n°1397


A little imagination, pig breeders! There are many economic ways to fatten your charming cattle without empester the air or to pollute the ground water.
Thus, the Cobiotex company proposes to raise the pigs on a litter of permanent straw sprinkled by a miraculous microbial cocktail.

Finished odor! Finished the stuffed nitrate liquid manure!
At the end the eight weeks necessary to transform a piglet of 8 kilos into pig of 100 kiIos, the straw changed, by accelerated composting, in a dense manure which trapped nitrogen in nonwashable organic form by the rain This miracle holds, obviously, with the composition of the Pasteurian mixture.
This one contains nine stocks carefully selected.
With the aerobic and anaerobic time, the bacteria carefully degrade the straw without release neither of ammonia odors nor.

This balanced association of bacteria also makes it possible to compose will handle them fecal pig by avoiding the putrefaction and by preserving nitrogen in proteinic form.
Nothing to waste, according to Andre Schultz, director of Cobiotex, these bacteria emits inhibiting substances with respect to the pathogenic bacteria At the David, stockbreeders in Expensive, who use this process on a large scale, antibiotics are used more only very seldom.
Much richer than an ordinary manure, the compost of mulched makes make the stockbreeder of waitresses economies as regards manure.

For once, the fight against pollution does not put the stockbreeder on the straw!
