Composting is a biological process of the breakdown of complex matter into simple matter. The present review describes in detail the various applications of compost viz., effect of compost on soil properties; reduction in bulk density; compost to improve soil biological properties and nutrient uptake. Compost is important for sustainable farming. The review also highlights use of compost in agriculture for the growth of plants. The applications of compost are very eco-friendly as it there is no any impact on the environment.
