Compared with traditional fertilizer equipment, the difference in cost is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

1. Energy consumption cost: The energy consumption of organic fertilizer equipment is relatively low. The oil and electricity consumption in the production process of organic fertilizer is very low, especially when the automatic control of aerobic fermentation composting technology is used, the main working machinery involved is only the equipment such as mixing machine, levelling machine and fan.

2. Raw material cost: The raw materials of organic fertilizer mainly come from organic waste, such as urban sludge, etc., while the production of fertilizer relies heavily on various fossil energy sources, including coal, natural gas and oil.

3. Economic cost input: The application cost of organic fertilizer is relatively high, mainly because its converted nutrients are much lower than fertilizers, so the application amount is larger, resulting in an increase in transportation costs and labor costs.

4. Environmental benefits: there is almost no "three wastes" emissions in the production process of organic fertilizer production lines, while the fertilizer industry emits more pollutants and has higher environmental protection costs.

5. Preferential policies: Organic fertilizer production enterprises receive relatively small support in policy supporting, such as preferential electricity prices, value-added tax concessions and transportation concessions, while fertilizer production enterprises, as large local profits and taxes, receive more attention in the local government.

6. Equipment investment cost: The investment cost of organic fertilizer production line is relatively low, especially for small and medium-sized production, which can be produced by simple facilities such as small forklift trucks, mobile flipping machines, shredders, etc., and the investment cost is between 100,000 and 300,000 yuan. For larger scale production, the investment cost will be higher, which may require 300,000-600,000 yuan or even more.
