Turning waste to value. How I make organic fertiliser from rice husks which are considered waste!

By the way, what venture have you tried, having been convinced that you will thrive and it ends up being one epic fail of a business, only for you to use that as a lesson and your trajectory changes for better? Meet Samuel, an agripreneur, who was convinced that there was something one can do with rice husks which account for 20% of loss from milling rice. After one super fails by trying to make briquettes from the husks, he says they couldn't even make a cuppa tea!!! He has however carved out his niche and is now making super amazing organic fertilizer. So, for that guaranteed quality produce, as you subscribe, place your orders with safi organics via:0725 778829

Have you tried composting rice hulls instead of pyrolysis? Takes quite a bit of nitrogen (manure), but it’s a fantastic soil amendment with a ton of humic/fulvic acids and bioactivity (actinomycetes love rice hulls)

I introduced large scale organic waste conversion to my colleagues in 1988. It made me popular in 30 nations for a dozen years, but still has not been realized at scale. Called " Livingstone's Living Earth Topsoil Production Centers."

Thank you Tims! The farmers make this possible!! We hope to cross borders to bring other stories too.

Great stuff from Safi Organics. Keep up the good job!

Did you think about turning part of the rice husks into bokashi - composting starter ? That would ideally complement the current product !

[@ofoeduernestchukwuemeka1895]

You have done marvellously well in researching further on how to produce organic fertiliser from rice husks, may God bless you for this great exploits. I will like to learn more practically on how to mix rice hull biochar for different needs in the farm & beyond. Please what are the possible means to learn that?

[@yawfrimpong6619]

Please sir, I really know that rice husk can be used as an organic fertiliser , please what other ingredients do you add to the grinded rice husk

[@akakulubelwamubita2302]

I have heaps of rice husks. I don't know what to do with the husks

[@asparagushub]

Making biochar in presence of oxygen? Isn't that not charcoal? Ama that burning is previously how farmers were doing it?

Besttttttttttttod dost from odisa india

[@miriamnyawira2586]

I have my land for planting maize and spinach. Need safi agronomist contacts for soil test.

[@HelivesHiswill]

Great Innovation. Find other ways to avoid the burning if possible for same or better result

[@Cynical1800]

Nonsense, the burning is the whole point. That’s what makes it alkaline.
