Compost

The Compost bin is used to create Humus, an item necessary to grow crops. Before crops can be planted, the field must be prepared by placing Humus on it.

To produce Humus, fill the Compost bin with a variety of items. Over time, the bin produces one Humus as long as there is material to be composted. The amount of material remaining in the bin to compost is indicated by the red progress bar on the right of the window. Items that can be placed in the Compost bin are: any mushroom, any plant, any berry, any meat, any seeds.

To fill a Compost Bin: Autumn Grass: 50 units Meat Shreds: 34 units

Notes: Pretty sure that this is unlocked with the Agriculture skill, but if it's not correct, fix or contact me on the Salem forum or IRC channel. --MagicManICT 20:32, 16 January 2012 (MST)
