question_answer 20)

For your agricultural field or garden, you have developed a compost producing pit. Discuss the process in the light of bad odour, flies and recycling of wastes for a good produce.

Answer:

The compost producing pit should be set at an appropriate place so that bad odour generated due to decomposition of waste does not reach to the residents. It should be covered properly as to minimize the bad odour and the flies do not enter into it. The recycling materials such as glass, plastics, paper, etc., should be separated from biodegradable wastes and should be handed over to the person who can use it for recycling process.
