First of all, I would like to thank @strawberrry, the #ADMIN of the #SteemitContest #communities, who is presenting this contest.

Today I am going to present to this competition about the wonderful activities that I am running on a friend's farm. This started small but has now become a business that earns a lot of income. Organic fertilizer production is now his livelihood and career. All parts of the wild sunflower plant are used as a special ingredient.

_{I will give you a rough idea about wild sunflowers and this organic fertilizer production that he runs.}

Wild sunflower is a species of flower that has been genetically modified and hybridized with the sunflower, and this flower is a species of flowering plant in the daisy family native to North America. It is an attractive species of flower with bright yellow petals and a dark central disk in the middle of the flower. It is a plant that grows to a height of 6-12 feet. Also, the central disk of this flower is in the shape of the sun and that disk is made up of many small flowers. Also, this wild sunflower is a flower of seven or eight petals with a length of about a trench.

_{These flowers are usually 4 to 12 inches in diameter. They bloom in summer and fall and are a favorite of pollinators such as bees and butterflies. Wild sunflowers are often found in open fields, meadows, and roadsides. This flower is native to North America. It is widely distributed throughout the continent and can be seen throughout the continent.}

First of all, I mentioned in the post that I want to share with you some ideas about the organic fertilizer production that my friend is currently running. You can get an idea about his project from the photos below. There is something special to say. He has about 5 acres of land for this organic fertilizer production. A number of wild sunflowers have been cultivated.

_{Also, you can see in the following photos that he has planted flowers in every place.}

For the production of this organic fertilizer, he does not use only these flowers, but also uses several other ingredients. I will mention them separately below.

🔵	*Leaf litter*
🔵	*Degradable waste*
🔵	*Decomposed chicken dropping*
🔵	*Dried pig droppings*
🔵	*Cow dung excrement*
🔵	*Goat droppings*

🔴	The ratio is to add two (2) cubes of decomposed leaf litter to one (1) cube of animal waste.

_{Organic fertilizer is produced in a simple step. Only a mixer is needed for the production of this fertilizer. Other ingredients can be found in the natural environment. However, I will mention the steps required to produce organic fertilizer.}
