They will have to do that too...
Yes but it would have to be direct and much more upfront. Another interesting thing about Mars is that it has no life or at least none that we know of. If a body was placed in the Martian soil to become part of the food cycle it would not, it would just stay there. There is nothing to eat it in the soil. We would have to place bodies in a green house or even eat it ourselves. But even in a green house the bones might be an issue, can we afford to waste calcium like that? We might not be able to and the plants won't deal with it in any hurry.
