[compost_tea] Compost Tea and NOP
Hi All,
It is my understanding that NOP makes recommendations and 
rules.  These are two very different things.  Only their rules are 
legally binding, not their recommendations.  To date, I know of no 
rules to say compost tea must be treated like raw manure.  The 
posted response to Mr. Jaszewski's letter refers to NOP "policy". 
This is based only on a recommendation.  Certifiers can make their 
own decisions regarding compost tea because their are no rules 
regulating its use.  There are NOP accredited certifiers who have 
said compost tea is fine to use without the raw manure restrictions. 
OMRI has allowed compost tea provided all ingredients meet their 
specifications.
If someone knows otherwise please let me know.
Hope this helps,
Tim Livingstone
