Phase of maturation
After the phase of fermentation that lasts about 30-40 days, the silo is emptied. The compost is stored on a maturation area where it will cool down.
This handling is always the opportunity to analyse and weight the compost.
There is very little microbiological activity during this phase of maturation: at surrounding temperature, it is the micro wildlife that settles in.
Thus the product is stabilized and moisturized so as to get a homogeneous aspect (brown).
After 4 weeks of maturation a sample is taken to compare the finished product with the relevant NFU standard.
