Morgan Composting designs, manufactures, and distributes powerful soil amendments and blends for Michigan and beyond. It all began in 1996 when Brad Morgan had a manure management problem on his dairy farm. Brad and his father decided to take a gamble on an idea to use manures and waste products that others were trying to dispose of to make something valuable.Brad started making DAIRY DOO - an organic, thermophilic, and weed-free designer compost that is full of the biology soil needs to grow the healthiest plants possible. DAIRY DOO is more than a backyard compost. It’s specially designed to restore health to depleted soils without the use of harmful chemicals. DAIRY DOO has a specic recipe, much like baking a cake, in order to create a consistently high-quality product.Today the cows are gone and instead the original farm is used to produce a whole line of DAIRY DOO products: DAIRY DOO Organic Compost, Custom Blends made specic for your soil, Organic Potting Soils, Organic Granulated Fertilizers, and Sustainable Liquid Amendments.Brad was, and still is, a farmer through and through. He is passionate about soil health and creating sustainable practices that benet everyone. Today his sons have joined the business and are committed to a healthier Michigan for all.The DOO Crew is here to serve you!

Page 7One of the biggest concerns when working with manures in vegeta-ble food production is food safety. If not managed properly, manures present the risk of E. coli, coliform, and listeria outbreaks. The im-portance of food safety and best management practices are made clear by the all-too-common E. coli outbreaks in lettuce we see on the news.At Morgan Composting, we are no stranger to manures and the necessary precautions that must be taken. While it seems easiest to say, “no manure allowed in vegeta-ble production” this is generally not an economically feasible option. This is especially true in organ-ic agriculture, where alternative nitrogen sources can be extremely expensive. It also negates the use of a valuable commodity that, if not reused in the agricultural system, can present major environmental and water quality concerns for everyone. It can also present major manage-ment problems for farmers with ex-cess manure forcing them to landll their manure or nd alternative, and often expensive, solutions. Proper best management practices, found to the left, can negate the concerns presented by manures and ensure they are used to their fullest economic and agro-nomic potential.Compost can be allowed for use in food safe systems much closer to harvest than raw manure, on the stipulation that it has gone through one of the FSMA approved com-posting methods. Currently, there are 2 approved methods of com-posting to meet food safety stan-dards. All of Morgan Composting’s DAIRY DOO Compost and Compost Blends are produced using the thermophilic “turned windrow” method. We keep temperature and turning logs and ensure our com-post reaches a minimum of 131°F for 15 days, with a minimum of 5 turnings during that time. We then allow for adequate curing before sale. To ensure that the composting process was effective, we sample every batch for salmonella, E. coli, and L. monocytogenes. Since our compost and compost blends meet the requirements laid out by FSMA, there is currently no preharvest interval dened by FSMA for properly processed compost. That being said, best management practices should seek to avoid contact between compost and vegetables, especially high-risk crops such as lettuce and broccoli.Still unsure if raw manure or com-post ts better into your growing plan? Call us for a consultation at 231-734-2451!Food Safety: When To Use Manures Vs. CompostWhen Using Raw ManureRaw manure presents the greatest risk in food safety. The current requirement laid out by FSMA when using raw manure is a minimum of:• 120 days between application and harvest for crops that contact the soil• 90 days for crops that do not contact the soilBest management practices, especially with 90 day crops, should avoid soil-to-vegetable contact from things like tires, ladders, shoes, and other possible sources of contact. Fall applications can be a great option for higher risk crops, as it allows a long period between application and harvest.Morgan Compostinginc.Ag Product CatalogMorgan Compostinginc.Why You Can Trust DAIRY DOO Compost Blends:✓ Our record keeping goes above and beyond industry standards✓ We add on our own Quality Control requirements, including MCI Toss Testing✓ We keep advanced turning and temperature logs✓ All our compost reaches a minimum of 131°F for 15 days , often top-ping 140º.✓ There is a minimum of 5 turnings during the above 15 days✓ We allow curing before sales✓ We test every batch
Page 8Layer Ash Blend (Can certify organic)Average NPK: 2-2-2 7CaApprox NPK in Pounds Per Ton: 43-43-43 150CaThis is a custom mix that is based around Layer Manure. It takes the best of the Layer Manure world and combines it with DAIRY DOO Compost and Sili-K. This blend adds microbiological activity, calcium, silica, potash, and carbon to the soil while also releasing locked up nutrients. This increases water-holding capacity.Layer Ash Blend has been used in recent potato trials conducted by Marisol Quintanilla, Ph.D., at the Department of Entomology at Michigan State University. Her trials revealed Layer Ash Blend is a powerful tool to use against harmful nematodes in the soil. To hear more about her research please visit dairydoo.com/potatoes.Mix consists of: Layer Manure | DAIRY DOO | Sili-KUse with: all row crops, grains, and pasture crops.Recommended Rate of Application: 1-2 tons per acre, depending on soil health.

