In Lithuania stable organic fertilizer granules, which could be used for crop fertilization, have not been yet investigated and made. There were produced stable granules with the moisture content from 24.3 to 25.9 %. These fertilizers contain 2.76 % nitrogen (N), 1.34 % phosphorus (P2O5), 5.45 % potassium (K2O), 0.6 % magnesium (Mg), 2.1 % calcium (Ca) and other trace elements. There were analyzed and evaluated the factors and the granulation process parameters that influence the granulated compost fertilizer granules geometrical characteristics and physical- mechanical properties. There are reviewed and evaluated the indicators for determining the quality parameters of the granular material and the granulated compost fertilizer chemical composition.
