Amount Of Manure

Categories: STABLE MANURE

Vivian states that the amount of manure that may be

made from feed can be determined by multiplying the total weight of dry

matter in the feed by 3. This assumes that bedding will be used in

sufficient amount to absorb the urine, and that will require material

containing one fourth as much dry matter as there is in the feed. When

the amount of hay and grain is known, and the dry matter in all

succulent feed is estimated, the total product of manure in tons can be

arrived at with fair accuracy.
