Organic fertilizer spreader: description, function

An important agrotechnical measure is soil fertilization with organic substances in the fields, pasture meadows, in the shelterbelts. In a household, a small area can be handled manually. But for spreading fertilizers on a large scale, an organic fertilizer spreader is used. On the principle of work, machine stamps read in the article.

Organic fertilizers of solid consistency

To this category of nutrients for the soil is humus, compost, peat, manure, lake silt, green mass. Such fertilizers have all the properties that are inherent in solid bodies. They belong to the main type of fertilizer and are very popular. They prepare them for future use. As a result of prolonged storage, they are caked. Before entering the soil, they are crushed, sieved, and then mixed again. The structure of the fertilizer should be uniform, finely cloddy.

There is such a thing as agrotechnical terms of agricultural work. So, according to the given time (for each climatic zone it has its own) organic fertilizers are introduced. For this, a solid organic fertilizer spreader is used. This is a universal trailer. Its carrying capacity is from four to ten tons.

How are solid fertilizers applied?

The process is carried out using three technologies:

• Straight-flow - when one machine fertilizer and transported, and are imported.
• Transshipment - when solid fertilizers are piled into the heaps right on the field. And with the onset of the season they are scattered.
• Two-phase - manure is first stacked on heaps, located in a certain order according to the specified norms of fertilizer application, and then spread across the field.

Fertilizer spreader ROU-6

This machine carries and spreads peat, humus, compost. Spreader of organic fertilizers ROU-6 is a trailer with two axles. On its frame is installed a body, the sides of which are set to increase the height.

The bottom of the body is equipped with a feeding conveyor, which consists of four cargo chains, welded in pairs, each of which has a tensioning device. Metal scrapers are attached to the chains with the same spacing between them. ROU-6 - spreader of organic fertilizers for minitractor, From which he works.

What are the ways to apply fertilizers?

From the nutrient medium of the soil depends the yield of garden and garden crops, the decorativeness of flowering plants. Fertilizers are introduced into the soil in various ways:

• The main thing is when the fertilizing is spread over the surface of the earth, and then they are embedded in it. If the site is small, you can do without attracting technology. And if it is used for large-scale cultivation of agricultural crops on it, an organic fertilizer spreader is used. It is designed for manure, compost and peat.

• Pre-sowing method, which is used before planting forest crops. Young plants, having received additional food, will quickly get accustomed, get stronger and go to growth.
• Top dressing of plants is well digestible fertilizers. In this way, not only organic but also mineral fertilizers are introduced in the dry and liquid state.

Organic fertilizers of liquid consistency

These include fertilizers dissolved in liquid. Their main feature is fluidity and the ability to quickly absorb into the soil. They are introduced using different methods: they spread over the surface of a piece of land or are embedded in the soil. The application of organic fertilizer spreader or sprinkler installation.

How are liquid fertilizers applied?

This is done with the help of technology, which includes fertilizer spreader. When the pump is turned on, the liquid begins to flow into the dispenser. From the aperture of the gate it leaves with great force, strikes against the shield and is distributed, as from a spray gun, over the field.

The dose of fertilizers introduced is regulated by special valves, which have holes of different diameters: from sixty to one hundred and ten millimeters. Depending on the speed of the unit, a hole of the required diameter is selected. To disperse 40-60 tons of liquid fertilizers per hectare of the field, valves are not used.

Fertilizer spreader МЖТ-Ф-11

It is used when it is necessary to spill fertilizer on the surface of the site. The spreader has a simple design: a tank, a centrifugal force pump, a vacuum installation, a hose, a pipeline, a device for switching and pouring liquids, safety valves.

The spreader of liquid organic fertilizers has a tank with two hatches, the lids of which are hermetically sealed. The filling level of the tank is determined by the float level gauge. Liquid fertilizer from the tank is pumped by a centrifugal pump into the pipeline, from where it is distributed by the filling device over the field.

The spreader of organic fertilizers MZhT-F-11 can be loaded independently with liquid fertilizers stored in the manure storage. For this purpose, the shutter closes the filling device. The bar, equipped with a sleeve, sinks into the manure storage. Only after this, the vacuum unit is switched on. Slurry enters the cistern through the sleeve. When it is full, the valve rises to the stop, closes the hole, and the supply of fertilizer to the tank stops. At the end of work, the vacuum unit is turned off.

Fertilizer during transport to the field is once again well mixed, so that the liquid does not separate, and no precipitate forms. This is achieved by circulating the liquid mass in a circle: from the pump to the tank and back.

The unit АВВ-Ф-2,8

With its help organic fertilizers are introduced into the soil. The structure includes an organic spreader MZhT-F-11. It has two brackets. With their help a special device is hung, the task of which is to apply fertilizer to the soil. The dispenser in the unit is replaced by a distributor. The incoming distributor flows to the feed pipes. The liquid fertilizer enters the soil evenly.

Why do they apply fertilizers to the soil?

This is necessary to increase the amount of humus in the soil. Humus has a beneficial effect on the soil for a long time, since the substances in the organics used for dressing are mineralized slowly.

Organic fertilizers should be applied in a complex manner to maintain the balance of nutrients. The best are chicken manure, cow dung, peat, sawdust. Do not forget about the mineral supplements. Organic nutrients increase soil fertility and improve its structure.
