The raw materials commonly used by organic fertilizer equipment manufacturers to produce organic fertilizers are mainly crop straw, livestock and poultry manure, etc. There are requirements for the moisture content of these two raw materials. What is the appropriate range? The following organic fertilizer equipment manufacturers will introduce it to you.

When the moisture content of the material does not meet the requirements of fertilizer fermentation agent treatment, it must be adjusted. The appropriate moisture content is 50-70% of the wet weight of the raw material, that is, when the hand is tightly held, a little liquid appears in the hand crack without dripping.

Requirements of organic fertilizer equipment for materials such as straw: For materials containing a large amount of crop straw, the appropriate moisture content can make the material absorb water and swell and soften, which is conducive to the decomposition of specific microorganisms. However, excessive moisture affects the aeration of the pile, easily causes anaerobic conditions, and inhibits the activity of specific microorganisms.

Requirements of organic fertilizer equipment for livestock and poultry manure: Livestock and poultry manure with a moisture content of less than 40% can be mixed with manure with a relatively high moisture content and piled for 4-8 hours to adjust its moisture content to an appropriate range before adding fertilizer fermentation agent.
