Exploring Mediterranean Agricultural Characteristics and Collaborating on the Development of Specialized Organic Fertilizer Equipment
In March 2025, a delegation of Greek clients visited our company. Greece boasts unique Mediterranean agricultural characteristics, primarily focusing on the cultivation of cash crops such as olives and grapes. The clients hoped to collaborate with our company to develop specialized organic fertilizer equipment suitable for Mediterranean cash crops, aiming to improve crop quality and yield.
The client delegation first visited our organic fertilizer finished product display area, learning about the application effects of different types of organic fertilizers on various crops. In the production workshop, the clients focused on inspecting the coating machine and horizontal mixer. Our technical staff explained how the coating machine forms a special coating on the fertilizer surface to control the release rate of nutrients, meeting the nutrient needs of crops such as olives and grapes at different growth stages. The horizontal mixer can precisely mix various raw materials to produce specialized organic fertilizers rich in specific trace elements. This targeted design perfectly matched the needs of the Greek clients and won their approval.
During the subsequent discussions, both parties engaged in in-depth discussions on formula development, equipment customization, and market promotion of specialized organic fertilizers. Our company proposed an integrated “equipment + formula” cooperation plan, not only customizing specialized equipment for the clients but also providing organic fertilizer formula development support to help them produce high-end organic fertilizers that meet the needs of Mediterranean cash crops. The Greek clients expressed their appreciation for this innovative cooperation model, believing that it would fully leverage the advantages of both parties and achieve mutual benefit and win-win results. During this visit, both parties initially determined the direction of cooperation and planned to establish a special R&D team to jointly promote the research and development and production of specialized organic fertilizer equipment, contributing to the development of Greece’s unique Mediterranean agricultural industry.
To produce the high-quality organic base required for specialty fertilizers, the collaboration will focus on optimizing the initial fermentation composting technology for organic fertilizer. Considering the scale and potential raw materials (like olive pomace and grape marc), the system design could utilize a large wheel compost turner for efficient open-air windrow management or adopt a more controlled trough-type aerobic fermentation composting technology using a chain compost turner. These methods represent advanced fermentation composting turning technology to ensure rapid, hygienic decomposition. Following complete curing, the compost would be processed through a disc granulation production line to create uniform, high-grade granules suitable for coating. This entire suite, from turning equipment to the granulation line, forms the core of the equipments required for biofertilizer production, enabling the creation of tailored, value-added fertilizers for Mediterranean orchards and vineyards.
