Litter Treatments

Discover how TERRA LIFE and MICRO-D can revolutionize your poultry house management by enhancing bird health, energy efficiency, and providing a valuable soil amendment byproduct that you can use on crops.

Chickens inside a large poultry farm, with many birds walking around and red feeding systems lining the walls. The floor is covered with bedding material.

By reducing ammonia and moisture levels in your poultry houses, you not only promote the health of your birds but also decrease heat energy expenditures.

TERRA LIFE is an all-natural litter treatment that uses its zeolite mineral composition and porosity to adsorb bacterium-causing ammonia inside poultry houses. Its cation exchange bonds ammonia within the porosity of the mineral. It has an extreme porosity with an equivalent surface area of 15.7 cubic meters per gram, making it ideal for use in poultry houses. One application lasts up to 12 months.

Dermatitis Control
By keeping your litter healthy, you can dramatically reduce the risk of getting dermatitis and skin irritations that stem from bad litter. Farmers report to us that they have used the MICRO-D product to successfully control dermatitis. You can apply it directly onto birds using a conventional AG backpack sprayer.

Enhanced Microbial Harmony
By combining TERRA LIFE and MICRO-D, microbial organisms find TERRA LIFE a welcoming home, further enhancing the adsorption and bonding of nutrients to the TERRA LIFE substrate.

This synergy fosters a thriving microbial ecosystem, avoiding the harmful consequences associated with chemical treatments that indiscriminately eliminate both beneficial and harmful microbes essential for defending against litter pathogens. It also facilitates litter decomposition.

Treating your litter as a living organism is an essential step in creating a healthy living environment for your birds. The result of this powerful natural combination is effective ammonia and moisture control that keeps delivering flock after flock.

Warm in Winter, Cool in Summer
Due to its inherent properties, TERRA LIFE retains heat for extended periods and absorbs moisture, reducing the energy needed to achieve the optimal temperature for chick placement and maintaining it over time. When the litter is not heated in warmer months, TERRA LIFE absorbs moisture, lowering humidity, and effectively keeping the birds cooler.

Quality Soil Amendment Byproduct
By using TERRA LIFE as a litter treatment, farmers have a nutrient-rich litter soil amendment byproduct. TERRA LIFE is particularly valuable at holding and slowly releasing valuable nutrients to plants, mainly ammonium nitrogen (NH4+), potassium (K+), magnesium (Mg2+), and trace elements.

TERRA LIFE buffers the pH of the soil and increases its overall cation exchange and nutrient-holding capacity. The water retention capability of TERRA LIFE also lowers irrigation requirements by increasing the water-holding capacity of sandy soils and improving drainage in clay-rich soils.

Using TERRA LIFE reduces nitrate leaching by inhibiting the nitrification of ammonium to nitrate. As the product holds a significant percentage of its weight in water, leaching, and surface runoff are reduced.

MICRO-D

MICRO-D by TOMIGUNN is an all-natural diverse complex of microbes and natural extracts that helps to rebuild essential organic compounds in poultry litter. By enhancing the decomposition process, MICRO-D increases nutrient availability in poultry litter, particularly preserving nitrogen content, which is crucial for soil health.

TERRA LIFE

TERRA LIFE by TOMIGUNN is an all-natural litter treatment that uses its highly porous mineral composition to adsorb ammonia, lower humidity and binds dust. TERRA LIFE ensures a more productive habitat for poultry growth and makes an ideal soil amendment when saturated litter is applied to crops.
