From the supplier: The use of human waste to fertilize farms despite unresolved issues on risks inherent in the practice has become a growing trend. Capturing the benefits of recycled human waste with minimal risk has increasingly become a challenge because contemporary waste flows are dirtier and therefore more toxic than those that existed in previous centuries. Recycling can be difficult in modern industrial economies for these economies mix materials in combinations and concentrations not typically found in nature.
