Solution

Explanation: 2 Marks

Take a heterogeneous mixture of decomposing vegetable or food waste, bedding materials and vermicast, and put them in a compost pit. Microbes act on these dead and decaying matter breaking them into simpler molecules. These molecules become nutrients, easily absorbable by plants. This is how manure is formed.
