Tero natural fertilizer and compost are similar since both are amendments resulting from the processing of organic matter. Both solutions are very beneficial for soil and plants because they provide organic matter and essential nutrients. However, there are differences in the transformation method and in the outcome. By definition, composting is a biological process requiring the input of microorganisms for its transformation, which is not the case with the Tero device that operates by a completely automated process.
The result of the Tero device is an organic matter very rich in nutrients beneficial for the soil, but especially, for plant growth.
The result of composting is a compost, sometimes containing less nutrients than a fertilizer, but very interesting for soil structure.
They are often used as a complement, mainly for fast-growing plants, such as fruit and vegetables, which are more demanding in terms of fertilization needs.
