Too much manure? How much is too much?

If not properly cared for, this can cause problems
on your land by:

  • compromising water quality (well and ground)
  • causing nitrate salts to damage soils
  • attracting flies-unhealthy for you and your animals
  • causing odor problems

Manure vs. chemical fertilizers

In the past, manure was seen as a valuable part of a farm or a ranch's soil fertility. With the use of chemical fertilizers, we have often forgotten the inherent value of manure.

How can you get the most value from manure?

Handled properly-turned into compost-manure will supply more comprehensive fertility than any chemical fertilizer.

Local farmers and gardeners may be interested in your livestock manure.  To find interested parties, create a FREE listing right here at www.NevCoMAX.com .

The excellent hostess of this amazingly FREE program is the lovely & talented Marney Blair who has just updated and revised the new 36 page "Nevada County Manure Composting Manual".

Have just a few simple questions? or need full blown help in a big way? Give them a call. . . . It's FREE!

May all your acres be green ones,

Paul
