southern MN | Didn’t read the article yet, but recycling human waste is the only proper thing to do.
Go green with the brown and yellow.
I would not want it on garden crops, and there used to be if not still rules on that? But feed crops seems a perfect use?
The trouble is lot of industrial waste gets flushed into the same systems, and that can create heavy metals or other less desirable stuff in the slurry. Separating those systems would be expensive so I don’t know an effective big scale system.
As well we have ever increasing drugs, legal and illegal, going into the waste stream. I’m not sure that is a good thing, I don’t know how effectively some of those break down in a short stay in a waste handling setup. I’m concerned anyhow.
If we could snap our fingers and erase those two issues, I think it should be about criminal to -not- use human waste in the circle of feed to food raising.
I believe many towns across the landscape do use municipal waste as a soil fertilizer in surrounding farm fields?
