Animal manure, a seemingly useless waste, is actually a precious organic resource. Through careful fermentation, it can be converted into an efficient and environmentally friendly organic fertilizer that provides a continuous supply of nutrients for agricultural production.
First, collect fresh animal manure from farms, zoos, etc. Ensure that the manure is not contaminated with chemicals or antibiotics to ensure the quality of the fertilizer after fermentation.
Next, the collected feces are water-conditioned. Add an appropriate amount of water to the feces to keep its moisture content at around 60%. This not only ensures the growth environment of microorganisms, but also contributes to the dissipation of heat and the decomposition of organic matter during the fermentation process.
Organic fertilizer fermentation bacteria are added to the manure, and these microorganisms will become the "protagonists" of the fermentation process. They break down organic matter, produce heat and carbon dioxide, and at the same time produce an acidic metabolite that provides favorable conditions for subsequent fertilizer formation.
After mixing thoroughly, place the manure in a suitable container to form a pile about 1 meter high. During fermentation, temperature and turnover operations are key. It is generally recommended to tip over twice, and after each tipping, you should replenish or reduce water according to the actual situation.
After 10-15 days of fermentation, the animal manure will be gradually converted into organic fertilizer. This process not only releases a large amount of heat energy, but also increases the decomposition rate of organic matter, making it easier for plants to absorb and utilize.
The fermented organic fertilizer can be stored for plant planting, floriculture, etc. This organic fertilizer is rich in organic matter and trace elements, which can improve soil structure, improve soil fertility, and provide a steady stream of nutrients for plant growth.
During the whole fermentation process, it is necessary to pay attention to the control of temperature, humidity and ventilation to avoid the generation of odors and pollution. At the same time, in order to ensure the quality and effectiveness of organic fertilizers, it is recommended to test and evaluate them before use. In addition, it is also necessary to pay attention to the appropriate amount of organic fertilizer when using it to avoid negative effects on the environment and plants.
