Abstract 

The objective was to determine optimal litter composition parameters for industrial poultry houses. The most preferable ratio of natural mineral sorbents to manure was found. We studied the technologies of processing poultry manure into a formed product contributing to soil structuring and providing plants with balanced fertilization with microelements (nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium).
