Material crushing is crucial for fast composting
In order to accelerate the decomposition of the starting material, we have to shred particularly hard and bulky organic waste.

Composting is a biological process. In order to initiate and accelerate the process of composting, it is necessary to improve the living environment of the microorganisms involved in the process of composting, and therefore it is necessary to take into account the specific needs of these microorganisms. The following factors are particularly important.
The key to making compost is to create excellent living conditions for aerobic microorganisms to create excellent living conditions. Only with the help of these microorganisms is it possible for organic waste to be decomposed without producing odor.
First, mix approximately the same weight of green garden waste (i.e., cut grass) with brown waste (i.e., dead plants).
Once the material is well mixed, chop it up as much as possible to speed up the composting process. You can use a machete or sharp shovel, or a lawn mower to press over the mixture. Or you can put the mixture in a metal bin and chop it up with a weed whacker. The smaller the material, the faster it will break down.
We all know that when making compost, kitchen waste should be separated from garden waste. This is because kitchen waste can attract rats and other city pests! Therefore, we need to use a safer or "protected" system for this type of composting.
In 2020, only the EU produced a total of 225.7 million tons of municipal waste, of which up to 50% of municipal solid waste is biological waste.
Any substance that contains biodegradable carbon can be used to make compost. However, not all substances are suitable for making your own compost in your home garden. The following is a list of materials that are suitable as well as unsuitable for home composting.
It is easy for newcomers who do not know much about composting to misunderstand this work, thinking that they just need to put the composting materials together and let them "fend for themselves", but do not realize that composting is also a technical activity. If you want to produce organic compost that is conducive to plant growth, there are three necessary principles you need to master.
Green broad bean pods are rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium nutrients, easy to collect in the city, clean, and sanitary.
