Question

why is using compost better than using fertilizers in a garden?

Answer 1

Compost contains organic matter which enriches the soil by providing microbes and nutrients. Compost is a result of waste products which has many microorganisms such as earthworm bacteria and fungi which also enhances the quality of soil. On the other hand fertilizers are chemicals which are harmful also. They can disturb the microbes and organisms of soil. As compost is a natural product so it is more useful. If fertilizers are used too much it can move through crop and consumption of those crops create a bad impact on health in long term.
