Application Type 1
For Controlled Decomposition of Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB) of Oil Palm, Straw and similar hard to decompose Biomass:
1. Crush biomass (empty oil fruit bunches / straw) into as small pieces as possible. The product efficacy is better with smaller pieces of biomass.
2. Mix AgriLife Silrich® P1 in sufficient water to form a slurry.
3. Spread the crushed biomass as a windrow and sprinkle the AgriLife Silrich® P1 slurry over it. Place another layer over the slurry application and sprinkle again.
4. Keep adding the layers such that it is not more than 1 feet in height.
5. Maintain a moisture percentage of 25-35 % by sprinkling water once in 4-5 days or depending on the temperature in the region
6. Allow the biomass to decompose with AgriLife Silrich® P1
7. It takes about 30-45 days for the treated biomass to get converted into organic fertilizer.
Application Type 2
In-situ decomposition of biomass in field:
1. The crop residue after harvest is left on the field.
2. Dilute 1 Kg of AgriLife Silrich® P1 in sufficient water and spray on crop residue.
3. Allow the biomass to decompose with AgriLife Silrich® P1.
4. It takes about 30-45 days for the treated biomass to get converted into organic fertilizer.
Note:
Do not store AgriLife Silrich® P1 solution for more than 24 hours after mixing in water.
