Composting offers an opportunity to recycle food waste as a soil amendment. A three year growth trial was conducted to determine the fertilizer nitrogen (N) replacement value of food waste composts for cool season perennial grass production. Six composts were produced in a pilot-scale project with two composting methods (aerated static pile and aerated, turned windrow). The aerated, turned windrow method simulated “agitated bay” composting systems, which utilize routine mechanical agitation. Compost bulking agents included yard trimmings, yard trimmings + mixed paper waste, and wood waste + sawdust. Finished composts had Kjeldahl N concentrations ranging from 10 to 18 g N/kg. For the growth trial, composts were incorporated into the top eight to 10 cm of a sandy loam soil at application rates of approximately 155 Mg/ha (about 7 yd3/1000 ft2). Tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb. ‘A.U. Triumph’) was seeded after compost incorporation, and was harvested repeatedly at a late vegetative growth stage (Apri...
