Reasonable treatment and utilization of cow manure is crucial for the sustainable development of agriculture. And the composting cow dung is a key step in converting cow dung into organic fertilizer, which accelerates the fermentation of cow dung and improves the quality of fertilizer. What’s more, cow dung composting equipment not only helps to improve soil fertility, but also plays an important role in environmental protection. Therefore, the production process of composting cow manure has important practical value.
What’s the price of cow dung composting equipment?
The price of a cow manure composition system can vary greatly depending on its size, degree of automation, material handing capacity and other factors. And the price of a cow manure composting is usually at $30,000~$80,000. And the following are prices of cattle manure production for different factors.
The Price Of Large/Small Scale Of Cattle Waste Compost System.
Usually, the higher the capacity, the higher the price of the cow dung production is. And here is a rough price range of different scales.
In addition to the price of the equipment itself, transportation costs, installation and commissioning costs, you should also consider the operation and training costs. Because the price will change with the market and suppliers, and you need to refer to the actual quotation.
The price of high and low automatic deegree of compost machine.
High Automatic Degree Compost Machine.
The in-vessel fermentation tank offers a highly automated and enclosed solution for cow manure composting. Its price ranges from $30,000 to $110,000, depending on capacity. This system automatically controls temperature, moisture, and oxygen. It produces compost in just 7–15 days, with minimal odor. If you have limited space or face strict environmental regulations, this compact fermenter is an ideal choice.
Low Automatic Degree Composting Machine.
There are also cow dung compost machine cost lower than automatic compost system.The crawler-type compost turner costs between $105,000 and $280,000. It is designed for windrow composting, either outdoors or under a roofed structure. Unlike the fully automated fermenter, this machine requires one operator during composting. However, it offers excellent flexibility, high turning efficiency, and strong adaptability for medium to large-scale operations.
In addition to the factors you need to consider, selecting a cow dung manure system also require consider the cost of any additional options and accessories. And raw materials costs and labor costs may also vary depending on the manufacturing location. Therefore, when choosing a cow dung composting machine, you need to consider all of these factors that you can buy equipment meets your needs.
Collecting fresh cow manure that can be mixed with straw, sawdust or other carbon source materials. This step is helpful to adjust the carbon to nitrogen ratio to the ideal ratio 25:1~30:1. If the nitrogen content is too high, it will produce ammonia, which is not conductive to compost fermentation. And if the carbon content is too high, it will lead to slower fermentation.
Adding some fermentation strains can help improve the quality of cow dung compost as well as shorten the fermentation time. Adding suitable fermentation strains, such as actinomycetes, photosynthetic bacteria, yeasts, and spreading them evenly on the cow manure according to the formula ratio recommended in the instructions.
In addition to the methods mentioned above, you should control the temperature at 50℃~65℃ in the process of cow dung composting. And during the process, you can add water and fungicide according to the real condition.
How long does it take to make compost with cow dung?
The time interval for turning cow dung compost usually depends on several factors, including the size of the compost pile, the initial condition of the material, the climate conditions, and whether a fermentation strain has been added. Normally, the whole process of composting cow dung needs 2-4 months, which costs too much time. Our company can help you shorten the composition period to 15-20 days and improve the quality of cattle dung compost. And if conditions permit, you can determine the timing of turning by monitoring the temperature of the compost pile.
In addition, YUSHUNXIN also provide our best service for you that we can answer every question you asked. And if there is any problem with the machine, we will solve it immediately. In conclusion, choosing our company is the best choice for you to compost you materials.
