RRB Group D 2025 Question Paper (18-Aug-2026) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

It converts organic waste into useful manure

Composting is the controlled decomposition of biodegradable material such as kitchen and garden waste by microorganisms.

The process converts that organic waste into manure (compost), which returns nutrients to the soil and reduces the load sent to landfills.

It does not add non-biodegradable waste, and its purpose is to consume biodegradable waste rather than generate it.

Hence, the answer is that it converts organic waste into useful manure.
