Investigation into physico-chemical properties of compost extract as affected by processing parameters

In a view to convert the abundant chicken manure generated which constitute environmental hazard into a more useful form, investigation was carried out on efficient extraction of nutrients from composted chicken manure into compost extract which will serve as an alternative to inorganic fertilizer....

Chicken manure was co-composted with sawdust using a passively aerated composting method. The resultant compost was subjected to 3×3×3 processing parameters: compost rate (10, 15 and 20 t/ha), steeping time (24, 48 and 72 h) and water temperature (25, 35 and 45 °C).
