Manure

A useful source of soil nutrients

Farmyard manure has been used as a fertilizer in agriculture for centuries. It remains a valuable source of soil nutrients. Farmyard manure is the result of the decomposition of organic material in the barn. Examples include straw, hay and animal droppings.

This is a natural cycle that increases soil fertility and crop yield as a sustainable way.

Solid manure composting creates odors. When the decay process is faster and more efficient, odors can be prevented. A decrease in harmful gases also follows. BioAktiv offers the solution.

Manure

Manure and organic manure are a crucial link in sustainable agricultural practices. Farmyard manure and solid manure contain an abundance of nutrients essential for healthy crop growth. The process of barnyard manure composting plays a vital role in maximizing soil health benefits.

Manure composting

Farmyard manure and organic solid manure are a rich source of nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. However, before applying them directly to the land, it is advisable to compost them.

Composting is a natural process. Here, microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi break down organic matter into stable humus. The result is (organic) farmyard manure that is safer, more nutritious and easier for plants to absorb. 

The role of microorganisms

Microorganisms play a crucial role in the composting process. They break down the raw organic matter into simpler compounds, releasing nutrients. In addition, they help microbes convert potentially harmful substances into more stable and harmless forms.

When composted (organic) farmyard manure and solid manure are used in the field, the microorganisms present contribute to soil health. They do this by promoting soil biology and beneficial enzymatic activities.

Benefits of (organic) farmyard manure:

1. Improved soil structure: Organic compost improves soil structure by promoting aggregation. It results in better water infiltration and air circulation. This creates a favorable environment for root growth and microbial life.
2. Nutrient release: During the composting process, nutrients are gradually released. This occurs in a form that can be more easily absorbed by plants. This prevents over-fertilization and minimizes the risk of leaching into the environment.
3. Disease suppression: The heat generated during the composting process can kill harmful pathogens. This reduces the likelihood of soil-bound diseases.
4. PH regulation: (Organic) farmyard manure can help balance soil pH. This is essential for creating a favorable environment for plant growth. It helps prevent soil acidification or alkalinity.
5. Microbial life: (Organic) farmyard manure is a food source for numerous microorganisms in the soil. These include bacteria and fungi. These microbes play a key role in breaking down organic matter. This releases nutrients that plants can absorb.

What do we offer?

Composting (organic) farmyard manure and solid manure is an essential step to maximize the benefits of these fertilizers. This process makes the manure safer, more nutrient-rich and better suited to the needs of plants. In addition, it encourages the presence of beneficial microorganisms in the soil. This benefits overall soil health and crop productivity.

Are you striving for sustainable agriculture and a healthy ecosystem? Then composting organic farmyard manure and solid manure is a step in the right direction.

We offer: BioAktiv-MZ for treating solid manure. When composting solid farmyard manure, smells are produced. If the decay process is faster and more efficient, odors can be prevented.

The result is a decrease in harmful gases including ammonia, methane and nitrous oxide. The mature compost has an excellent consistency for further processing.
