Manure Best Management Practices

Jessica Davis, Richard Koenig and, R.P. Flynn (December, 2010)

Summary

Many manure management guides and regulations are based on the acidic soils and high precipitation climatic patterns common to the mid-West and eastern United States. Western climates and soils are very different from eastern conditions and warrant BMPs tailored to these conditions in order to maximize the beneficial reuse of manure while minimizing the pollution potential.
