Penergetic k – Compost and In-barn

For Compost Optimization and In-barn Use

  • For Dry Manure and Compost: stimulates an accelerated aerobic decomposition process, reduces odor and other nuisances and produces more nutrient rich humus
  • On Livestock Bedding, in Poultry Barns and Stables: acts as a conditioner to improve barn conditions by reducing ammonia and insects, supporting disease suppression and decomposition of poultry/livestock fecal matter and litter/bedding

* Penergetic k ULTRA for poultry barns and Penergetic k for compost are OMRI-listed, therefore suitable for organic, transitional and conventional methods of agriculture.

BENEFITS

Composting

  • Activates accelerated composting by an aerobic process
  • Suitable for all manner of compostable materials (e.g. solid manure, plant matter, municipal waste stream)
  • Reduces insect pest problems and odors associated with composting
  • Limits loss of nutrients (e.g. nitrogen) during composting process
  • Contributes to elimination of weed seeds and pathogenic organisms
  • Produces more homogeneously consistent nutrient rich humus
  • Assists in regulating temperature during composting
  • Helps propagate healthy soil fungi and reduces detrimental fungi
  • Proven effective at decomposing dead animals
  • By promoting a more complete breakdown of manure, helps prevent nutrient overload on fields
  • Proven and cost effective approach to composting

Barns and Stables

  • Controls odor in poultry barns and livestock housing
  • Reduces flies and other insects in poultry barns and livestock stalls
  • Converts problematic ammonia in livestock manure/urine to beneficial ammonium
  • Supports conversion of hydrogen sulfide (from animal wastes) to plant available sulfur
  • Supports control of pathogens
  • Control dust and reduces wetness in bedding
  • In poultry barns, helps with mitigation of darkling beetles
  • Overcomes problems associated with lime (used in back of stalls) as not dusty and won’t fill grooves in flooring
  • Initiates compost activation process in soiled poultry litter / livestock bedding

APPLICATION

In Compost and Solid Manure

Application Rate: 1 to 2 oz. per cu. yd. of manure* or compost

Note: the higher the rate of application the faster and more complete the composting
process is.

* (On average) 1.0 ton of cow manure = 1 cu. yd.

Dry:

Penergetic k (for compost) can be applied separately. Alternatively, can be premix with rock meal, sawdust or similar substances as a bulking agent. Due to the small quantities applied, this latter option is one means of permitting a more uniform and accurate application, although experience has shown that this is not critical in achieving satisfactory composting results.

Wet:

Mix penergetic k for compost into water and leave for a while. Re-stir and apply evenly with spray applicator (large quantity) or watering can (small quantity).

Ideally, apply penergetic k evenly onto the compost layers. In the case of a static (stationary) pile that is not to be turned, poke several holes into the pile or windrow and pour Penergetic k into the pile via these holes.

Penergetic k can also be applied (dry or wet) while turning the compost piles or windrows.

Although Penergetic k will work well even if the pile is not turned, for maximum effectiveness follow good composting practices, including: monitoring temperature; regularly turning the pile or windrows; and, covering with breathable fleece to regulate moisture flow (in and out) and prevent weed seeds from infesting the compost pile.

In Barns and Stables

In poultry barns:

Spray penergetic k ULTRA (for poultry barns) at rate of:

10 oz. per 1,000 sq. ft. on floor (once every 6 – 12 months) and

13 oz. per 1,000 sq. ft. on litter/bedding per cycle (prior to birds being moved into barn).

Alternatively, penergetic k can be applied dry and/or mixed with litter prior to litter being spread in the barn.

In cases where darkling beetles control is a consideration be sure to apply in vicinity of drinkers and feed stations and along building perimeter.

In dairy barns (and livestock pack barns)

Use penergetic k for compost (extra fine)

  • In back of stalls: 1 lb. per 100 stalls/weekly (or 5 grams per stall/week)
  • In calf pens/hutches and bedding pack:
    i) Initial application (on floor) – 12.0 to 22.0 oz. / 1,000 sq. ft.
    ii) Subsequent application (on bedding) 4.0 to 6.0 oz. / 100 LSUs  / weekly

** To increase ease of application in dairy operations, penergetic k can be mixed with any absorbant, non-slip material to bulk it up [Example: at a rate of 1:20 [1.0 lb. of penergetic k to 20 lbs. of bulking agent]

The above application schedules are suggestive.  For specific details as to the appropriate application rate in your operations contact a Penergetic distributor or dealer.

With Penergetic k use for composting and/or in barn use – “more is better” and produces more results.

Municipal and Commercial-scale Composting Operations

Penergetic k is a great addition to a commercial or municipal composting operations, by:

  • Reducing on-site composting time
  • Accelerating the throughput of compostable material through the yard (thereby reducing total land area required for the composting area and/or permitting greater volume of material to be handled/composted per unit of space)
  • Increasing nutrient quality, texture and grade of resultant compost material
  • Plus, realizing all the other (general) benefits associated with composting with Penergetic k
