process flow of bio organic fertilizer production line in Vietnam
(1) Organic fertilizer production process flow
Description of organic fertilizer process flow:
- Mixing and stirring: Put the purchased raw materials of agricultural waste, pond mud, furfural waste residue, and livestock manure into the stirring tank, spray biological deodorant at the same time, stir evenly, and the humidity is about 45%.
- Fermentation: Enter the composting fermentation stage, the fermentation is carried out in a closed workshop, and multiple exhaust fans are installed in the workshop to continuously collect the odor in the workshop, so that the gas in the workshop will not be enriched and produce biogas.
The fermentation time is 20 days. When the humidity is 65%, an excavator is used to push the fermentation. The fermentation temperature is 65-70℃, which kills 100% of parasite eggs and 90% of Escherichia coli and Galliformis (pullorum). The temperature drops to 40℃, ventilation and heat dissipation, heat dissipation, and natural drying before entering the next process. - Crushing: Use a fertilizer crusher to crush the fermented fertilizer into powder.
- Adding microbial agents: The crushed material will have a small amount of odor, and the crushed fertilizer is sprayed with biological agents for deodorization.
- Inspection and sale of finished products: After adding biological agents, the finished products are regularly sent to a third-party agency for inspection of the moisture content and related pollutants in the finished products. If the product meets the organic fertilizer standard, it will pass the quality inspection and can be shipped out for sale. If the quality inspection fails, it will be returned to the mixing tank for secondary mixing and fermentation, and then restart production.

Prospects of building a bio organic fertilizer production line in Vietnam
As a major agricultural country in Southeast Asia, Vietnam has seen rapid development of organic agriculture and sustainable planting in recent years. The market demand for organic fertilizers is strong, and the government policy support is strong. Investing in a bio organic fertilizer production line in Vietnam has good business prospects. The following is a detailed analysis:
Analysis of the market prospects of organic fertilizers in Vietnam
1. Strong market demand
A major agricultural country: Vietnam’s agriculture accounts for about 15% of GDP, and the planting area of rice, coffee, and fruits (such as durian and dragon fruit) is large, and the demand for organic fertilizers is high.
Growth of organic agriculture: The Vietnamese government promotes “green agriculture”, and the organic planting area increases by 10%~15% each year. The goal in 2025 is to use organic fertilizers on 3%~5% of cultivated land.
High dependence on imports: Currently, about 40% of Vietnam’s organic fertilizers rely on imports (mainly from China and Thailand), and local production can replace imports to reduce costs.
2. Strong policy support
Government subsidies: The Vietnamese Ministry of Agriculture encourages the production of organic fertilizers, and some provinces provide tax exemptions, low-interest loans and other support policies.
Environmental regulations: limit the abuse of fertilizers and promote the resource utilization of livestock and poultry manure (for example, the comprehensive utilization rate of livestock and poultry manure must reach 90% by 2025).
3. Adequate supply of raw materials and low cost
Agricultural waste: rice husks, bagasse, coffee grounds, etc. are abundant and cheap.
Livestock manure: Vietnam has a developed breeding industry (large pig, chicken, and cattle breeding), and the demand for manure treatment is high, which can be purchased at a low price or even free of charge.
4. Competitive landscape and opportunities
Local enterprises are small in scale: Vietnam’s organic fertilizer factories are mainly small and medium-sized, with backward technology and unstable product quality.
Advantages of foreign brands: Chinese and Thai companies have entered, but there are still vacancies in the high-end market, and there is a great demand for high-quality granular organic fertilizers and biological organic fertilizers.
