THE VALUE OF COW DUNG
Cow dung is a common by-product of large-scale cattle farming and agricultural recycling. When processed correctly, it can be turned into valuable products like fertilizers, energy, substrates, and animal feed, making it a great example of turning waste into resource.
Fertilizer Use
Cow dung is commonly used as fertilizer due to its high mineral content and undigested plant residues. It is an ideal raw material for organic fertilizers, which are perfect for organic crops, flowers, and farmland.
Where can it be applied?
Energy
Large farms can use biogas digesters to convert cow dung into biogas for electricity generation. The dung can also be processed into fuel pellets for burning or sale.
Substrate and Feed
Cow dung, along with rice straw and crop residues, can be composted into substrates for mushroom cultivation or used as feed for protein-rich insects.

WHY USE A COW DUNG PELLET MAKING MACHINE
After recognizing the economic value of cow dung, a cow dung pellet making machine is used to convert it into a value-added product. The machine processes loose and perishable cow dung into dense, dry pellets, greatly improving storage, transportation, and marketability, while maximizing its overall value.
Solve dung disposal problems
Cow dung has high moisture content and large volume, which can cause odor, pests, and environmental pollution when stored outdoors. Large-scale farms also face high disposal costs and environmental risks. The RICHI cow dung pellet making machine converts dung into dry, dense pellets, reducing odor and volume while making transportation easier.
Increase dung value
Raw cow dung is difficult to use and may cause pollution if not properly treated. After pelletizing, it can be used for fertilizer, biomass energy, heating fuel, and cultivation substrates. This process transforms waste into a valuable and environmentally friendly resource.
Convenient Storage and sales
Loose cow dung is expensive to transport and usually processed near its source. Pelletizing greatly reduces its volume, making packaging, storage, and transportation more efficient, and allowing products to be sold to wider markets.
Achieve economic benefits
The RICHI cow dung pellet making machine is power-driven, easy to operate, and labor-saving. It offers stable performance, high efficiency, and reliable continuous operation, helping users achieve efficient manure recycling and long-term economic benefits.

Our cow dung pellet making machine uses advanced technology and high-quality materials to ensure efficient, stable, and energy-saving granulation. It is durable and suitable for a wide range of materials.
Ring Die Process
The ring die process is the most efficient and advanced pelletizing method. Compared with flat die systems, it offers higher output, more stable pellet quality, better wear resistance, and longer service life. Its continuous feeding and discharge make it ideal for large-scale production.
Imported motor and Bearings
We use imported SKF bearings and Siemens motors as the main drive components in our cow dung pellet mills, ensuring strong stability and long service life. SKF bearings feature low friction and high durability, reducing maintenance and replacement costs. Siemens motors deliver reliable, long-term power for high-intensity operation.
Up to 98% pelletizing rate
Our cow dung pellet mill achieves a pelletizing rate of up to 98%. Once the pre-treated material meets the required moisture and particle size, it is fed into the pellet machine where the ring die and pressure rollers form uniform pellets. The resulting pellets are consistent, stable, and high quality.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION
If you have any questions about RICHI’s cow dung pellet making machine, please feel free to contact us. Our technical consultants are available to assist you. Below are some frequently asked questions and answers that may help.
Can the same machine product both fuel pellets and organic fertilizer pellets?
Yes. However, the machine’s configuration and process parameters must be adjusted based on the material and end use. For fuel pellets, a high-compression ring die is needed to increase density and calorific value, resulting in harder pellets. For organic fertilizer pellets, a low-compression ring die is used so pellets can break down easily in soil. Moisture requirements also differ: 13–18% for fuel pellets and 20–30% for organic fertilizer pellets.
Please clean the machine before switching materials to avoid cross-contamination. For higher efficiency, we recommend using separate equipment for each pellet type. If you need more details, please leave your contact information and our technical consultants will assist you.
How much does it cost to set up a cow dung pellet production line?
The cost depends on many factors, including production capacity, raw materials, desired output, and site conditions. Because each project is different, it’s difficult to give an exact price for a complete production line.
However, the pellet machine—the core equipment—typically ranges from $7,000 to $100,000. If you want an accurate quotation, please leave your contact details and our technical team will provide a customized estimate based on your specific requirements.
Must cow dung be fully decomposed before making organic fertilizer?What happens if it isn’t?
Yes. Cow dung must be fully decomposed before it can be used as organic fertilizer. Using raw dung can cause secondary fermentation in the soil, generating heat that may burn roots and affect seed germination. It can also increase pathogens, insect eggs, and weed seeds, leading to higher disease and pest risks.
In addition, nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus in raw dung are mostly in organic form and are not easily absorbed by crops. This reduces fertilizer efficiency and may cause soil salinity and structural damage due to incomplete decomposition.
What are the uses of pellets made from cow dung?
Cow dung pellets can be used in several ways:
Substrate or feed – after composting with materials like rice straw, it can be used as mushroom substrate or as feed for certain insects.
Biomass fuel – for household heating, cooking, or industrial boilers, with high combustion efficiency and low emissions.
Organic fertilizer – rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, it improves soil structure and fertility.
Is the maintenance cost of the cow dung pellet machine high?
No. RICHI cow dung pellet making machines are designed for efficiency and durability, so maintenance costs are generally low. They use imported motors and bearings, with core components made from 42CrMo steel, ensuring stable operation and strong wear resistance.
In addition, the machines are equipped with safety protection devices. If large hard materials enter the pelletizer, a safety pin will break to cut off power, preventing damage and reducing maintenance costs.
