Anyone with experience in using Alfalfa Pellets and Shredded Beet Pulp as an organic NPK supplement for fruit trees?  
I am wondering if putting one of these in a food safe IBC tote add water and let it age.  Does this make sense?

My experience of trying to compost in a plastic barrel was very bad. Liquid pooled, went anaerobic, and produced lots of methane. What a stink!
