Manure Collection & Conveyance
Manure collection
Manure collection, moving manure from the barn to storage, and from storage to land application, is a critical part of the manure management system. Factors such as site topography, building layout, climate, and management style impact type of conveyance. Capital and operating costs, as well as the maintenance requirements, need to be considered.
