How to Build a Small Organic Fertilizer Factory?

When planning the flow for starting an organic fertilizer factory, you should consider factors such as the type of raw materials, storage and usable workshop areas, and market demand.

Powder Organic Fertilizer Production Line Cost

Organic fertilizers can be divided into powdered and granular fertilizers. There are simple equipment configuration and low investment costs for a powdered organic fertilizer plant. The equipment required for a small-scale powdered fertilizer production line, from raw material fermentation to finished product packaging, costs around $50,000 to $100,000.

Granular Organic Fertilizer Production Line Cost

On the other hand, granular fertilizers require higher equipment configuration and relatively higher investment costs. The equipment investment for a small-scale granular fertilizer production line, including raw material fermentation, granulation, drying, and packaging, is approximately $200,000. As the production capacity increases, the equipment investment also increases. Conversely, lower production capacity requires smaller equipment investment.

Equipment Configuration of Organic Fertilizer Plant

The equipment required for an organic fertilizer factory needs to be determined based on the site conditions and raw materials. Due to different processes, the equipment used will also vary. The price of individual equipment for small-scale organic fertilizer production ranges from $3,000 to $8,000, and the configuration of each organic fertilizer production line may vary. A low-configured organic production line for chicken manure and pig manure organic fertilizer only requires a crusher, mixer, granulator (optional), screening machine, and packaging machine. Therefore, the price of a complete organic fertilizer production line ranges from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Selecting the Proper Location for Building An Organic Fertilizer Plant

When choosing a location for your organic fertilizer factory, consider the following factors:

1. Proximity to Livestock Farms

The organic fertilizer plant cannot be too far from the breeding plant. Chicken manure, pig manure, cow manure, duck manure and other livestock and poultry manure, have large volume, high water content, and are not easy to transport. If it is too far, organic fertilizer plant transport costs are too high.

2. Pay Attention to Distance

The organic fertilizer factory should not be too close to the breeding plant or located in the upwind direction of livestock farms to avoid the spread of diseases and to facilitate disease control measures.

3. Stay Away from Residents’ Living Areas

The organic fertilizer factory will produce foul gas in the production, which can not be in the living area of residents, nor can it be in the working area.

Conclusion

Remember, the choice between powdered and granular fertilizers depends on your specific requirements and budget.
