Doug M. wanted a better waste management system and he wanted to produce high-quality compost that was fit for use on his pastures. His Benchmark System composts horse manure along with bedding and hay. The finished compost is used in the gardens, spread on pastures, and given away (volume permitting). Doug says his O2Compost Benchmark System is a "great visual addition to the property and a significant improvement and simplification of manure management."
