2.2. Vegetable growing test
Since plants grown in a combination of soil and compost produced
from the KU composter had not been examined before, the
life cycle assessment and economic analysis could not be conducted.
Therefore, the study conducted a primary test on plantgrowth
first in order to examine how nutrients in compost were
able to grow vegetables and what the quality was for vegetables
grown with compost. The information collected was used to calculate
the fertilizer replacement and incomes by selling vegetables
nourished by compost.
