Answer: A. They are used as fertilizer on hay fields.

Solid wastes are the unwanted wastes that are generated by different sources such as domestic wastes, agricultural, and industrial wastes. These wastes are treated with several waste management processes such as use of landfill, incineration, dumping and humification.
