有机肥料 /yǒu jī féi liào/

Agriculture | n. phr.

A fertiliser that is not made from chemical products, but comes from natural organic resources such as animal or plant remains.

Example

More eco-friendly cultivation techniques are being explored such as using the branches cut down from the pruning of olive trees as an organic fertiliser, instead of the normal practice of burning. This also allows for further processing of the waste for use as biofuels.
