what to do with horse manure?
As a large quantity of horse poop, composting horse manure is key to protecting the environment of your farm. Meanwhile, it is also a valuable nutrient resource for plants.
However, you cannot use horse manure as fertilizer without fermentation. Because it contains many eggs and germs which will spread diseases and insect pests. Furthermore, after the horse manure is applied to the soil, it will produce harmful gases such as methane and ammonia during the process of decomposing and fermenting horse manure. Consequently, it will damage the root system of crops. While through horse manure composting systems, you can use it as fertilizer freely.
What Are Problems in Horse Manure Composting Systems?
When composting horse manure, you may get confused. Here’s something you need to know about horse manure composting systems.
What ratio should horse manure be in compost?
You should adjust the carbon-nitrogen ratio of the fermented fertilizer to 25:1 and 30:1, and keep the pH between 6-8. Among them, the carbon-nitrogen ratio of horse manure is 12.7, and the carbon-nitrogen ratio of wheat straw is 97. If the carbon-nitrogen ratio is adjusted according to 30, the ratio of horse manure and wheat straw is 4:1. However, you may need to adjust the amount of carbon/nitrogen within your pile depending on the type of bedding used.
After mixing wheat straw and horse manure according to the ratio, add 2 kg of diluted biological fertilizer fermentation liquid per cubic meter of mixed material.
What is the Fastest Way to Compost Horse Manure?
Horse manure fermentation in a natural way needs 3 to 6 months. Nevertheless, it often takes you about half a month to compost the horse manure with a compost turner.

How to Compost Large Quantities of Horse Manure?
3 characteristics of composting systems
Good Performance
Your Content Goes HereThis compost turner can flip materials with a depth of 1.5m-3m and with a maximum width of 30m. In the case of deeply piled materials, it uses less power to complete high-depth, long-span turning operations through the unique energy-saving transmission mechanism.
Better Control
There is a fully automated electrical system. Furthermore, its hydraulic lifting system can adjust the automatic lifting of the turning plate to ensure that the equipment can move without obstacles. Therefore, you can adjust the speed and frequency of turning to create optimal conditions for composting. It can help reduce labor costs, as they require less manual effort than other types of compost turners. This can make composting a more cost-effective and efficient process.
Versatility
You can use it for a wide range of organic materials, including horse manure and waste.
