What is the difference between organic fertilizer and bio-organic fertilizer?
Release time:2025-10-13 Views:14 Sources:Tai an Hongxin Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd

Organic fertilizer and bio-organic fertilizer are in a hierarchical relationship, where the former includes the latter.

Organic fertilizer is typically produced through microbial fermentation under controlled conditions, including a specific carbon-to-nitrogen ratio, moisture, and ventilation. The composting process involves transforming unstable organic matter into stable humus.

Biological organic fertilizer is produced by adding microbial strains to organic fertilizer, with an effective viable count (CFU) of ≥ 0.20 billion/g.

Both organic fertilizers and bio-organic fertilizers mostly contain microbial colonies, which are beneficial to the soil.

Imagine on the Moon, where lunar rocks weather into rock powder (micro-particles). Without the presence of microorganisms, there would be no soil. Soil is created by microorganisms.

Organic fertilizer

(NY-525-2021) - Industry Standard (Implemented on June 1, 2021)

Organic fertilizer primarily originates from plants and/or animals, consisting of carbon-containing organic materials that undergo fermentation and decomposition. Its functions include improving soil fertility, supplying plant nutrients, and enhancing crop quality. It is suitable for organic fertilizers produced from livestock manure, plant and animal residues, and materials derived from plant and animal products, after undergoing fermentation and decomposition.

Bio-organic fertilizer

(NY-884-2012) - Industry Standard

It refers to a type of fertilizer that combines specific functional microorganisms with organically derived fertilizers, primarily sourced from animal and plant residues (such as livestock manure, crop straw, etc.), which have undergone harmless treatment and decomposition. This fertilizer possesses both microbial and organic fertilizer effects.
