What are the hidden dangers associated with chicken manure organic fertilizer production?

2025/09/28

The production process of chicken manure organic fertilizer equipment presents numerous hidden dangers, which are analyzed in detail below:

1. Environmental pollution risks: Traditional chicken manure fermentation methods (such as open-air windrowing and simple composting) are exposed to air and are prone to producing foul-smelling gases such as hydrogen sulfide and ammonia. Chicken manure may contain heavy metals (such as lead, chromium, and cadmium), which cannot be effectively removed during the composting process in the organic fertilizer production line. Long-term application can lead to heavy metal accumulation in the soil, affecting the quality and safety of agricultural products.

2. Production safety risks: Chicken manure contains pathogens and pests such as E. coli, Salmonella, and roundworm eggs. If applied directly to farmland without adequate decontamination, it can spread pests and diseases, affect crop growth, and even harm the health of consumers.

3. Production efficiency and quality risks: Traditional fermentation methods rely on natural ambient temperatures, resulting in a long fermentation cycle in winter. Although shortened in summer, this still cannot meet the needs of large-scale processing, resulting in the accumulation of chicken manure and the occupation of large amounts of land. During open-air fermentation, nutrients in the finished organic fertilizer are lost as rainwater washes away and seeps through.

4. Unstable Product Quality: Small composting sites lack professional equipment and technical guidance, resulting in inconsistent product quality. Some companies, to reduce costs, add chemical fertilizers to pass off as "pure organic" or fail to strictly adhere to harmless treatment standards, disrupting industry order.

4. Market Promotion and Awareness Risks: The high production cost of commercial organic fertilizers, coupled with farmers' misconceptions about their effectiveness, hinders market adoption. Some farmers lack understanding of the application methods and potential risks of chicken manure organic fertilizer. Direct application of under-composted chicken manure can lead to seedling burn and the spread of pests and diseases.
