The use of compost tea in agriculture dates back thousands of years in
many different cultures. Greek, Egyptian and Mayan agricultural
practices all utilized compost extracts as a means of crop
fertilization and sustainable soil building. Today these same
practices are being implemented again through the use of compost and
compost teas for the same reasons. In addition to soil and plant
fertility, compost teas are also being incorporated into disease
suppression programs as an effective and economical alternative method
to standard chemical approaches. Compost tea is being used
successfully worldwide for:
Conventional farming
Transitional farming
Organic farming
