With the continuous expansion of livestock and poultry breeding scale, chicken farms will produce a large amount of chicken manure, which has become one of the main sources of environmental pollution. At the same time, chicken manure is also a valuable feed and fertilizer resource. It is crucial to properly handle chicken manure. The "Environmental Protection Law" implemented on January 1, 2018 in China clearly states that "environmental taxes will be levied on farmers with a stock size greater than 50 cows, 500 pigs, 5000 chickens and ducks." Whether livestock and poultry manure meets the standards becomes the key to paying environmental taxes.
Chicken manure treatment has always been a major issue as friends of chicken farmers know. Many chicken farmers often shuttle through stinky chicken coops to clean up the chicken manure in the coops. Especially in summer, mosquito and fly breeding seriously affects the environment of the chicken coops, easily causing outbreaks of chicken plague, and other situations. Chicken manure treatment has become an important link in the health of chickens.
Currently, there are many methods for treating chicken manure. In summary, there are three major methods, namely, outdoor treatment, fermentation, and chicken manure power generation. Open air treatment is a relatively common method of fermentation. Chicken manure is directly processed by chicken farms or used by surrounding farmers, who often undergo simple drying treatment of chicken manure and put it into farmland for use. This is the most direct treatment method, and the operation is simple. It only requires manual drying in an open area. However, there are many drawbacks to this operation method. First, the fermentation is slow and incomplete, and some salts will remain in the chicken manure, which will restrict the permeability and activity of the soil, solidify important elements such as phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, zinc, iron, boron, and manganese, resulting in abnormal plant growth, sparse flower buds, and poor fruit growth; Secondly, after the incompletely fermented chicken manure is put into agricultural use, the chicken manure begins to generate heat at a certain time, resulting in crop root burning, seedling burning, black root, and yellowing, and in severe cases, plant death. Third, unfermented chicken manure carries a large number of pathogens, such as root knot nematodes, which are easy to hatch and cause the transportation of water and nutrients in the roots of crops, causing crops to turn from strong seedlings to weak seedlings, and eventually die.
Machine fermentation is mainly used to ferment chicken manure into feed or organic fertilizer. The feed generated through fermentation machine processing can be used as pig feed, fish feed, cattle feed, etc. Organic fertilizer is mainly produced through three methods: plate fermentation, wine tank fermentation, and mechanical fermentation. Among them, mechanical fermentation is currently a relatively good fermentation method. The livestock and poultry manure can be fermented into organic fertilizer in the form of an organic fertilizer fermentation tank. On average, the livestock and poultry manure can be fermented into organic fertilizer in about a week. The Bolong organic fertilizer fermentation tank has a wide range of adaptability, both north and south, and is not affected by temperature. Even in cold regions of Russia, it can still ferment as usual in winter. Bolong chicken manure fermentation tank has a high degree of mechanization, with one click operation for feeding, discharging, and temperature control, allowing one person to work, saving a lot of labor costs and processing costs.
"Chicken manure power generation is the process of converting chicken manure into electricity through fermentation ponds through biological treatment, which is currently not widespread in rural areas, and is believed to be a major direction for chicken manure treatment in the future.".
Chicken manure treatment has become an urgent problem to be solved, and friends on farms must pay attention to it. Open air treatment is simple to operate, but there are many drawbacks. The investment cost of chicken manure power generation is high, and it has not yet been popularized. Treating chicken manure through organic fertilizer fermentation tanks is a good option.
