Nota: este curso se centra en el compostaje en caliente o termófilo, no en el vermicompostaje (compostaje con lombrices). Sin embargo, la información sobre los beneficios del compostaje y los antecedentes sobre el compostaje comunitario serán relevantes independientemente del sistema de compostaje que se utilice.
