Fermentation Bedding: Heat Preservation, Manure Composting, and Healthy Microclimate in Winter
Maintaining Warmth and Microclimate in Livestock Housing Facilities
As winter cold sets in, the question of maintaining warmth in livestock and poultry housing facilities becomes increasingly relevant.
During housing, large amounts of manure and droppings accumulate on the floor. Excessive humidity and high concentrations of unpleasant odors build up in the facilities.
This in turn can affect the productivity and overall condition of livestock and poultry.
To reduce these negative effects, we recommend using Sanvit-K-Forte for bedding treatment.
The product contains live spore-forming microorganisms of the genus Bacillus, whose properties include destroying harmful microflora and producing enzymes and biologically active substances that accelerate the decomposition of organic waste.
A distinctive feature of the product is that its enzymes are not released immediately, which extends the effectiveness and activity of the bacteria. It significantly reduces ammonia levels in the air.
Benefits of application: elimination of unpleasant odors; composting of droppings and manure; reduction of animal and poultry disease rates; serving as an additional heat source; reduction of pathogenic microorganism populations.
Creating comfortable conditions and a favorable microclimate in livestock housing facilities promotes improved sanitary, hygienic, and environmental parameters.
This positively affects the biological indicators of animals, such as live weight gain, herd survival, productivity, appearance, and product quality.
It is also worth noting that the product composts droppings and manure, yielding a ready-to-use fertilizer.
The bedding processed by bacteria turns into high-quality compost. It can be applied to soil and directly under plants.
Thanks to compost, over several seasons the soil gradually becomes loose, dark brownish-black in color, and enriched with an environmentally clean fertilizer. The soil retains moisture well and does not form a crust after rains.
