Why does chicken manure need to be fermented? How can we turn the waste that people dislike into a valuable feed source? Directly feeding animal manure to livestock can lead to serious health risks or economic losses, mainly due to the following reasons:
First, chicken manure often contains harmful pathogens. These include bacteria, viruses, and parasites that can affect both animals and humans. For example, untreated chicken manure may carry Newcastle disease virus, avian influenza, salmonella, and even Clostridium botulinum. In some cases, these pathogens have led to large-scale outbreaks in cattle, causing severe illness or death.
Second, the presence of drug residues and chemicals in the manure is another major concern. Many farmers use antibiotics and anti-coccidial drugs in poultry feed, which can end up in their waste. Feeding this directly to other animals can cause long-term health issues, including heart damage and organ toxicity. In addition, heavy metals like arsenic and copper can accumulate in the meat and organs of animals, posing risks to human health.
Third, using untreated chicken manure as feed can negatively impact meat quality. It may give the meat an unpleasant odor, reduce its value, and affect the taste of processed products like sausages or ham. Moreover, estrogen-like compounds found in chicken feces could cause reproductive problems in dairy cows.
To address these risks, the safest and most effective method is to ferment the manure. Using microbial fermentation agents like Kinpo II can break down difficult-to-digest fibers into bacterial proteins, improving nutritional value. At the same time, harmful pathogens, toxins, and heavy metals are neutralized during the process.
Functional microorganisms play a key role in this transformation. They act as natural detoxifiers, breaking down harmful substances and protecting livestock from potential diseases. However, not all fermentation starters offer the same level of safety and effectiveness. It's important to choose high-quality, detoxified additives to ensure both safety and cost-effectiveness.
By properly fermenting chicken manure, we can turn a waste product into a valuable resource, reducing environmental impact while supporting sustainable farming practices.
