    Effectiveness of "Bokashi" compost in breakdown of pre-consumer food waste
    (Towne's Harvest Garden, 2013-06) Appling, Talinna; DePartee, Max; Eddy, Zachary; Rychener, Paul
    Our student group tested the effectiveness of the Bokashi composting approach, comparing carbon dioxide emissions during a 1 month laboratory incubation and 6-week field incubation of pre-consumer food waste at Montana State University. Preliminary results are presented suggesting there is little difference in decomposition dynamics between pre-consumer food waste alone (control), food waste amended with Bokashi, and food waste amended with soil.
