Organic Fertilizer and Manure NPK Analysis

  Animal manures are important sources of organic matter and plant nutrients. They can improve soil structure, microbial activity, water-holding capacity, and nutrient availability when properly processed and applied. Different Animal Manures The approximate NPK ranges below are provided for general agricultural reference. Actual nutrient content can vary significantly depending on animal diet, age, manure moisture, bedding material, storage conditions, collection method, and degree of decomposition. 1. Chicken Manure 🔸 Nitrogen (N): Approximately 1.1%–1.4% 🔸 Phosphorus (P): Approximately 0.8%–1.1% 🔸 Potassium (K): Approximately 0.5%–0.8% Chicken manure is relatively nutrient-rich and can provide significant nitrogen and phosphorus. It should preferably be well composted or properly processed before field application . 2. Goat Manure 🔸 Nitrogen (N): Approximately 0.7%–1.1% 🔸 Phosphorus (P): Approximately 0.3%–0.5% 🔸 Potassium (K): Approximately 0.5%–0.8% Go...
