Nematode communities and macronutrients in composts and compost-amended soils as affected by feedstock composition

► The first study on nematode communities in both composts and compost-amended soil. ► Differences in used feedstocks did not influence the nematode community in compost. ► Immature composts displayed unbalanced nematode communities. ► Nematode increase in the soil can be caused by the addition of compost nematodes. ► Chemical soil properties could be linked to type of compost and used feedstock.
