Human composting in Washington State

Sounds like North Korea to a certain extent. Human bodies and feces are not something I want fertilizing food crops, or anything else. North Korea makes each household produce 220 pounds of human feces a year, or they are taxed. The people there are adding coal and dirt in the feces because they are falling short of the quota. There are little holes in the areas around the homes where they are digging the soil up to add to their shortage.

I know that human feces is what causes salmonella. To eat root crops from this type of fertilizer is something that I could not stomach. I always felt that the migrant workers were crapping in the spinach fields where they work. Probably wiping their butts with it too.

Knowing that a human body has been added makes my stomach tie in knots.

That is some crazy$&@ $&@&. When we were sitting in on a “training certification “ for some programs to do with our farmers market a few years ago they were saying not to use manure unless it was properly composted because even if the manure had set for ten years it was still considered green manure. The farmers around here have cleaned out there barns and lots and put it on their gardens for years and no problems. Danged if I would want any compost of dead animals or humans either on my garden or any where on the farm for that matter. That is just too disgusting and wrong to even think about.
I think in a sense it is just another way of dehumanizing people, and diminishing the value of human life even if it is at death. I have always had the belief of respecting life and having a respect for the dead.

That has been in the works for a few years.  Not a good plan in my opinion.  I have seen several chicken composters.  They work.  Farmers need a way to get rid of the dead chickens.  The university studied composting cows.  They work after a fashion but you still have bones left when done.  So if you compost a person what do you do with the bones?  Also for compost to really work you need to turn it every week or so..... Not a real pleasant job with chickens.  I can't imagine doing it with a human.

Compost makes better fertilizer than manure, on a volume basis. If done well only the teeth remain, and you can just spread them with the compost.
Sounds like a business that could have unlimited profit potential.
Just think about it, these left coast tree huggers will be paying you to turn them into fertilizer, which you can use grow grass and crop. Your only cost will be a semi load of wood chips, a TMR mixer, and spreading the compost.
Better yet, we could just feed them to hogs, and chickens, and double productivity!
