SoilWorx feather meal pellets are made from hydrolysed poultry feathers sourced from our parent company College Proteins in Ireland. Feather meal is a naturally slow-release organic fertiliser and ideal to use as a starter nitrogen dose for sustained nutrition over the growing season.
Frequently Asked Questions
As with most organic amendments the use on crops is widely seen as positive to growth by providing organic matter back to the soil, closing the nutrient loop, improving the soil texture and water holding capacity whilst providing better biodiversity in the soil.
Poultry manure provides higher nutrient contents compared to other manures and provides a slow release of the nutrients.
When applied at the appropriate rate and onto well-structured soils poultry manure is suitable across most crops.
Our pellets are suitable to be spread via most conventional spreading equipment. Recent trials also show the ability to use in drill application.
Organic fertiliser contains levels of organic matter and trace nutrients which synthetic fertilisers do not. This is why SoilWorx promotes both fully organic and hybrid crop nutrition programmes to provide the benefits a fully synthetic fertiliser cannot.
SoilWorx will guarantee our products for 1 year if stored in a dry and sheltered location. If the bag is unopened, it is possible for the pellets to last a lot longer.
