Sapropel is a golden bottom of Beloye lake!
Sapropel is a unique natural material that is a multi-century bottom deposits originated from fresh
water lake called Beloye which is located in the Tukaevskiy region of the Tatarstan republic.
Sapropel is the matter of biologic origin generated at the bottom of fresh water lakes from remains of
flora and fauna as a result of bacterial processes running at a small access of oxygen.
Sapropel consists of silt solution, organic and ash components and colloid complex. The base of
sapropel is undecomposed remains of plant origin while colloid set is complex organic matters which form
jelly-like consistency of sapropel.
Wealth of different compounds in sapropel is created by the variety of simplest organisms of animal
and plant origin.

Sapropel from Beloye lake is rich in diverse macro and microelements which include nitrogen,
phosphorus, potassium, calcium, ferrum, sulfur, argentum, molybdenum, cobalt, magnesium,
manganese, copper, nickel, vanadium, zinc and many others. All vital macro and microelements
necessary for animals and plants are provided in optimal biological ratio, lightly soluble and easily
accessible condition.
Valuable group of biologically active matters is formed by vitamins B (В1, В2, В3, В6, В12), C, E
and others.
In protein content 17 types of amino acids were revealed.
Supplementary feed made with the addition of sapropel provide biogenetic stimulation and facilitate
more intensive growth, parturiating, lactation, resistibility and other processes in organism aimed at
improving total physiological state of animals.
Thus the unique composition of sapropel having mineral and organic parts makes it possible for
application in such fields as:
- plants growing – as a universal fertilizer and soil improver ;
- farm animals and birds breeding – as a feed additive;
- production of various feed products – as a basic component for compound feeds and concentrates, as
inert filler for premixes;
- production of sorbents for cleaning water and soil from oil products and heavy metals – as the basic
component.

Innovation
The innovation of the given project consists in development and of new products having no world
analogues by using unique properties of sapropel with their subsequent field testing.
Innovation in the production of ecologically clean feed additives and the development of new
mineral-organic feed additives based on sapropel and sapropel inert filler involves the following:
- feeding value of granular sapropel has been determined on the basis of its testing for chemical
composition, content of nutrients, macro and microelements;
- such properties of granular sapropel as subchronic, cumulative, embryotoxic and teratogenic have been
studied for the first time on laboratory animals;
- they have developed the series of Sapromix protein and vitamin-mineral concentrates adapted to
biogeochemical conditions of feed production in Tatarstan republic and revealed their productive effect
and economic expediency for application in the diet of dry and milking cows as well as their influence on
offspring quality;
- concentrates of Sapromix line allow to reduce portion of corn in the content of compound feed and corn
mixtures up to 4-5%
- in Sapromix+ concentrate the portion of urea, a substitute of feeding protein is 9% of the total weight or
77% of raw protein;
Large-scale application of Sapromix concentrates in the Tatarstan republic allows to replace from 50
up to 100 thousand tons of fodder-grain material providing the equivalent productivity.

Innovation in the production of eco-friendly granular fertilizer and development of new organomineral fertilizers based on sapropel consists in the following:
- accounting agrochemical properties of soil and specific properties of sapropel which ensure goal-oriented
formation of soil processes and reduced barrier for transformation of sapropel humic matters into soil
humus;
- new organo-mineral fertilizers with long-term effect contain up to 20% of calcium, optimal for plants
quantity of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and microelements like copper – up to 60 mg/100 g,
manganese – up to 3500 mg/100 g, cobalt – up to 350 mg/100 g, nickel – up to 100 mg/100 g, vanadium –
up to 200 mg/100 g and biologically active matters like vitamins, proteins, fats, enzymes, hormones,
carotenoids, antioxidants which serve as natural growth stimulators;
- new organo-mineral sapropel-based fertilizers can be applied to all types of soil and all kinds of plants
supplying yield increase for various crops from 30 up to 150%.

Fields of application and sales
Sales of the manufactured products are to be fulfilled in two ways:
- through dealer network under dealer contracts to sell 60% of the scheduled products volume;
- by own efforts through sales department of Kamskiy sapropel LLC to sell 40% of the scheduled
products volume.
Feed additives scheduled for manufacture are as follows:
- Sapromix vitamin-mineral concentrate is a uniform dry mixture of dried sapropel, macro and
microelements, vitamins and other biogenic components selected according to scientifically grounded
rates of animals need. Application rate is not less than 4-5% of the weight of compound feed or grain
mixture.
Ingredients: sapropel, boiled fodder salt, monocalcium phosphate, vitamin-mineral premix P-60-1 (P-603).
- Sapromix+ amido vitamin-mineral concentrate is a uniform dry mixture of dried sapropel, extruded
feed urea, rye and rape, macro and microelements, vitamins and other biogenic components selected
according to scientifically grounded rates of animals need. Application rate is not less than 10-15% of
the weight of compound feed or grain mixture. The concentrate makes a grain mixture completely
balanced with protein, macro and microelements, vitamins and other biogenic elements.
Ingredients: sapropel, boiled fodder salt, monocalcium phosphate, vitamin-mineral premix P-60-1,
extruded components: feed urea, rape and rye.
27
- Sapromix+ Energo amido protein and vitamin-mineral concentrate is a uniform dry mixture of dried

vitamins and other biogenic components selected according to scientifically grounded rates of animals
need. Application rate is not less than 10-20% of the weight of compound feed or grain mixture. The
concentrate makes a grain mixture completely balanced with protein, macro and microelements, vitamins
and other biogenic elements.
Ingredients: sapropel, boiled fodder salt, monocalcium phosphate, vitamin-mineral premix P-60-1,
extraction cake or oilseed meal, extruded components: feed urea, rape and rye.
For the project realization a special attention will be paid to sales of the sapropel-based feed
additives by own sales department.
The main consumers of the above products are:
- compound feed factories;
- poultry factories;
- animal breeding complexes;
- mini compound feed factories;
- farms (with account of feed base they have).
That is why the key part of sales process is not the shipment of goods but the support system that
includes the following services:
- selection of complete feed compound depending on present conditions for herd keeping;
- scientific consulting and recommendations for every farm in questions of animals feeding and using
sapropel-based feed additives;
- bringing application of sapropel-based feed additives to real economic effect for each farm.
28
Due to the above said as chief advisors providing scientific and technical support it is planned to
involve the following specialists:

Capacity of feed products market
Production volume of albuminous vitamin-mineral additives (AVMA) in the Russian Federation in
2011 was equal to 181 063 tons while the demand for AVMA in 2011 according to the volume of produced
combination fodders was about 900 000 tons. It means that the process line to be purchased
manufacturing 5 tons of AVMA with different formulas per hour will produce only 6% of the AVMA
production volume in 2011 and only 1.2% of the AVMA amount required in 2011. One should pay attention
to the fact that there is not any factory manufacturing AVMA in the Tatarstan republic.
To produce the amount of compound feeds used in the Tatarstan republic in 2011 it required to apply
about 140 thousand tons of feed additives purchased in other regions.
The factory for sapropel processing is equipped with operation line able to manufacture up to 12 000
tons of feed additives based on sapropel and thus working at full one-shift load Kamskiy sapropel LLC
will produce not more than 9% of the required quantity of feed additives in the Tatarstan republic.
Cost of feed additives given by different manufacturers vary from 21 to 58 roubles per 1 kg.
When calculating economic efficiency of the project the market value of the feed additives scheduled
for production equals to the following:
