Why can you use cow dung to make organic fertilizer?
Cow manure belongs to organic waste, which will cause negative effects under improper handling. Therefore, as one of effective ways to dispose cow manure, making organic fertilizer from cow manure will be best choice for you. And this characteristic depends on two aspects:
- Advantage of cow manure: Cattle manure contains amounts of grass and grain, which is rich in nutrients and organic materials. Meanwhile, there are many enzymes and microorganism in it. Therefore, wide sources, low cost and high nutritive values make cow manure become good raw materials of organic fertilizer.
- Harm of direct use: Because of high ammonia content and excess salt content, the direct use of cow manure will do harm to plants. Hence, you should convert it to organic fertilizer, so as to fully utilize its nutrients.
Given the above, you can make organic fertilizer from cow dung, which will improve soil condition, provide nutrients for plants and promote output of crops. The following is detailed introduction of cow dung processing machine.
What preparations should you do for manufacturing organic fertilizer from cow dung?
Composting is an important procedure for you to initially dispose cow manure. For fresh manure with 80% water content, you should dehydrate it to 50%-60%water content by SEEC solid-liquid separation machine or adding moderate crops straws or rice hull. On the contrary, for dried manure, you should add some water to adjust water content to 50%-60%. After this, you can make a compost.