Page 13When signs of fall are in the air farmers start thinking forward to fall applications and decid-ing which, if any, products they’ll use on their elds to strengthen soil health for next year.Why a Fall Feeding MattersIf you’ve never fed your soil in the fall, you might wonder why anyone bothers. Why spread manure or compost in the fall? Because when you do, you open up the potential of utilizing your own crop residue as next year’s plant food. What was once a problem- capable of attracting insects and disease- is now part of the solution.With a complete soil health man-agement system that is utilized year after year, which includes a fall application, it is possible to drastically change the makeup of your soil which changes the entire game of growing.What Products to UseWe have multiple compost sites throughout the state of Mich-igan. One, our Fennville Site, is operated in cooperation with Schipper Poultry and where we make several of our DAIRY DOO Compost Blends that are based on poultry manure. Our K2 Blend and PoultryDoo (formerly known as Poultry Compost), are both great options to try in your eld this fall. “K2 is really quite simple. It’s layer manure with gypsum with [DAIRY DOO] compost,” says Brad Morgan, President and CEO of Morgan Composting. “The compost is in there for a biological stim-ulant. The gypsum is in there mainly to protect and actually add the sulfur and the calcium to the blend and it really makes for a very, very nice product.”“It’s a very, very mellow product,” he continues. “There is still tem-perature to it but it’s very, very smooth- most of the gypsum has actually been incorporat-ed, the nitrogen from the ma-nures and the carbon from the compost- all have interacted. It spreads very easily, very nice to work with.”Brad is also a fan of using our PoultryDoo in the fall. “Anytime that we are talking in the fall applications, we’re talking about the potential of breaking down crop residues. And compost, and especially poultry compost, is designed to break down residue. So as we’re heating it up, as we’re going, we’re growing basically bacte-rias and fungi that are residue breakers- they break down resi-due.”How to Get Help With Your Soil HealthIf you’ve spread fall applications every year or if you’ve never tried, the Soil Health Experts at Morgan Composting can help. Reach out with your most recent soil test and discover which DAIRY DOO Compost Blend best ts your eld’s needs. Then you can decide if a fall application is best for you. “Anytime I can take your crop residue,” says Brad, “get it ready for the next year, it’s like adding 80-100 pounds of potash. It’s like adding and bringing back the phosphorus that it actually needs. So all that crop residue that was left back that had the potential for insects, disease, all of these problems, has now be-come part of the system that’s going to be back into plant food which is actually going to be usable material.”Call the Soil Health Experts at Morgan Composting today at 231-734-2451!Fall Applications: What to Use and WhyBrad MorganMorgan Compostinginc.Ag Product CatalogMorgan Compostinginc.
Page 14What happens when you routinely farm a eld without putting anything back into the soil? Eventually it catches up to you- reducing the quality and quantity of your yields and hurting your pocketbook.“Alfalfa hay is very demanding on soil and it basically takes an awful lot of nutrient to grow the type of volumes of hay that we need to produce in Michigan,” says Brad Morgan. “So nding some application of fertility in between cuttings is almost a necessity to keep up on the production and yields that we need.” A trend in farming is to wait un-til the soil has been drastically depleted and then try to x the problem with heavy amounts of product. We would dis-courage this approach because it costs you more money all at once and its harder on the soil.“If you’re not con-stantly feeding some potash, maintaining the pH, what’ll happen is there will be an en-croachment of grass-es coming into your alfalfa at a much faster rate than you really want,” Brad continues. “People have a tendency to want to put one, two, even three ton of lime [on the eld] to bring the pH back up to where it [needs to be]. We’re trying to encourage people NOT to allow it to go to that point. Let’s not deplete the soil, let’s constantly manage the soil so we are maximizing production constantly.”Our recommendation is to be constantly watching your soils, amending it with smaller amounts of product, and de-veloping a consistency that will help your plants thrive while being easier on your wallet. To meet this need, we have devel-oped both organic and con-ventional blends specic for hay production- whether that is alfalfa or a grass/pasture.“We know adding fertility in between cuttings is an added cost, but the truth be known, with the extra cost of equip-ment, labor, land rent, all of the above, yields are so critical to be able to run that equipment over. So the fact is, if you’re not doing something in between cuttings, you really need to assess where your econom-ics are within your program because you’re going to have to constantly be feeding that plant. You can’t take four, ve, six, seven, up to twelve ton per acre of biomass off from a eld consistently without replen-ishing...at some point in time remember, you’re stealing and you’re taking away from your-self if it’s not a steady, constant reinvestment into it. I’ve farmed all my life and if we’re not con-stantly looking at the econom-ics of what we’re doing, it won’t be there for us in the future.”Check out the different Hay & Pasture blends from Morgan Composting now or give us a call at 231-734-2451 to talk to a Soil Health Expert.DAIRY DOO’s DAIRY DOO’s Hay & Hay & Pasture Pasture ProgramProgramMorgan Compostinginc.Ag Product CatalogMorgan Compostinginc.

