DESCRIPTION

LIQUID FERTILIZER of NATURAL ORIGIN and PRODUCTION TECHNIQUES

The invention relates to a fertilizer, obtained by means of fermentation, which composes of nutrients in form of organic compounds and facilitates the nutrient intake by upgrading the physical and the chemical structure of the soil.

The invention b^ing a special fertilizer that stimulates the stored, dormant energy (bacteria motility) existing in soil, provides soil to throw up.

The fertilizer used today, is a product which composes of nutrients in form of organic compounds, facilitates the nutrient intake by upgrading the physical and the chemical structure of the soil, improves the water holding capacity and efficiency and consists of biotic waste (of plants, animals, etc.) or of waste products. Fertilizers are made up of animal wastes such as bones, horns, nails and skin, human and animal excrements (liquid and solid), fallen plant leaves and pedicles, all kinds of faggot, weeds, vegetable leftovers, tea leftovers, rotten feeds, cottonseed pulp, not harvested plants that merge into the soil as a whole, and also of decomposed and burned garbage.

In agriculture; it will be possible to produce abundant and cheap fruit and vegetables containing no chemical residue, using active microorganisms (yeast, lactic acid bacteria, photosynthesis bacteria, beneficial fungi).

In our country, the emergence of modernization in agriculture in the midst of the 20^th century brought along incremental increase in problems. When we look at all the elements present in the soil, we can see that the same elements can be found in our body. There are hundreds of thousands of microorganism in only one gram of soil. These microorganisms give life to the soil. Because of the chemical fertilizers and pesticides that have been used for years, the soil has lost a high proportion of its microorganisms and organic matter. According to the research done, a great majority of soil in our country is classified as 'very poor' in terms of organic matter. The chemical name for the phenomenon caused by pesticide and chemical substances in the soil is 'oxidation'. This means that the organic matter in soil (including microorganisms, because they also are an organic matter) looses electrons and becomes positively charged, in other words, the organic matter looses its energy while decomposing. For example; one of the applications that emerged recently is the application of 'Hydrogen Peroxide' to soil. Hydrogen Peroxide is an excessively oxidant substance. It is true that it kills harmful microorganisms but not only does it kill the harmful ones, it also kills all living creatures in the soil and oxidizes organic matter. It does what chemical fertilizers and pesticides do in years, in a split second. What is important is treating the unproductive soil and immunizing it so that it never becomes unproductive again. The way of achieving this is by implanting organic matter and beneficial microorganisms into the soil and by accomplishing the decomposition of organic matter into humus by means of fermentation and not oxidation.

When there is oxidation in soil, pests, diseases come along and the soil becomes a source for diseases. Whereas in a fermentation environment, as a result of the interaction between organic matter and microorganisms; vitamins, bioactive and antioxidant substances come to light and the soil becomes a disease healing one. These substances play a very important part in making oils productive and remedial. In fermentation, organic matter is decomposed by microorganisms but unlike in oxidation it keeps its energy and becomes humus. This energy thereby is used by plants growing in soil. Plants growing in such soil are healthier, have natural resistance to pests and diseases and are tastier naturally.

In GB9508400 numbered patent document, the process of producing a fertilizer from an organic waste is defined. It involves the processing of an alkalinized waste product containing less than 90% of water with enough nitrogen dioxide or any precursor to lower its PH to at least 2.0 PH units.

In US-A-5125951 numbered patent document, fertilizer obtained with the hydrolysis of organic components is defined. Oxidation technique is applied for .

the fertilizers produced here. As for our invention, the liquid fertilizer is produced with the fermentation technique.

As a consequence, the need for alternative production techniques to the ones available and the deficiency of present solutions entailed development in the concerning technical field.

The purpose of our invention is to provide the production of environment-friendly liquid fertilizers that ensure the efficiency intended with the application of organic agriculture and are produced with the fermentation technique that enables the intake of nutrients, improving highly the physical and the chemical structure of the soil.

Our invention is a liquid fertilizer, a fermentation product, improved to ameliorate the physical, chemical and the biological environment of our country's soil on which agricultural production is made. The liquid fertilizer becomes ready for use, going through the below stated phases.

