RICHI MACHINERY

overview

In order to further carry out Vietnam’s zero-growth action on fertilizer use, accelerate the promotion of green agricultural development, and actively respond to the call of Vietnam’s agricultural department, the project client, an agricultural company, invested 320,000 US dollars and purchased production equipment to implement an annual production of 30,000 tons of biological organic fertilizer construction project.

It is worth mentioning that the client of this project owns multiple farms, and the organic fertilizer production line project will be built in an idle pig farm. The original pig farm has 1 production workshop, 1 office and toilet septic tank. The labor quota of this project is 10 people. The project implements a one-shift system, working 8 hours a day and 250 days a year.

Process design of organic fertilizer production plant in Vietnam

The organic fertilizer production plant in Vietnam project purchases fermented raw materials, which are processed by crushing, mixing, sieving and other processes before packaging and shipment. The details are as follows:

1. Proportion: The fully fermented raw materials are mixed according to the product formula.
2. Crushing: The prepared raw materials are mixed together and crushed by a crusher. The crusher is fully sealed with a cover. If the raw materials are too dry and cause dust, septic tank sewage can be added to reduce dust.
3. Mixing: The crushed raw materials are mixed evenly by a disc mixer.
4. Screening: The stirred raw materials are sifted, and the large particles are re-screened and crushed.
5. Weighing and packaging: The processed finished products are weighed and packaged according to different specifications.

Water supply and drainage

(1) Water supply

Domestic water is supplied by the local tap water network, and the annual domestic water consumption is about 300t.

(2) Drainage

This organic fertilizer production plant in Vietnam project does not discharge sewage. The project wastewater comes from domestic sewage, with a total production of 1.98t/d, or 475.2t/a. The factory is equipped with a septic tank, and the domestic sewage is collected and treated in the septic tank and used as agricultural fertilizer.

(3) Power supply

The power supply of this project is provided by the local power supply system, which can meet the power requirements.

Why start organic fertilizer production plant in Vietnam?

The construction of an organic fertilizer production plant in Vietnam has significant advantages and potential, mainly due to the rapid development of Vietnam’s agriculture, the rise of organic agriculture, the promotion of environmental protection policies, the demand for soil improvement and abundant raw material resources. The following is a detailed description of this decision:

1. The rapid development of Vietnam’s agriculture

• The position of agriculture in the economy: Vietnam is an agricultural country, with agriculture accounting for a large proportion of GDP. The main crops include rice, coffee, rubber, tea, fruits and vegetables.
• Agricultural exports: Vietnam is one of the world’s major exporters of agricultural products, especially rice, coffee and aquatic products, which are among the top in the world.
• Demand for agricultural modernization: With the expansion of agricultural scale, Vietnamese farmers’ demand for efficient and environmentally friendly agricultural inputs (such as organic fertilizers) has gradually increased.

2. The rise of organic agriculture

• Growth of organic agriculture: Vietnam’s organic agriculture has developed rapidly in recent years, and the export and domestic consumption demand of organic food have been growing. The Vietnamese government plans to expand the area of organic agriculture to 2-3% of the total agricultural area by 2030.
• International market opportunities: Vietnamese organic agricultural products are exported to high-end markets such as Europe, the United States, and Japan, which have a high demand for organic fertilizers.
• Consumer preferences: Domestic consumers in Vietnam have increased their attention to healthy and safe food, which has promoted the development of organic agriculture and, in turn, the demand for organic fertilizers.

3. Promotion of environmental protection policies

• Government support: The Vietnamese government encourages agricultural modernization and sustainable development, and may provide certain policy support for organic fertilizer production.
• Environmental regulations: The Vietnamese government’s emphasis on environmental protection has gradually increased, and organic fertilizer production is in line with the direction of environmental protection policies.
• Emission reduction targets: Vietnam has pledged to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and organic fertilizer production can reduce greenhouse gases such as methane produced during the decomposition of organic waste.

4. Demand for soil improvement

• Soil degradation problem: The soil in some agricultural areas of Vietnam has degraded due to long-term monocropping and excessive use of chemical fertilizers. Organic fertilizers can improve soil structure and increase soil fertility.
• Increase crop yields: Organic fertilizers can provide comprehensive nutrients, improve soil health, and thus increase crop yields and quality.
• Sustainable agriculture: The use of organic fertilizers is in line with the development trend of sustainable agriculture and helps reduce dependence on chemical fertilizers.

5. Abundant raw material resources

• Agricultural waste: Vietnam’s large-scale agriculture produces a large amount of agricultural waste (such as livestock and poultry manure, crop residues), which can be used as raw materials for organic fertilizers.
• Industrial by-products: By-products from industries such as food processing and sugar making (such as sugarcane bagasse and coffee grounds) can also be used in organic fertilizer production.
• Low-cost raw materials: These raw materials have low costs, which can reduce production costs and increase profit margins.

6. Technology and production feasibility

• Mature technology: Organic fertilizer production technology is already very mature, including fermentation, composting, granulation and other processes, which can efficiently convert agricultural waste into high-quality organic fertilizers.
• Localized production advantages: Building production lines in Vietnam can reduce transportation costs and better meet local agricultural needs.
• By-product utilization: By-products generated during the production process (such as biogas) can be further utilized to improve economic benefits.

7. Economic Benefits

• Large market demand: With the development of organic and sustainable agriculture, the market demand for organic fertilizers will continue to grow.
• High profit margin: Agricultural waste as raw materials has a low cost, while organic fertilizers are sold at a high price, especially in areas where organic agriculture is developed, where the profit margin is large.
• Export potential: Vietnam’s organic fertilizers can not only meet local demand, but can also be exported to other Southeast Asian countries.

There is a very good prospect for carrying out organic fertilizer production project in Vietnam projects, especially driven by agricultural modernization, organic agriculture and environmental protection policies, the market demand will continue to grow.

By taking advantage of Vietnam’s rich agricultural resources, policy support and technological advantages, the organic fertilizer processing business is expected to become an investment project with both economic and environmental benefits. However, investors need to fully consider challenges such as market competition, initial investment and farmer acceptance, and formulate a reasonable business plan to ensure the successful operation of the project.
