Organic Fertilizer
OFEC provides comprehensive equipment and process solutions for organic fertilizer manufacturers, covering the entire workflow from composting and turning to finished product packaging. With capacities ranging from 0.5 to 30 tons per hour, our solutions are scalable to suit everything from small pilot plants to large-scale industrial production.
Industry Overview
Organic fertilizer is produced from animal and plant residues such as livestock manure, crop straw, and food waste through composting and maturation. It supplies crops with comprehensive nutrition including nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and organic matter, while also improving soil physical structure, chemical properties, and microbial environment – making it a foundational input for soil health and sustainable agricultural development.
Organic fertilizer encompasses a wide variety of types, including farmyard manure, green manure, compost, humic fertilizer, bio-organic fertilizer, and more.
Typical Process Flow
Process Stage Breakdown:
Stage | Core Task | Key Equipment |
Raw Material Collection | Collection and storage of organic waste (livestock manure, straw, food waste, etc.) | Conveying systems, storage bins |
Pre-treatment | Moisture and C/N ratio adjustment, impurity removal | |
Composting & Maturation | Aerobic fermentation to eliminate pathogens and weed seeds | |
Crushing composted material to optimal particle size, blending according to formulation | ||
Forming powder materials into uniform pellets | ||
Reducing pellet moisture content to safe storage levels | ||
Separating finished pellets from returns | Trommel screener | |
Anti-caking or functional coating treatment (optional) | ||
Packaging & Storage | Automatic weighing, bagging, and palletizing | Automatic packaging machine, palletizing system |
Conveying systems, storage bins

OFEC offers two mainstream granulation lines with complete equipment and process solutions for organic fertilizer production, covering all core processes from raw material handling to finished product packaging. For smaller-scale investors, we also provide the E1 Fertilizer Production Station – a compact, combined granulation line.
Drum Granulation Line
Characterized by high single-unit capacity and closed-loop design, suitable for large-scale, high-output organic fertilizer production. Produces round, uniform granules with high strength. Capacity range: 3–30 TPH.
Disc Granulation Line
Extrusion Granulation Line
Characterized by dry granulation with no or low-temperature drying, low energy consumption, and high pellet density. Produces dense, columnar or flat-spherical granules with high strength. Capacity range: 1–5 TPH.
E1 Fertilizer Production Station
OFEC provides comprehensive equipment and process solutions for organic fertilizer production, covering all core processes from raw material handling to finished product packaging.
Composting is the first critical stage in organic fertilizer production, directly determining the quality of subsequent raw materials. OFEC offers three types of compost turning equipment to suit different fermentation scenarios:
Hydraulic Compost Turner
Wheel‑Type Compost Turner
Groove‑Type Compost Turner
Through regular turning, the compost pile receives sufficient oxygen, maintaining fermentation temperatures of 55–70°C – effectively eliminating pathogens, parasite eggs, and weed seeds while converting organic waste into stable, harmless humus fertilizer.
2. Crushing & Mixing System
Composted materials often contain lumps and uneven particle sizes. OFEC provides:
Semi-wet Material Crusher
Twin-Shaft Mixer
Disc Mixer
OFEC offers three mainstream granulation equipment types to suit different scales and production requirements:
Drum Granulator
Roller Granulator
Characterized by dry granulation with no or low-temperature drying, low energy consumption, Capacity range: 1–5 TPH.
Rotary Dryer
Rotary Cooler
Trommel Screener
Coating Machine
Automatic Packaging Machine
