Granulated chicken manure fermented with potassium humate Ekor-K.
Company «BIOstrategy», in collaboration with domestic specialists, has developed and implemented a technology for producing organic fertilizer from composted chicken manure. This technology preserves the original value of the fertilizer and prevents nitrogen from turning into ammonia, which negatively affects the quality of the product.
This product is the result of fermenting chicken manure into high-quality compost, which is then dried at high temperatures and granulated. The fertilizer is presented in the form of cylindrical, dark brown granules with a diameter of 5 mm and a length of about 10 mm, without a strong unpleasant odor. The bulk density of the granules is 600-650 kg/m3.
The products of the «BIOstrategy» company include BOMF, which are comparable in effectiveness to mineral fertilizers but surpass them in their positive impact on soil and plants.
«BIOstrategy» specializes in developing innovative solutions for processing chicken manure and peat-sapropel mixtures into granulated bio-organomineral fertilizers (BOMF). Our BOMF are effective in combination with bacteria and mineral additives, helping to significantly increase crop yields and improve soil health.

Raw materials and initial processing:
Fresh poultry manure with bedding is used to produce the fertilizer. It is delivered to the site and mechanically mixed with a solution of a potassium humate-based enzyme preparation made from peat. This solution accelerates the process of converting manure into high-quality compost, eliminates unpleasant odors, and reduces ammonia nitrogen emissions. At this stage, unpleasant odors disappear, and ammonia is transformed into forms that are not harmful to plants.
Aeration and fermentation:
At the next stage, compost piles are formed and repeatedly turned using specialized equipment for at least 72 hours. This process provides aeration, which is necessary to activate microbiological processes. As a result, ammonia is converted into nitrous and nitric acids, ensuring nitrification and subsequent denitrification. By the second or third day, the ammonia concentration is reduced to a minimum, and the resulting nitrites and nitrates begin to be absorbed by plants.
Effect of potassium humate treatment:
The use of a potassium humate-based enzyme preparation accelerates nitrification and converts nitrogen into absorbable forms. This is a crucial stage that increases the biological value of the compost, making it suitable for use as a fertilizer with a high nitrogen content.
High-temperature drying:
After fermentation is complete, the resulting compost is subjected to high-temperature drying at over 250°C. This stage ensures:
The drying process uses a gas heat generator, ensuring process stability and product safety.
Grinding and preparation for granulation:
The dried product is ground into a powdery mass, which simplifies its further granulation. Specialized machinery is adapted to harsh conditions and ensures high efficiency in drying and grinding.
Granulation:
A matrix granulator is used to produce the fertilizer in granular form. Under high pressure, the loose product is transformed into granules with a diameter of 5 mm and a length ranging from 4 to 15 mm. The granulation line also includes cooling and sieving to remove dust, which is then sent for reprocessing.
Packaging:
The final stage is the packaging of the finished product into industrial containers such as "big bags" (FIBCs) weighing 1,000 kg. This packaging prevents moisture penetration and preserves the quality of the fertilizer throughout the storage period.
