I met them at a show in Vegas in August, most of their marketing was
"manure" (I couldn't help myself), I should have said, they had a hard time
explaining to me how their numbers added up, strictly marketing with little
to no substance is what it seemed to me

I did find an interesting sort of, kind of, comparison of compost to liquid
compost : http://cowwow.net/products.html

This product claims that 1 quart of their liquid is equivalent to 135 cf of
compost. I do not know what their basis for comparison is.

On a per acre basis, 7 gallons of their liquid applied per acre is equal to
129 yards of compost applied per acre.

Also if memory serves that only 10% of the nutrients in compost are
available during the first year of application.
