Why we need to compost chicken manure? Because if you want to recycle chicken poop and make it into organic fertilizer, it is necessary to ensure that it can supply nutrients to crops without any harm. But chicken manure usually contains many parasite eggs, metal elements and pathogens, which will pollute the soil and affect the growth of crops. Composting is a process of decomposing organic matter in chicken poop into nutrient substances, which are easier to be absorbed by plants. In this process, the decomposition will also generate a large amount of heat, which can kill all harmful substances in chicken manure.
