When planning to produce biofertilizer, the biofertilizer plant cost is the most important factor. In general, the investment ranges from $35,000 to $660,000, depending on your equipment selection, fertilizer type, and production process. If you want to make bacteria-based biofertilizer at a lower price, YUSHUNXIN can provide you with an affordable and efficient manufacturing plan.
What is the budget for establishing a biofertilizer manufacturing plant?
The cost of building a biofertilizer plant is usually between $35,000 and $550,000. The main options are powdered biofertilizer production lines and granular biofertilizer manufacturing lines.
- A powdered biofertilizer line is the most economical choice. It requires fewer machines, such as a compost turner, biofertilizer grinder, rotary drum screener, and bagging machine.
- A granular biofertilizer line costs more, but it has clear advantages. Granules are easier to store and transport, and they often bring higher profits. To upgrade from powder to granules, you simply add a bio fertilizer granulator.
How much does the large-scale biofertilizer plant cost (15-20 t/h) ?
The production scale also affects the total bio fertilizer plant cost. If you have enough budget, a large-scale biofertilizer production line (15–20 tons per hour) will cost around $60,000–$660,000. However, the production price of each form of biofertilizer is different. For example, The 15 tons/hour powdered biofertilizer production project costs $60,000-$90,000, while the granular biological fertilizer plant cost is about $360,000-$600,000. For large-scale production, YUSHUNXIN recommends using a drum granulator. This machine has an output of 3–30 tons per hour, an anti-corrosion inner lining, and a lifting plate to prevent feed blockage. Small holes in the drum wall also allow smooth material discharge, ensuring stable operation.
what is the price of 8-15tons/hour biofertilizer plant?
If your budget is limited, a medium-sized biofertilizer plant (8–15 t/h) is a practical option. Compared with small-scale projects, this medium-size production line uses upgraded equipment to improve efficiency and stability. A powdered biofertilizer production line (8–15 t/h) usually costs $45,000–$65,000. At the same time, a granular biofertilizer plant of the same capacity costs around $190,000–$380,000. By sharing your budget and raw materials, YUSHUNXIN can design the right bio fertilizer business solutions. Welcome to consult us !
For example, YUSHUNXIN has helped the customer in Brazil successfully start the 10 t/h biofertilizer production line. It cost $370,000. We have equipped them with the crawler type compost turner, SXFLF-1000 new vertical crusher, SXZGZ-2080 biofertilizer drum granulator, bio fertilizer coating machine, two rotary drum screener, dryer, cooler, belt conveyor and double-bucket bagging machine,etc. With this customized bio fertilizer equipment plan, the customer quickly started stable production and achieved consistent daily output.
The small scale (1-5 t/h) bio fertilizer manufacturing plant cost in YUSHUNXIN
A small-scale biofertilizer production line is ideal for investors looking for lower start-up costs. The powdered biofertilizer plant costs about $35,000–$45,000, while the granular biofertilizer plant ranges from $110,000–$190,000. The difference mainly lies in equipment selection.
YUSHUNXIN can customize both powder and granular lines to fit your budget and production target.
Other Key Factors Affecting Biofertilizer Plant Cost
Land cost:
The land area directly affects the initial investment of a biofertilizer plant. A small-scale plant (1–5 T/H) may only need 500–1,000 m², while a large-scale factory requires more than 5,000 m². Choosing compact and integrated equipment, such as YUSHUNXIN’s fermentation pot and disc pelletizer, can reduce land demand by optimizing layout and minimizing auxiliary facilities. This helps you save on land rental or purchase costs.
Human cost:
Labor is another major expense. Manual feeding, bagging, and turning often require large teams. YUSHUNXIN provides automatic compost turners, belt conveyors, and bagging machines, which reduce the number of workers needed. For example, a line equipped with an automatic double-bucket packaging machine allows one operator to finish bagging efficiently, cutting labor costs significantly.
Raw material costs:
Raw material cost takes a big part of bio fertilizer manufacturing plant cost. You can buy animal manure from nearby farms at a low price. Long-term cooperation with suppliers helps avoid seasonal price changes. Besides manure and crop waste, you may need NPK powder, humic acid, or trace elements. YUSHUNXIN batching and mixing equipment ensures accurate dosing, reduces waste, and saves raw material expenses.
