LIMBUA Kenya Implements Crawler Compost Turner and Crusher for Compost

Client: LIMBUA Ltd.
Location: Kenya
Contact Person: Lucas
Industry: Organic Farming & Agroforestry
Products Purchased: Tracked Compost Turner & Organic Waste Crusher
Application: Composting for Nursery and Garden Fertilizer

LIMBUA Ltd., headquartered in Kenya, is internationally recognized for its sustainable organic farming practices, particularly in the cultivation and export of macadamia nuts. With a commitment to regenerative agriculture, LIMBUA supports thousands of smallholder farmers and promotes ecological methods in its operations. As part of its continuous innovation, the company recently invested in composting equipment to enhance the production of organic fertilizer for its tree nurseries and gardens.

LIMBUA faced increasing volumes of organic waste from farm trimmings, nut husks, and garden residues. Manual composting methods were no longer sufficient to handle the volume and speed required, resulting in:

  • Incomplete compost decomposition
  • Poor compost quality and inconsistency
  • High labor demands and long composting cycles
  • Difficulties managing bulky raw materials

To ensure efficient and scalable composting, LIMBUA needed a professional solution for shredding raw materials and managing the aerobic composting process.

LIMBUA’s operations manager Lucas led the initiative to purchase a Tracked Compost Turner and an Organic Waste Crusher to modernize the composting process.

Key Features of the Organic Waste Crusher:

  • High-efficiency crushing of green waste, branches, and organic residues
  • Uniform particle size output ideal for composting
  • Durable blades with long service life
  • Easy maintenance and low energy consumption

Key Features of the Crawler Compost Turner:

  • Crawler drive system for stable movement on uneven terrain
  • Efficient aeration and mixing of compost piles
  • Adjustable drum height to accommodate different windrow sizes
  • Diesel-powered engine for off-grid farm applications

Following equipment delivery, the machines were installed at LIMBUA’s composting site and immediately put into operation. The crusher was first used to reduce the particle size of farm waste, which was then formed into windrows and processed by the tracked compost turner.

Operators were trained both on safety protocols and operational techniques to ensure effective use of both machines.

Composting Efficiency: Composting cycle reduced from 50–60 days to just 25–30 days

Fertilizer Quality: Finished compost showed improved structure, nutrient balance, and pathogen reduction

Waste Reduction: Over 80% of garden and nursery waste is now converted into usable fertilizer

Labor Savings: Mechanization reduced manual labor needs by more than 50%

Lucas and the LIMBUA team expressed high satisfaction with the equipment’s performance and the transformation it brought to their sustainability efforts.

With these machines, we’ve significantly improved compost quality and efficiency. It’s a major step forward in our mission to promote organic farming and support the environment.” — Lucas, LIMBUA Operations

The successful deployment of the tracked compost turner and crusher at LIMBUA in Kenya demonstrates how modern composting equipment can enhance organic fertilizer production for agroforestry and sustainable agriculture. LIMBUA’s case serves as a model for eco-conscious operations across Africa and beyond.
