What Do you Need to Do Before Chicken Manure Compost?

In general, fresh chicken manure cannot be used to make compost directly. You need to process chicken manure step by step to make it suitable for chicken manure compost production. Including:

chicken waste

Collect Materials

In order to provide more nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium and other nutrients for organic fertilizer making, it is advisable to choose fresh chicken manure instead of old chicken poop. Fresh chicken waste can avoid contamination from antibiotics or other substances that could harm the composting process. In addition, you also need to collect some auxiliary materials, such as straw, sawdust, leaves, corn cobs, etc. They can balance the nitrogen content of the chicken manure and absorb excess moisture.

Dewatering

Fresh chicken manure usually has a high moisture of 70%-80%,even 90%. But for composting, the optimum water content of material is 45%-65%. Excessive water will block the passage of oxygen transportation, thereby affecting the effect of chicken dung aerobic fermentation. And there are two solutions to you. For one thing, as mentioned above, you can add dry auxiliary materials to absorb excess moisture. For another, you can use manure dewatering machine directly, which can reduce the water content of chicken poop to 30%-40%.

Mixing

Beside adding dry materials for moisture content adjustment, in order to make chicken waste into quality compost fertilizer, you may also need to add many other materials.

How to Choose a Suitable Chicken Manure Composting Machine for you?

However, if it is higher than 70°C, the beneficial bacteria are also at risk of death. So it is essential to buy a quality machine for chicken manure fermentation. Because when it starts working to turn chicken waste, the oxygen will be supplied to generate enough heat and excessive heat will be dissipated. But there are various chicken dung composters on the market, how to select the most suitable one for you? There are some tips for your reference.
