Biosolids at the Farm Gate

Approximately 15,000 tonnes of dry solids (t DS) of biosolids are spread onto agricultural land throughout Western Australia (WA) annually by a select number of farmers as a substitute to commercial inorganic fertiliser. The costs and management of spreading biosolids are typically perceived as bein...
