Notes from our own records on chicken manure and poultry waste processing into organic fertilizer.
YUSHUNXIN solutions on chicken waste processing is to make organic fertilizer from chicken manure. As the byproduct of chicken breeding, the disposal of chicken waste is a difficult problem. On the one hand, if you freely pile chicken manure up the ground, it may pollute surrounding air. However, if you directly apply fresh manure to soil, it will do harm to root system of plants. On the other hand, chicken manure is rich in potassium, nitrogen, phosphorus and balanced nutrients. Therefore, converting chicken waste into organic fertilizer will be good choice. But how to make organic fertilizer from chicken manure? YUSHUNXIN recommend three methods, making chicken manure compost, producing powdery chicken manure fertilizer and commercial chicken manure fertilizer pellets.
Making chicken waste compost---an easy way to manage chicken manure Composting is the easiest way to convert chicken manure into nutrient-rich materials---compost. Then you can use chicken waste compost as base fertilizer. In order to make quality chicken poop compost, you should do the following works and use the following machines:
Preparing chicken manure and auxiliary materials: Collecting chicken manure is the first step. The auxiliary materials refer to straw, rice hull, sawdust, bedding, pine shaving and other C-rich materials. The addition of them is to adjust C/N ratio and moisture. These auxiliary material should be small in size. And you can adopt YUSHUNXIN straw crusher to achieve ideal size.
Making compost heaps to stack chicken manure: You can pile chicken manure and auxiliary materials together in long rows or in fermentation grooves. You can choose suitable composting methods according to site space and volume of chicken waste.
Turning the chicken manure regularly: Before composting, you can adopt composting equipment to mix materials evenly. When the temperature of compost pile achieve 65 or 70℃, you can turn materials 2-3 times/day. After one week, you can reduce turning frequency to one time for 2-3 days. When the temperature and volume of compost pile no longer decrease and the odor disappear, you will get chicken manure compost. With the help of YUSHUNXIN compost turner, you can finish chicken waste composting in 20-30 days.
Selection of chicken manure compost making machine: Groove type compost turner is used for composting in fermentation grooves; windrow compost turner (self-propelled compost turner and crawler type compost turner) is suitable for composting in long rows. All of them just need one person to operate. The former one uses electric and the latter uses diesel oil.
Chicken Manure Windrow Composting Process
How to make organic fertilizer by chicken waste processing equipment? According some investigations, there are 70% water content, 25.55% organic matter, 1.63% nitrogen, 1.54% phosphorus and 0.85% calcium in chicken manure. In order to fully utilize these nutrients, you can chicken poo fertiliser with YUSHUNXIN chicken waste disposal equipment as well as composting. There are two types final products for you to choose, powdery and granular chicken manure organic fertilizer.
Powdery chicken waste organic fertilizer processing As one of production methods, powdery organic fertilizer processing is easier and needs less equipment. And the detailed steps to make powdery organic fertilizer are as follows:
Crushing: Now that you want to manufacture powdery organic fertilizer from chicken manure, you need to crush potential caking. And the crusher will help you to crush potential caking and produce evenly powdery fertilizer.
Screening: It is the final disposal before packaging. In order to get high-quality powdery organic fertilizer, you need a screening machine which will leave qualified organic fertilizer powder and select products with unqualified sizes. And these unqualified products will be sent back to crusher for secondary crush.
Granular chicken waste organic fertilizer processing Granular organic fertilizer is another production form. It needs more steps and equipment to finish production. The production procedures include crushing, screening, mixing, granulating, drying and cooling, coating and packaging process. The first two steps of powdery organic fertilizer and granular organic fertilizer are same.
Screening process: YUSHUNXIN rotary screen machine can guarantee uniformity and purity of chicken manure compost. In addition, this process also appears after fertilizer pellets cooling. The screen machine can select out unqualified fertilizer pellets from qualified fertilizer pellets. In this way, the quality of final product will be guaranteed.
Mixing process: This step is used for mixing chicken poop compost and other added materials evenly, so as to create uniform fertilizer efficiency. The ratio of different materials can be controlled by YUSHUNXIN batching machine.

Besides single machine, we also offer the whole production line. And the following machines are part of our machines for chicken waste processing.
Chicken waste grinding machine You can apply this kind of crusher both in composting process and deep processing procedure. For organic waste with water content less than 50%, you can adopt semi-wet material crusher to crush it, which can make them become smaller for fully fermentation. One the other hand, the fermented chicken manure may exist some caking, which cannot be directly used for compost fertilizer production or granulation. Therefore, you can apply semi-wet material crusher to crush caking and make qualified crushing granularity. Besides semi-wet material crusher, we also have new type vertical crusher and hammer crusher for organic fertilizer production. They are similar in function, but different in construction and working principle.

Enough to bring the C/N to about 25 : 1, which for layer manure can mean one or two volumes of straw, sawdust or green waste per volume of manure. The exact ratio is set from the measured nitrogen content and the amendment's own C/N.
Yes, with an aerated static pile system, and it is often the better choice because litter heats strongly and aeration can be controlled. Turned windrows are also common where land allows.
Nitrogen is being lost because the C/N is too low or the pile has gone anaerobic. Adding carbon, mixing promptly, and keeping the pile aerobic reduce it; the nitrogen retained is nitrogen your product is paid for.
