Click to Order Nif Organic Pellet Solid Farm Manure.

• Organic fertilizer increases the amount of organic matter in the soil and provides versatile benefits through its microorganisms.
• Organic fertilizer regulates the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the soil and increases limited plant nutrients in the soil.
• Organic fertilizer increases the soil’s water retention capacity.
• Organic fertilizer regulates the soil’s temperature, color, and water permeability.
• Organic fertilizer facilitates soil tilth and cultivation.
• In heavy soils, it loosens the compact structure formed by clay minerals, facilitating soil cultivation and aeration.
• It promotes a stronger root system and the formation of more fibrous roots.
• It improves fruit aroma and increases product quality and yield.
• The humus it contains forms complexes with clay minerals in the soil, converting unusable nutrients like N, P, K into an available form for plants.
• 1 kg of NIF Organic Fertilizer is sufficient instead of 10 kg of farm manure.
• Nif Organic products are produced with advanced technology and have undergone heat treatment. This ensures they possess Organic Farming (Ecocert) Certification and comply with European and American organic farming standards (NOP-EU).
• Our products are specially developed to achieve the best efficiency in all soil types and are completely natural.

Organic fertilizer is a material prepared from waste or by-products of living organisms (plants, animals, etc.), containing plant nutrients in organic compounds, primarily aimed at improving the physical and chemical structure of the soil to facilitate nutrient uptake.

It is a completely organic cattle manure. Pressed into pellets, it slowly decomposes in soil and water. As a slow-release plant nutrient, pellet fertilizer provides balanced nutrients to plants in soil and water over the long term. It is easy to distribute on sloped and steep terrains with a fertilizer spreader. It is completely organic and contains no hazardous substances at any stage of production that are harmful to human health. It is a non-sticky, odorless, and sterile fertilizer. Thanks to its pressed pellet form, it is easy and practical to use.

 

For years, the use of chemical fertilizers, while increasing yield, has led to soil fatigue and a decrease in vitality. For example, while 1 gram of soil should contain 27 billion microorganisms, this number has now fallen to millions and hundreds of thousands. Consequently, soils have become impoverished. It is necessary to re-enrich these soils, rejuvenate them, and replenish the depleted organic matter. Organic matter supplementation is inevitable for soils. Without organic matter supplementation, soils will begin to dry out. Organic matter supplementation can be achieved through organic fertilizer.

Benefits of Organic Fertilizer

• Organic fertilizer is organic matter in the soil that retains water and oxygen.
• Organic matter is the most important factor that absorbs nutrients and accelerates microorganism activities.
• It is the most important factor for rebuilding the natural balance lost due to erroneous practices in the ecological system.
• It is the most important input for a traceable, sustainable production system for humans and the environment.
• Organic fertilizer is an alternative to eliminate the use of synthetic chemical pesticides.
• If chemical fertilizers are used together with organic fertilizer, the use of chemical fertilizer is reduced, causing less damage to the soil.
• Products grown with organic fertilizer are very important in terms of the benefits they provide to agricultural products offered for human consumption.

Application Method of Organic Fertilizer

• For perennial plants, organic fertilizer is used depending on the tree’s age. For example, 1 kg of organic fertilizer for a 1-year-old tree, 5 kg for a 5-year-old tree, 8 kg for an 8-year-old tree, and between 8 and 10 kg for trees older than 10 years. It is applied 10-15 cm deep around the tree’s crown projection in January, February, and March, then covered.
• For annual plants, it is applied at a rate of 300-350 kg of organic fertilizer per decare. For example, for products like peppers, eggplants, cotton, corn, melons, watermelons, pumpkins, potatoes, and tomatoes, it is incorporated 20-25 cm deep during the final tillage (in January, February, or March).
• For annual plants (wheat, barley, rye) in dry farming, 150-200 kg of organic fertilizer per decare.
• For annual plants (wheat, barley, rye) in irrigated farming, 200-250 kg of organic fertilizer per decare is applied during the final tillage before planting.
• In greenhouses, it is applied at a rate of 300-350 kg of organic fertilizer per decare during preparation before seedling planting.
• For potted plants, during repotting, 50-70 grams of organic fertilizer are applied according to the pot’s volume.
• For lawns, 300-400 grams of organic fertilizer per square meter are used.

Effect of Organic Fertilizer on Soil Physical Properties

• It increases the soil’s water retention capacity.
• In soils rich in organic matter, plants require less water. This prevents unnecessary water waste during irrigation.
• Organic fertilizer darkens the soil’s color, allowing it to absorb more heat.
• It increases soil permeability, facilitating air, water, and moisture absorption.
• It prevents damage to plants by removing salt from the root zone in the soil.

Effect of Organic Fertilizer on Soil Chemical Properties

• Nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium interact effectively with humus.
• It balances the soil’s nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium needs.
• It increases the soil’s nutrient retention capacity (cation exchange capacity).
• It ensures that plant nutrients in the soil remain in a form available for plants.
• As organic matter decomposes, it converts nitrogen, which cannot be stored in the soil, into nitrogen bacteria in a balanced manner.
• It dissolves lime that water cannot dissolve, and the resulting carbon dioxide is used in photosynthesis, which is crucial for plants.
• If used with powdered sulfur, it helps reduce the pH of soils, which is the biggest problem in our soils.
• It converts iron, necessary for plant growth in the soil, into a form that plants can absorb.
• It converts nutrients in the soil from an unusable form to a beneficial one.
• Organic fertilizer increases plant growth rate by enhancing cell division in plants.

Effect of Organic Fertilizer on Soil Microbiological Activity

• It increases microbiological activity in the soil.
• It ensures that nutrient elements become available as a result of biological activity in the soil.
• It increases the microorganism population in the soil.

 

Manure is purchased from modern farms engaged in cattle breeding in various regions. The journey of the collected manure at our facility takes approximately 6 months. It undergoes resting, maturation, and fermentation processes. The rested manure is arranged in rows 2 meters high and 200 meters long on large concrete areas. The key considerations here are that the initial moisture content of the manure is 40%–65%, and air temperatures are above 30°C. It is subjected to fermentation by mixing it once every 2-3 days with a fermentation machine called a Topturn. Temperatures are frequently measured. Temperatures are expected to reach 65°C–70°C. This process continues until unwanted harmful organisms such as nematodes, pathogens, fungi, and weed seeds are eliminated. After this fermentation, it undergoes a heat treatment system. The hygienic, sterile, and healthy fertilizers are then subjected to grinding and screening. They are transferred to bunkers at our facility, and in our filling unit, organic fertilizers are packaged into 25 kg bags and offered to consumers. Our organic fertilizers are registered and licensed by the Ministry of Food, Agriculture, and Livestock, and also certified as EU, NOP, and TR by the organic fertilizer inspection body. Organic fertilizers are produced with advanced technology. The plant nutrients, organic matter, and humic+fulvic acids they contain have very important effects on soil and plants.
