How long does chicken manure need to compost

Introduce:

Regarding the knowledge of chicken manure fermentation, How long does chicken manure need to compost? Generally, it takes 2-3 months to ferment. If a starter is added to the chicken manure, it usually only takes about 1 month to ferment successfully. The following Look at it in detail.

How long does chicken manure need to compost

2-3 months

The natural composting fermentation of chicken manure generally takes 2-3 months. If a starter is added to the chicken manure and the temperature is suitable, the fermentation can be successful in about 1 month.

The temperature of chicken manure during fermentation is different, and it will be affected by other external factors, so the specific fermentation time should be determined according to the specific situation.

Naturally fermented chicken manure

When using the natural fermentation method to ferment chicken manure, first spread the chicken manure in a place with direct sunlight, pile the dried chicken manure together, and cover the top with a layer of plastic film, so that the compost can naturally heat up and ferment.

When the temperature inside the chicken manure rises to about 70°C, the plastic film can be removed, and the chicken manure is spread out to cool down until the temperature drops to 50°C, and the process of stacking and filming is repeated. Generally, this operation is repeated 2-3 times, and the chicken manure can be fermented into organic fertilizer.

How to store chicken manure

The fermented chicken manure has a faint fragrance, such as the fragrance of koji or tobacco, and it has a luster under the sunlight.

Fermented chicken manure can be compacted with plastic film, carefully sealed and stored strictly. Fermented chicken manure generally does not deteriorate when properly sealed.

How long does it take to ferment chicken manure in blisters?

Blister chicken manure fermentation generally takes about 15-20 days. Blister chicken manure is generally fermented for more than 30 days in winter and 14-21 days in summer.

Retting method:

1. Mix 100 catties of chicken manure into fertile soil and 2000 catties of miscellaneous fertilizers, add water and mix to make it into a hard mud;
2. Or the chicken manure is sealed and composted for anaerobic fermentation. Generally, it takes 3-4 months to decompose into water and fertilizer;
3. Or through biotechnology, using aerobic fermentation, the decomposing speed is 10-20 times faster than the traditional speed, and the fully decomposed chicken manure can hardly smell the odor.

Two ways to soak chicken manure:

1. Blister dry chicken manure: The formula is 1,000 kg of chicken manure, 0.25 kg of chicken manure starter strain, add an appropriate amount of water, preferably well water or river water.
2. Blister wet chicken manure: The formula is 700 kg of chicken manure, 300 kg of wheat bran or rice bran or straw powder, 0.25 kg of chicken manure starter strain, mixed with an appropriate amount of water.

How to use dry chicken manure?

1. Fermentation

Spread long strips on the ground with dry chicken manure, sprinkle with water, add rice bran, and turn the compost twice to form a pile.

Cover with a rectangular plastic sheet, open the plastic sheet every morning and evening to ventilate, and turn the pile once every 10 days. It takes about 20 days to complete the fermentation of chicken manure. The above chicken manure composting fermentation can use Small scale organic fertilizer production line, which can not only save labor, but also speed up the compost fermentation time.

2. Fertilization

After the chicken manure is fermented, it can be fertilized with chicken manure. Dig a trench around the fruit tree along the canopy away from the root, apply the fermented chicken manure, and then cover it with soil.

Dry chicken manure can be used directly. Dry chicken manure is a kind of natural fertilizer. The chicken manure is dried to form dry chicken manure blocks, or the dried chicken manure blocks are broken to form granular chicken manure.

Chickens cannot fully absorb the feed when eating, and the discharged chicken manure contains a large amount of nutrients in the feed, including 65% organic matter, 30% crude protein, and about 8% nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. Dry chicken manure can be used to fertilize fruit trees, flowers, trees, etc. For specific fertilization methods, please refer to Top dressing method of fertilizer application.