For preparing a 1000 liters of liquid Bactermosoil;

1. Vinegar fermented with seeded red grapes. This is 12-13 degreed vinegar obtained by adding salt to the grape juice separated from its seeds and making it wait in an airy environment. 500 liters of the vinegar obtained is used.

2. The fresh cow manure used for the purpose of increasing the quantity of amino acids, vitamins, and other bioactive substances that promote the plant growth, using lactic acid bacteria present in the vinegar for increasing the population of fungi that can undergo fermentation such as ASPERGILLUS and RHIZOPUS with fresh cow manure rich on nitrogen. 250 grams of this fertilizer is used.

3. The fresh horse manure providing average temperature used for the purpose of accelerating fermentation. 250 grams of this fertilizer is used. According to the researches done, more bacteria form in horse manure fertilizers than in other fertilizers.

4. 500 grams of Salicylic Acid. Increasing the quantity of salicylic acid in plants provides plants to be more resistant to important pathogens. Consequently, all information on the effects of salicylic acid on the resistance to diseases show that it serves the criteria identified for plant hormones.

5. 500 liters of chlorine-free brackish or artesian water.

500 liters of 12-13 degreed vinegar is poured into a plastic tank. 500 grams of salicylic acid is added to provide melting. 250 kilograms of fresh cow manure and 250 kilograms of fresh horse manure are added to the vinegar. After 500 liters of chloride-free water is added on, the lid of the tank is closed firmly and left waiting in a sunless, dark place of constant temperature of 30-35 degrees for 7-10 days until the gas discharge is completely over or decreased. To enable the gas discharge, an air hole is made on the top of the plastic tank. After all the air is discharged, the liquid is filtered. The liquid obtained by means of fermentation, waits from 3 to 6 months in a constant temperature, sunless and dark environment and becomes ready for use.

The distinction of the liquid obtained as a result of the steps followed above from the other fertilizers is that it is made by means of fermentation and not oxidation and that it is rich in beneficial microorganisms.

With oxidation, the organic matter contained in the fertilizers, permitted to be heated at high temperatures such as 70-90, loose most of its natural energy. Our liquid fertilizer which is produced by means of fermentation at lower temperatures keeps its energy substantially. When it is applied to soil, it passes this energy to soil and to the plants. That is why fertilizer produced by means of fermentation is more beneficial for plants. Besides, the following bacteria it contains also have essential benefits for the soil and the plants on it; 1. Photosynthesis Bacterium: These are independent bacteria supporting their own lives by themselves. These bacteria, using sunlight and soil's heat as energy sources, synthesize beneficial substances from root excretions, organic matter and hazardous gases (hydrogen sulfide) which promote the growth and development of plants. These beneficial substances are directly absorbed by plants and act as a growing environment (substrate) for bacteria.

2. Lactic Acid Bacterium: It produces lactic acid from glucoses and other carbohydrates produced by photosynthesis bacterium and yeast. It is by this means that yogurt and pickles are made. Lactic acid is a very powerful sterilizer. It suppresses the hazardous bacteria and accelerates the deformation of the organic matter. Lactic acid bacteria prevent the spreading of Fusarium which is a hazardous microorganism that causes to diseases in plants in constantly cultivated areas, and destroys slowly the Nematode formations.

3. Yeast: The secretions of yeasts provide a growing environment for lactic acid bacteria and beneficial microorganisms.

On soils in which bacteria are dominant, plants grow extremely well, be of high quality and give tasteful fruit and vegetables.

It will from now on be possible with our fertilizer obtained by means of fermentation to provide people a healthy growth and feed them with high quality and safe food by ameliorating the physical, chemical and biological environment of soil and by cultivating foods purified from toxic and chemical substances.

The application of 200 liters of our invention to each decare of the upper soil that has deficiency of organic matter, will provide benefit to the soil, plant and the economic condition of the agriculturist, even though it took time to find the best conditions according to soil and the product cultivated. The invention will improve productiveness and product quality in return to using less chemicals in fertilizers. It is extremely easy and beneficial to apply the invention to industry and to use it as a fertilizer.
