Composting

I am enjoying composting - I agree it seems to take a lot of stuff to produce fertilizer but coming up with ways to do it is interesting.
In my current play-through I have a crew of 9 and three composters supplying fourteen growbeds that produces enough food and some spare.
I have had to buy some fertiiser once, and I have taken to buying fibre and body parts to compost, which I never did before - also I now kill pirates specifically to compost them, which is kind of satisfying.......

It would be good if there were a way to turn soft scrap into fibres.

Also, I noticed that you can deconstruct alien 'objects' to get biomass.
