Manure Management

Manure management is the capture, collection, transport, storage, handling, treatment, application and utilization of animal manures in an environmentally sustainable manner.

Economically recycling manure to supply plants with most of their nutrient needs while minimizing the environmental impact is the main goal of manure management (Nutrient Management).
