Since its inception in 2001, FORCE has filled the need for environmentally sound, economically feasible methods, and practical and applicable solutions for recycling and utilizing organics and agricultural wastes. FORCE activities during 2010 and 2011 included two research and demonstration projects to explore the feasibility of composting different blends of organic feedstocks to include animal manure, yard and food waste, including meats.
The purpose of the original Grant Program was to enable FORCE to solicit proposals from private and public sectors to perform relevant demonstrations, research and educational programs. FORCE sent out a Request for Proposal on Organics Research, Education and Marketing & Demonstration Projects. The Following eleven proposals were reviewed and awarded in an effort to further advance composting research, demonstration, education and marketing in Florida. These projects have all been completed.