Page 16Morgan Compostinginc.Ag Product CatalogMorgan Compostinginc.Each pass across a eld costs farmers money- money to run the tractor, the cost of labor, and time taken from other projects. Each pass also causes the soil to compact even more.As he does, when Brad Morgan looked at the problem, he saw a solution. Instead of one pass across the eld to add biology and another to up the missing nutrients and then a third to add another missing ingredient, he said let’s do it all in ONE pass. He developed Custom Blends from DAIRY DOO, a way for farmers to get everything they need and want in one easy application.How to Order a Custom BlendIt starts with a soil test to determine exactly what a eld needs. You can use a soil test you already have, order your own, or we can help you with one. Then our Soil Health Experts build up a proposal for a blend that revives your tired soils. You take a look and to make sure it matches your goals and budget and then the DOO Crew gets to work. Each blend is mixed and ipped multiple times and checked for quality. Then the blend ships to you or is ready for pick up.More of DIYer? Build Your Own Blend!Maybe you’d rather take the lead on building a blend up to your specications? No problem!

Page 17Using compost for increased tuber yields is not a new concept, but in the last decade or so, a renewed interest in learning exactly how it works means that scientists are actively researching the eects of compost on soil health, harmful nematodes, returning biology to the soil and releasing locked-up nutrients to grow the most marketable potatoes possible.Dr. George Bird, nematologist and professor emeritus at Michigan State University (MSU), still completes research on the impact of compost on soil health. A decade ago, Dr. Bird coordinated a soil health survey of 96 potato elds in Michigan. e Cornell University Soil Health Lab tested samples from each eld for chemical, physical and biological factors. After analyzing research, Dr. Bird concluded these sites had outstanding scores for soil chemistries, with little or no room for improvement.With regards to the physical and biological factors, however, these sites did not score well. Dr. Bird found growers knew how to utilize some compost and commercial fertilizers to net high yields, but had a lack of soil biology across the board as well as issues with compaction and other physical problems.Since, Dr. Bird has made it his mission to educate growers on how they can improve on the areas where their elds showed problems, such as by utilizing higher quality compost and expanding their use of compost. While researchers are still guring out exactly how much compost growers should use and the soil health benets, Dr. Bird is sure that growers know that by using compost, they are growing a better product. “If any farmer that you work with starts changing what they do, and after doing it several times if they continue doing it, that is the bottom line, the answer is it is working,” Dr. Bird said.Dr. Bird also believes the growers are using compost as something called a “pulsing agent” which can awaken biology in the soil — sort of like water hitting a dormant bacterium. e nitrogen that lives in soil is primarily tied up in living and dead organic matter, inaccessible to tubers. e microorganisms in compost also will consume that organic matter and excrete the nitrogen in a form that plant roots can absorb, meaning compost can help unlock inaccessible nutrients for potato plant development and tuber yield.Harmful nematodes are another area where compost has been shown in research studies to be a boon to potatoes. Dr. Marisol Quintanilla, research nematologist and assistant professor at MSU, recently proved that 100% compost will kill all harmful nematodes. e next step that Dr. Quintanilla is working on is guring out what is the optimal amount of compost to use, considering costs and benets, since 100% compost would also reduce tuber yield.Dr. Quintanilla tested the rates of composted manure that most growers use — about 1.5 to 2 tons per acre — and concluded this rate would provide signicant control of harmful nematodes, reducing the population. Future testing will check other rates to ensure that the results of the study will provide the best rates for growers to use. In eld tests, the same plots also showed a “signicant dierence in vascular discoloration that happens when verticillium goes into the plant,” Dr. Quintanilla said.Dr. Bird and Dr. Quintanilla complete tests with a variety of compost blends from Morgan Composting, to see which type of compost is best for potatoes and to help Morgan Composting craft better customized compost for potatoes and other crops. “I am a real believer in compost technology, because compost technology helps soil chemistry, makes soil physics better, and it also enhances the biology that is necessary to make the soil work,” Dr. Bird said. “e beauty of the Morgan Composting company is that if you know what compost you need, what the properties are, Morgan Composting will make you a designer compost to ll that bill,” he continued.Ultimately, the goals of this research and of Morgan Composting’s eorts to customize compost for each grower’s needs are to promote sustainability and cumulative eects.Brad Morgan started Morgan Composting after seeing the waste that his former dairy farm produced. In the 1990s, Morgan began to sell composted manure, known as DAIRY DOO, to growers to solve soil health issues that the industry was facing.Morgan Composting believes that using the right compost blend combination for each eld oers cumulative eects for growers, helping reduce the chemical impact agriculture has on our environment, managing waste problems, reducing compaction and helping to overall increase sustainability.“I think the longer-term success is from sustainability, actually reducing the use of other chemicals and pesticides. Where Morgan Composting ts in is the predictability aspect. We do a lot more testing and have invested into more research and product development than any other company that I am aware of. I believe I can have an inuence on changing the biological performance of soil,” Morgan said.To learn more about the customized compost blends created specifically for potatoes by Morgan Composting, visit dairydoo.com.Compost blends: a key to optimizing soil healthFrom Spudman's August 2021 publication.

