Description

Steven Ramos-Romero and nine co-authors test composts made from cheese whey and farm waste on soil harmed by volcanic ash. Ash can load soil with heavy metals, which puts food safety and health at risk. The study came out in twenty twenty-six.

The team built three compost piles with the same crop waste and cow manure but with no whey, watered down whey, or full whey. They tracked heat, chem-istry, and life in the piles as they matured. Next they grew lettuce in pots across five soil mixes, from plain soil to compost blends, and checked how the plants grew to judge if the composts help clean the soil.
