Livestock manure, such as pig manure, horse manure, sheep manure and cow dung, contains a number of nutrient elements. Therefore, you should deal with livestock manure by composting, so as to convert it into nutrient-rich organic fertilizer.During aerobic composting, microorganisms will decompose organic matters in livestock and convert them into nutrients that can be directly absorbed and utilized by plants. Meanwhile, the heat produced from microorganism activity will kill pathogens, weed seeds and eggs, which can prevent soil pollution and plant disease. By composting, you can get useful fertilizer from livestock waste. Thus, aerobic composting is an excellent manure management technique. In SEEC fertilizer machinery, our company manufactures dedicated composting facilities to process the livestock manure into composts, such as horse manure composting machines, turning machines for chicken manure composting, cow dung fertilizer composting facilities, etc.

What should you do to composting livestock manure well?

  • Materials preparation: You should collect livestock manure and adjust its water content to 50% to 60% by manure separator machine. In addition, you need to add some bulking agents to adjust C/N ratio and increase ventilation of compost pile, such as sawdust, straw powder and so on. And then mix them together.
  • Compost pile making: You can place mixed materials in fermentation grooves or pile them in long windrows. The size of fermentation groove can be decided by compost turner you choose. In terms of windrow composting, it is usually 0.6-1.8m tall, 2-3 meters wide and as long as it could possible.
  • Regularly turning: The turning of compost pile can adjust oxygen content, release extra temperature and make fermentation more uniform. Because the turning frequency in early stage is high, composting machines are necessary.
