Land spreading. If your company has sufficient land, it is possible to incorporate food byproducts
directly into the soil on site . A farmer can be paid to take the by-products to a
suitable field. Again, with proper management, food is kept out of the landfill and is used to
enhance the soil. Land spreading has the following benefits:
1. A separate compost facility is not necessary.
2. The finished product does not have to be stored.
3. The finished product does not have to be transported. It is left in the soil as a plant
nutrient.
