Chicken Litter: One of THE most cost effective fertilisers
Chicken Litter, a mix of chicken manure and sawdust high in natural Nitrogen, Phosphorous and Potassium, is a good all year round fertiliser for pasture, maize crops, horticulture and small blocks.
It is doubly effective as it provides both a quick acting and controlled release of Nitrogen and Phosphorous elements, controlled by natural soil organisms and soil temperature.

Our fleet of modern, custom made spreading vehicles ensures the product is accurately and evenly applied in accordance to the customer’s requirements and environmental considerations.
