This is the refill for the Bokashi Bucket. Bokashi is a generic Japanese word for "fermented organic matter". The Bokashi used in our Bokashi Recycling Systems is crushed Australian grain (usually barley, wheat and rice mixture) fermented with our beneficial microbes and molasses. This material has a moderate nutrient value on its own, but is also teeming with billions of beneficial microbes which go straight to work when in contact with organic material, such as the food scraps in the bokashi bins, or the organic matter within the soil.
The microbes work in an anaerobic environment - i.e. with no Oxygen - so they don't produce heat or odours, there is no leachate problem, and no insects or rodents either.
