Sewage Sludge (Milorganite) as Fertilizer: A Skeptic's View

Opinion on sewage sludge (Milorganite) spread on land? Decent attempt beyond Scotts, but I don't fully trust it.

Why Skepticism

• Heavy metals? Toxic waste? Undisclosed chemicals?
• Food labels lie: 100% beef ≠ 100% beef; "organic" milk from unhappy cows; Vitamin D on label ≠ in box.
• If they hide food ingredients, why trust fertilizer labels?
• Anti-EPA administrations enable sneaky practices.

My Compromise

Use Milorganite once/decade — hope to be proven wrong. Other 9 years: compost, manure, humus, cover crops. Plenty of alternatives.
