The invention discloses a slow-release type fertilizer special for rice and a preparation method thereof. The fertilizer is prepared from, by weight, 10-40 parts of fallen leaves, 10-40 parts of phosphate rock powder, 5-25 parts of bean dregs, 1-10 parts of copper sulfate, 1-15 parts of sludge, 10-30 parts of monoammonium phosphate, 1-15 parts of chicken manure, 0.5-8 parts of sodium borate, 10-60 parts of urea, 1-10 parts of sodium humate, 5-25 parts of clay and 10-30 parts of potassium sulfate. The fallen leaves, the phosphate rock powder, the bean dregs, copper sulfate, the sludge, monoammonium phosphate, the chicken manure, sodium borate, urea, sodium humate, the clay and potassium sulfate are mixed and stacked for 4 h to 5 h, stirring and mixing are conducted again, granulation is conducted after drying is conducted, and the slow-release type fertilizer special for the rice is obtained. According to the slow-release type fertilizer special for the rice, various elements are slowly released by stage to supply nutrient elements for growth of the rice, the preparation method is simple, feasible and suitable for large-scale implementation, and the yield of the crops is increased by 10% to 20% on average by applying the fertilizer.
