YLAD Living Compost is the Australian and New Zealand distributor of Midwest Bio-System’s Aeromaster Composting and Tea Extraction Equipment, a system designed to convert waste residues into high quality humus compost with the ability to be used for Compost Extraction
After establishing YLAD Living Soils as a major supplier of biological fertilisers and services in 2002, Bill and Rhonda Daly of Young NSW introduced Humus Compost Technology into Australia in 2006 after attending Midwest Bio-System’s Advanced Composting System (ACS) Workshop in Ocala Florida in 2005.
Rhonda recognised that Humus Compost was a natural fertiliser that addressed the physical and biological aspects of soil fertility in addition to the chemical aspect and how this would greatly benefit Australian agriculture from a "soil-plant" point-of-view.
The Aeromaster line of compost turning equipment coupled with the Advanced Composting System (ACS) methodology and supporting microbial inoculants provide compost producers a means to consistently produce high value, high quality humus compost.
YLAD Living Compost ran the first ACS workshop in 2006 where Edwin J Blosser of Midwest Bio-systems, world recognised authority on Humus Compost, educated participants on the science and production of Humus Compost and the use and value of Humus in agriculture.
YLAD Living Compost have now sold and set up over 50 Composting systems throughout Australia and New Zealand as well as educating thousands of people on value of high-quality humus compost in food production.
Aeromaster Tea Extraction Units were first imported into Australia in 2010. This technology introduced a new more efficient, economic method to produce compost tea with more species diversity, humus polymers, enzymes, and minerals in a stable form. This equipment allows farmers to set up on farm as a DIY operation avoiding the costly expense of shipping liquids and gives masses of flexibility. With over 40 units around Australia these units have allowed farmers to move from a laboriously slow system of brewing to an efficient, economical model of extraction.
YLAD Living Compost is the connective link between converting waste residues into high quality humus compost for agriculture and food production and is being adopted by Biological and Regenerative Farming as a way of building soil organic carbon and soil life.
YLAD Living Compost manufacturing base and head office are in Young NSW, and they distribute Humus Compost, Compost Mineral Blends, Humus Liquid Extracted Tea, Inoculum products and Aeromaster Composting Equipment throughout Australia.
