Farm Compost Turner – Fermentation is Only Step One; Drying Turns Manure into Marketable Fertilizer

Pre-Drying Equipment: Self-Propelled Turner for Farms – Fermented Material Should Be Dried with a Dryer for Commercial Organic Fertilizer

Product Introduction:

The self-propelled turner is the core equipment for aerobic fermentation of livestock manure. Through turning, aeration, and movement, it provides oxygen for microorganisms, accelerating decomposition, deodorization, and the elimination of insect eggs and pathogens.

But fermentation is only the first step. After the turning/composting process, the material (cow dung, chicken manure, pig manure, etc.) still contains 40-50% moisture – it’s still semi-wet. In this state, it cannot be granulated, packaged, or stored long-term – it can only be sold as low-priced bulk material.

To turn manure into truly valuable commercial organic fertilizer, deep drying is essential.

Recommended Solution: Turner + Dryer

• Turner/Composter: Aerobic fermentation, deodorization, pathogen elimination – converting wet manure into semi-dry fermented material

• Dryer: Deep drying to 10-15% moisture – producing odorless, sterile, baggable commercial organic fertilizer

After drying, the organic fertilizer:

• ✅ Odor-free – meets commercial fertilizer standards

• ✅ Optimal moisture content for long-term storage

• ✅ Ready for granulation and bagging – increasing product value

• ✅ Price doubles – from bulk at $30-50/ton to bagged at $120-180/ton

The turner handles fermentation & deodorization; the dryer locks in quality. Together, they maximize the value of manure as a resource.
