Bio-compost behaviour as soil additive by food waste pretreatment on the growth of Abelmoschus esculentus L.: a systematic review

Food waste (FW) has always been a significant issue faced by almost all countries worldwide. The rise in FW does not only influence one’s food supply, yet the greenhouse gas (GHG) emission such as methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) gas leads to global warming and health issues. This paper review...
