Effects of crop straw and furfural residue on microbial communities and maturation in swine manure composting

Key Points

• Microbial communities shifted significantly during composting, leading to enhanced maturation.
• Key changes included increased diversity and abundance of beneficial microbes based on compost duration.
• Assessment using microbial community analysis shows distinct differences with the addition of crop straw and furfural residue.
• Implications suggest that optimizing composting methods may improve waste management processes.
