Chicken manure
Chicken manure is a top-quality fertilizer that, in addition to being used on the field, is also very suitable as a substrate for use in biogas plants. A particularly high gas yield can be achieved with chicken manure, which means that this fertilizer offers a very good price-performance ratio when used in biogas plants.
We can supply you with chicken manure all year round according to your requirements and quantity needs.
Application
Application is based on the fertilizer regulations. Autumn fertilization is possible with up to 60 kg total N for winter oilseed rape, winter barley and catch crops. Top dressing in spring with appropriate spreading technology is also possible and has been practised successfully in many parts of Germany for many years. A maximum of 170 kg of N from organic fertilizers may be applied per hectare per year.
Storage
Storage at the edge of the field or on a silo/storage plate is possible if the legal requirements are met.
Advantages
Chicken manure is an inexpensive slow-release complete fertilizer of the highest quality, it promotes soil life and soil fertility. When used regularly, it builds up humus and noticeably improves the soil’s ability to retain fertilizer and water. Particularly noteworthy is its excellent suitability for use as a biogas substrate, as you can achieve a particularly high gas yield with chicken manure.

Effectiveness
With the exception of nitrogen, all nutrients are 100% available. If chicken manure is used in spring, for example, approx. 60-80% of the nitrogen can be expected. With autumn fertilization it is approx. 30-50%. As a rule, there is a very sustainable recurring N effect.
Advantages
Our high-quality organic fertilizers
Up to 70 %
Cost savings compared to mineral fertilization.
Nutrients
It contains the main nutrients NPK as well as CaO and MgO and important trace elements (Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, Mo, B).
Humus build-up
The build-up of humus improves the soil properties and secures the yield.
Physical soil properties
Increased water storage capacity & water holding capacity, better aeration and faster warming of the soil.
Chemical soil properties
Clay-humus complexes increase the nutrient storage and nutrient retention capacity and thus the plant availability of nutrients.
Microorganisms
promote soil life and improve the conversion of organic matter. The soil is more vital and resistant.
