in a much better way First we have to dig the ground. (v)| Then we spread sand on the floor of the pit so that the pit remains open for a longer time. (i)| Then we can add the waste we planed to throw in the pit. (vi) | We have to then cover with grass so that the pit remains closed. (iii) | Moisture is required for wastes to decompose. (iv) | We can later place red worms, as they are very good decomposers_ to speedthe decomposing proccess. (ii)|
