Richard ,
 
I do not thimk so. There is a difference between decomposition and
parasitic organisms and non-decompositional organisms.  You can ask the
company, they are not just a manufacturing plant, but a non-profit research
institution. Request that they contact Dr. Higa for conformation, he is an
agricultural specialist.  They also have an interest in seeing there
technology work and many times provide technical assistance and training.
This could be a big area for them so I am sure they will be cautious and
helpful.

A quote from John Warren - "You never know when, where, how, or under
what circumstances, you will see something, hear something, read
something, experience something, or meet someone who will change your
life forever.  Look for those experiences in 1998!"
 
"Technology is of no use to us if it is used without respect for the earth
and its processes." -- Aldo Leopold
