Large chicken farms produce a large amount of chicken manure every day, which brings many challenges to farmers. Tons of chicken manure every day are like time bombs. Improper handling will cause a chicken house crisis.
Chicken manure accumulation problem
1.The amount is huge
Large chicken farms produce an astonishing amount of chicken manure every day, which is very time-consuming and labor-intensive to handle. A single laying hen excretes 120-150 grams of manure per day, and a 10,000-feather chicken farm produces manure equivalent to 30 standard containers per day. The ammonia concentration generated by open-air stacking can reach 300ppm, which is 20 times higher than the safety standard, directly causing the surrounding vegetation to die.
2.A hotbed for the spread of diseases
The detection rate of Salmonella in fresh chicken manure is as high as 65%, and the survival period of coccidia oocysts in a humid environment exceeds 6 months.
3.The cost of chicken manure treatment is high
Under the traditional manual manure cleaning model, the annual labor cost of the 10,000-feather chicken farm exceeds 400,000 yuan, accounting for 18% of the total breeding cost.
4.Neighborhood relationship killer
The odor of 50 decibels of manure can still be detected 500 meters away, which caused group complaints from a farm, resulting in high compensation or forced closure.
5.High storage and transportation costs
Chicken manure is a moist and smelly organic matter. Wet chicken manure has a high water content (about 70%-80%). During storage and transportation, leakage and odor may occur. Long-term storage of chicken manure may cause decay, produce harmful gases, and increase pollution. Increase the difficulty of transportation and storage
Poultry manure treatment solutions
It can be stored and treated in manure fermentation tanks or compost piles to ensure that chicken manure does not come into direct contact with the air and reduce the spread of odor.
Mechanical and automated manure cleaning system:
The scraper-type manure cleaner can process an area of 2,000 square meters per hour, and with the conveyor belt system, it is 15 times more efficient than manual labor. The intelligent sensing device realizes dynamic monitoring of the water content of manure and automatically adjusts the cleaning frequency.
High-temperature aerobic fermentation:
The closed fermentation tank completes harmless treatment in 72 hours, and the core temperature is maintained above 70°C to completely kill pathogens. Retech Farming’s energy-saving and efficient fermentation tank can directly convert manure into granular organic fertilizer with a profit margin of 35%.
Important advantages:
1. Energy-saving fans are used, which can save more than 35%.
2. The fermentation tank is highly mechanized and easy to operate. Automatic temperature control, automatic stirring, automatic discharging, and automatic feeding functions.
3. Fast fermentation speed, 7-10 days of fermentation;
4. 304 stainless steel is used, which is corrosion-resistant and has a long service life;
Composting fermentation method
Mix chicken manure with straw and pile it up, cover it with a 10cm thick soil layer to seal it, and use microorganisms to ferment naturally (the traditional method takes 1-3 months). Adding fermentation agents can shorten it to 15-20 days, and the temperature rises to above 60℃ to kill insect eggs.
In large chicken farms, the treatment of chicken manure is both an important part of environmental management and a challenge in agricultural production. By using automated raising equipment and fermentation treatment, problems such as chicken manure accumulation, pollution and odor can be effectively solved. Fermented chicken manure can be sold as organic fertilizer to increase farm income, reduce environmental pollution, and achieve resource recycling.