Page 22Your plants are only as healthy as the soil they grow in. Lacking fertility and poor soil health directly results in unhealthy plants and low yields. Soil health should be very important to everyone- from small backyard gardeners to the multi-thousand-acre farmers. To obtain healthy, high yielding plants with the best avor or highest forage quality, you need to make sure your plants have the fertility and nutrition they require.Pay Attention to Your PlantsPlants are directly impacted by the health of your soil, making them good indicators of what is going on beneath the surface. Here are a couple of telltale signs that your soil has an issue you need to deal with.Get a Soil TestWhile plants can be a good indicator of fertility and soil health problems, it is best to be proactive and take a soil test before planting. Soil tests can be taken in the spring or fall. These test results will take out all the guess work and help you discern exactly what is missing from your soil. The recommendations will also tell you what is required for the specic plants you are growing. Not only is soil health important, but the optimal conditions for one plant can kill other plants (for example, the optimal pH for alfalfa will kill blueberries). By getting a soil test with plant specic recommendations, you are better able to pick the right product to get your soil health where it needs to be. When working with a DAIRY DOO Custom Compost Blend you can dial in on exactly what your soil needs and compile it into one blend. There are immense benets to this, including ease of spreading, saved trips across the eld, and even distribution of fertility.Fill in the Missing Pieces – But Only If You Need ToOnce you know what your soil needs, it is time to add it back in. Adding fertilizer without caution can cause a whole host of new problems, including deciencies of other nutrients, yield reduction, and plant burn from excess nutrients. Putting too much nitrogen, calcium, or phosphorus into your soil can cause other issues like plant burn, high pH which limits the uptake of other nutrients, or even environmental issues like Algae Blooms in surrounding lakes and streams.

By combining one of our liquid products with other foliar applications you already plan to do, such as irrigation, herbicides, or pesticides, you can get the short-term x you need to get your crop through until harvest with very little additional cost. Made with humic and fulvic acids and kelp, our products, such as HumiKelp and Kelpful, will get you the carbon you need, increase plant resistance to stress, and produce a better crop at the end of the season.“Any plant in Michigan right now, at some point and time, they’re always going to be looking at either drought stress, insect stress, over-water stress, but there’s always going to be a stress. These products can make a big difference [and] anytime that sprayer or that planter or anything can go that I can apply carbon within that system, I look at that as a free ride. The cost of the material becomes very, very minimal,” says Brad Morgan. “Our company has always been very strong in soil health and making certain that we have good economic sense of the products that we’re putting together. So as we walk into the liquid market we want to make sure people understand what we are trying to achieve. Understand liquids are not necessarily a whole soil management plan but they sure can be a nice boost when you see that there’s some sort of decit within your system.”The liquid barn at Morgan Composting’s Sears location where fulvic and humic acids are manufactured.Take a Look at the Liquid Line from DAIRY DOO

Page 26FulvicBlaster (2.6 pH)FulvicBlaster is a highly concentrated, liquid carbon product designed for foliar application. It is a natural source of carbon that binds to and carries a wide range of trace minerals and elements, drawing them in between the cells of the plant. Once in the plant, it helps stimulate plant metabolism by translocating nutrients throughout the plant. It also improves nutrient efciency and increases enzyme activity and cell division, increasing growth. In soil-less greenhouse mediums, it is a valuable addition to the environment, creating stability by buffering and reducing stress to the young, emerging seedlings.Foliar Application:Apply 1 to 2 quarts (1 to 2 liters) per acre of FulvicBlaster with 10 to 20 gallons (38 to 75 liters) of spray solution (rate depending on frequency of application).Fertigation or Transplant Water:Use at 1:100 dilution or 1 to 4 quarts (1 to 4 liters) per acre.

