Handling manure is a messy business, even more so when a pump can’t handle the solids that are fed into it. Standard manure pumps may be able to handle manure alone, but adding in the variables of animal bedding, twine and foreign solids often overwhelm these pumps. Conversely, Vaughan Chopper Pumps are designed for the dairy industry to handle manure and foreign solids. These cast steel-built pumps are ideal for multiple waste applications and provide non-clog solids handling for the life of the pump. Contact Vaughan Company to learn how a Chopper Pump can manage your manure and waste.

The flow of water through soil is a “highly dynamic process,” says Genevieve Ali, associate professor and researcher at the University of Manitoba. “It can vary from year-to-year, season-to-season, or even rainstorm-to-rainstorm.” It can also fluctuate depending on soil type and even if organic additions, like manure, are applied. Ali is lead author of a new study that shows water infiltrates deeper into cracking clay (vertisolic soils) when liquid hog manure is applied.

Turkey manure is a great source of nutrients for crops. Farmers understand that turkey waste is not waste at all, but a valuable (though smelly) resource. As a nitrogen and phosphorus source, it outpaces nearly every other livestock type.
