Yes! We are dead serious. The latest news from North Korea is that Human feces fertilizer is now available from your local fertilizer store.
Shops selling human excrement began operating in North Korea this year, as acute shortages of fertiliser in the sanctions-wracked country put a price on faeces, an analyst said.
Human feces fertilizer, who would have thought it would come to this!
Aid groups have said human waste has long been used on domestic crops in the impoverished communist state, but there is now a trade in the readily available commodity, a North Korea analyst told a seminar at a South Korean university.
“Each household used to use human excrement as fertiliser. But because it’s hard to keep up with the amount, ‘human manure’ shops showed up at markets,” Kim Young-Soo, a professor at Seoul’s Sogang University, told the seminar.
The lack of fertiliser has become acute since South Korea stopped annual shipments of rice and fertiliser to North Korea in 2008, amid worsening relations.
I guess that human waste, or should I say Human feces fertilizer, is not waste after all.