Page 27Morgan Compostinginc.Ag Product CatalogMorgan Compostinginc.HumicBlasterHumicBlaster is a ready to use liquid soil conditioner designed for soil application. It is a natural source of carbon to help increase the soil organic matter. This improvement allows the soil to better hold on to both nutrients and water by, improving the efciency of any product. The organic acids and sugars contained in it work to stimulate and support a strong microbial population, and are essential to plant health. Humic acid is very good at tying up salts in the soil, preventing some of the negative effects of high salt. The alkalinity of this product makes it non-corrosive and easy to work with in regards to blending with other products. Its low viscosity makes it easy to use in sprayers, nozzles, and various irrigation systems.In-furrow Application:Apply 1 to 2 quarts (1 to 2 liters) per acre of HumicBlaster with 3 to 5 gallons (12 to 20 liters) of fertilizer solution.2 x 2 Starter Application:Apply 2 to 4 quarts (1 to 2 liters) per acre of HumicBlaster with 5 to 20 gallons (20 to 75 liters) of fertilizer solution.Side Dress Application:Apply 2 to 4 quarts (2 to 4 liters) per acre of HumicBlaster with 5 to 20 gallons (20 to 75 liters) of fertilizer solution.Foliar Application:Apply 1 to 4 quarts (1 to 4 liters) per acre of Humic-Blaster with 10 to 20 gallons (38 to 75 liters) of water (rate depending on frequency of application).Fertigation or Transplant Water:Use at 1:100 dilution or 1 to 4 quarts (1 to 4 liters) per acre.

Page 29Morgan Compostinginc.Ag Product CatalogMorgan Compostinginc.KelpfulKelpFul effectively combines the benets of both fulvic acid and sea kelp extract. Kelp contains many plant hormone promoters that stimulate desired responses within your crop. The unique ability of kelp to relieve stresses is further aided by the action of fulvic acid to draw these effective compounds into the cells of the plant. It can also reduce transplant shock or chemical burn from over application of fertilizers. Many of the other benets of this combined product are improved quality attributes, such as rmness, color, size and crop uniformity. KelpFul is an excellent vehicle for other fertilizers, chemicals, or natural minerals to get into the plant and translocated with its structure. It will combine well with most compounds, making it easy to use in the eld. Because it can improve the efciency of whatever it is combined with, many farmers and they can use less fertilizer while still being effective.Foliar Application:Apply 1 to 4 gallons (4 to 15 liters) per acre of KelpFul with 10 to 50 gallons (40 to 190 liters) of spray solution (rate dependent on frequency of application).For use with eld crops, vegetables, fruit and nut trees, vines, brambles, turf grass, owers and ornamentals, etc. etc. etc.Fertigation:Use 1:100 dilution or 1 to 4 gallons (4 to 15 liters) per acre.

Page 34Dr. George Bird, of the Department of Entomology at Michigan State University, has been doing a study for the last ve years on the impact of compost and mulch on the establishment of cherry trees. For his study, he used DAIRY DOO products. On some trees he tried adding Seed Starter 101, an organic potting soil that includes DAIRY DOO compost but is gentle enough for bare-root planting, at the bottom of the planting hole and DAIRY DOO compost as a topdress. In others, he added mulch and/or omitted the Seed Starter 101. His control group did not receive any compost or mulch.The conclusion of the study was impressive! Dr. Bird found that cherry trees that were given Seed Starter 101 at the bottom of their planting hole in addition to DAIRY DOO compost as a topdress had a yield increase of over 236% versus the control trees that did not receive any compost!Interested in more than 3x your current fruit yields?

Raising yourmower deck to at least 3 inches willleave your grass longer, creating acanopy that shades out weeds.-Longer grass also creates deeper rootsystems - the best defense against grubs!-When aerating your lawn, use small hollow tines. Roll theplugs back in or topdress with TOPSOIL BLEND or DAIRY DOO.-Products like crabgrass killer will also prevent your grassseeds from growing. Instead, use a combination of raisingyour mower deck and reseeding every 6 weeks to crowd outweeds.-If you decide to use a herbicide, only spot spray whennecessary and in the cool of the day.-Leave grass clippings and chopped up leaves on your lawnto break down into the soil naturally - returning nutrients tothe soil.
