Manure Management

Manure management refers to the proper handling, storage, treatment, and application of animal waste, such as from farms. Effective manure management aims to reduce environmental pollution, promote soil health, and ensure nutrient recovery for crops. Practices include composting, anaerobic digestion, and applying manure to fields in a controlled way to minimize run-off and odors. By managing manure responsibly, farmers can enhance soil fertility while protecting water quality and reducing greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to sustainable agricultural practices.
