Driven by favorable policies and market demand, the organic fertilizer industry is rapidly heating up. However, under the favorable situation, there are also some doubts: organic fertilizers seem to be selling more and more expensive in recent years, will it increase the burden on farmers? Increasing the application of commodity organic fertilizers is for the sustainable development of agriculture in China and to ensure the production of green agricultural products for the people. If organic fertilizers are really profitable, it obviously goes against the original intention of the development of this industry and will also destroy this emerging industry.

Increase agricultural planting costs

Is organic fertilizer really expensive? To answer this question, organic fertilizer granulator manufacturers believe that at least three levels of thinking are needed.

One aspect is the concept of farmers. For a long time in the past, organic fertilizers were piled up and produced by farmers themselves, with low costs. So farmers believe that organic fertilizer is a cheap and economical fertilizer.

The two aspects are the characteristics of the use of organic fertilizers. Chemical fertilizers have almost completely replaced organic fertilizers and have become the primary source of nutrients for farmland. Compared with chemical fertilizers, organic fertilizers require a larger amount of labor and labor. If organic fertilizer is used instead, both the total cost of fertilizer input and the additional labor required for fertilization will exceed that of chemical fertilizer.

The three levels are the factors of the organic fertilizer industry itself. As an industry, commodity organic fertilizers are not comparable in cost to traditional organic fertilizers and farmyard fertilizers. Firstly, in the production process, the commodity organic fertilizer needs to go through a series of industrial processes such as composting, turning, drying, crushing, and packaging in the organic fertilizer production line (including multifunctional organic fertilizer granulator machinery, multifunctional organic fertilizer turning machine, organic fertilizer drying equipment, organic fertilizer mixer, and roller squeezing organic fertilizer granulator, etc.); Secondly, in the transportation process, the production of organic fertilizers for goods requires the collection of raw materials from various places, and after processing, they have to enter the market for sale, which increases the cost of transportation; In the marketing process, organic fertilizers from the factory to the hands of farmers need to go through multiple levels such as distributors and retailers, resulting in high sales costs.
