Bone meal
v50.14 · v0.47.05 This article is about the current version of DF.Note that some content may still need to be updated. |
Bone meal is an item with no use that appears frequently in night troll lairs in adventurer mode, but does not normally appear in dwarf fortress mode. It currently has no use (although obviously made of bone, [BONECARN] creatures have never yet been observed consuming it) and appears only to be a prop, but word of god is that it may eventually be a fertilization component (going the way of potash). There is a custom food stockpile options for bone meal that does not actually do anything except confuse the occasional wayward player; perhaps that is how you ended up at this page in the first place.
In real life, bone meal is a primitive food supplement made by grinding bones into a fine powder. Producing it in a future version of Dwarf Fortress would be simplicity itself: just mill leftover bones at a millstone or quern.
