Rokosan
Transforming Organic Fertilizers with Revolutionary Waste Processing

Increasing awareness of the long-term effects of chemical fertilizers like soil degradation and water pollution is pushing producers worldwide to adopt organic fertilizers in their farms.

At the forefront of innovating these organic fertilizers is Rokosan, a company revolutionizing the use of animal by-products in waste utilization. It creates organic, nutrient-rich, and highly efficient fertilizers by processing poultry, feathers, hoofs, horns, and sheep wool. These by-products are used in its broad product portfolio, which includes growth stimulator, seed coating, soil preparation and loose fertilizers.

Rokosan’s fertilizers are developed to enhance all stages of a plant life cycle. Its fertilizer product line includes ROKOLAN for soil conditioning, ROKOAKTIV for seed coating, and ROKOHUMIN, a liquid amino acid fertilizer for better plant health. ROKOSAN nutrition technology is composed by usage of all three products jointly. The holistic impact of these products enhances yield quantity and quality while eliminating the need for chemical fertilizers.

One of the main advantages of Rokosan’s fertilizers is their essential AAA amino acid content, which are crucial proteins that boost growth and development in all living organisms. When plants are supplied with these amino acids through its fertilizer, they grow stronger and produce a higher yield. One of the most prevalent effects is protection of plants from harsh conditions such as drought and frost.

Other vital components of Rokosan’s fertilizers are humic acids, NPK, and mitogen-activated protein kinase.

This naturally-generated substance plays a crucial role in plant development, helping them respond to stress and disease and regulate growth and metabolism.

In the central European market, where chemical fertilizer usage is currently at 500 kilograms per hectare, Rokosan’s fertilizers offer a viable replacement. It delivers the same outcomes with 65 litres of product, ultimately cutting fertilization costs by 30 percent while enhancing yields. This competency reinforces Rokosan to spread awareness about investing in sustainable agriculture practices to achieve better outcomes and healthier ecosystems.

“Since we can process waste into fertilizers, we are thinking of enhancing the whole circle. We offer a solution for low-income countries to become self-sufficient in producing organic agricultural inputs and become a part of the movement toward greener economies,” says Adam Szoke, director of business strategy for International markets of Rokosan.

Highlighting the importance of Rokosan’s work in enhancing the lives of farmers is a success story where it helped producers in Uzbekistan achieve desired yields in harsh conditions. Thanks to its organic fertilizer, microorganisms could grow in the degraded soil, leading to successful cotton yields even during a drought. This significantly improved the farmers’ livelihoods, who could sell organic cotton at a premium price.

Another crowning achievement was in Slovakia, where Rokosan helped the government with afforestation initiatives after the local landscape was severely affected by wildfires and natural catastrophes. This project cemented its position as a reliable partner with a proven record of establishing more than 50,000 hectares of forest and fertilizing them. Subsequently, Rokosan founded the Association of Organic fertilizer Producers of Slovakia as a way to help local producers boost their yield. Above all, Rokosan’s products represent a waste utilization and fertilization breakthrough. Company was awarded national ENERGY GLOBE AWARD in 2022 for its innovative ideas.

Moving forward, Rokosan plans to create highly efficient, nutrient-rich organic products by finding new methods to process animal by-products. It aims to help farmers worldwide by discovering ways to improve yields, reduce environmental impact, and achieve their goals.
