Turning chicken manure into organic fertilizer

Kazi Farms prefers composting over biogas for productive use of poultry litter

Large egg farms in Bangladesh have a problem: they produce a lot of smelly manure. Farmers buy manure during a certain season; the rest of the year it piles up, and provokes complaints of odour and flies from neighbouring households. Some large farms have found that the best way to manage this problem is to convert the manure into organic fertilizer. 

Kazi Farms Group is one of the largest poultry producers in the country. Considering the increasing demand for organic fertilizer, and the need for better management of poultry manure, they have moved to produce organic fertilizer from poultry manure.

Bangladesh is an agriculture-based country, with 80% of its population earning their bread from the sector. These people tend to use cheap chemical fertilisers. Continuous use of chemical fertilizer reduces the fertility of the land, according to Shah Mohammad Arefin,AGM, Kazi Organic Fertilizer Ltd(Kazi Farms Ltd) told the Dhaka Tribune.
