Cleaner Technology Projects in Denmark 1997
Anvendelse af kompost i grønne områder 1990-95
Arbejdsrapport nr. 80, 1997, Miljøstyrelsen
This is an appendix report containing examples of the use of compost
within the park and the landscape sectors
(the green belts). The examples have been divided on the basis
of typical tasks within the sectors and describe practical experiences - not tests of
cultivation. Most of the examples are based on usage in the period 1990-95 in Denmark, but
a few are based on the usage in the period 1987-89. The report is a follow-up to the work
report (Arbejdsrapport) no. 40, 1990, made by the Danish Environmental Protection Agency
(Miljøstyrelsen).
The report describes approx. 75 located uses of compost (first of all garden/park
compost) coming from 25 different compost plants with reference to 45 interviewees. The
information has been procured from phone interviews in the period from July 1994 to
January 1996, and a third part is furthermore based on the authors inspection of the
stands. The interviews have been focused on the people with the best knowledge on the
area, with regards to usage as well as later care and growth, and there has been made an
effort to get information about at least two growing seasons from the same stand.
The experiences have been compiled in the principal report where they are compared with
information from the literature. The principal report gives some suggestions on the use of
compost for the various tasks within the park and the landscape sectors.
