I understand there are some health concerns about using human fertiliser for food with particular regard to the spread of disease.
It worked well for the Japanese - I wonder if these health concerns are really just our squeamishness?
- rmason 5y agoIn Michigan it's against the law to fertilize crops with human waste. Actually knew a farmer in the seventies who got caught and was fined for doing it. The reason is because it can spread disease causing pathogens to the crop. I'm not certain how the Japanese got around that. Or perhaps people got sick from it and they hadn't yet figured out the cause.
