I'm considering making my own fish fertilizer. There are large fish farms nearby that process their fish. I have a 170 acre farm and to use a ready made product like Neptunes Harvest on a large scale would be prohibitive. We also have a Lignite mine closeby and I am wondering what it takes to convert it to a useable form of Humate. I would like any insite on the processes involved with making these products.
Thank you, Oran Boyett

I,m thinking more of a hydrolized product not an emulsified one. Your thought will always be welcome. Thanks, Oran

I have bought a cheap blender from a flea market for making special "earthworm smoothies", as powerful soil biostimulants, made from various meat products or other forms of high protein food waste sources.

I don't think it matters that much if what you making is more liquified or more like a chunky soup, for food sources for beneficial soil organisms.
