Missaukee Mi | Looking for ideas on how to transfer manure from a barn we would like to put alley scrapers in to a cement lined pit by another barn. We have an old clay pit that is too small by that barn and the cement pit is big enough if we go to twice a year hauling and then we would only have one pit to empty. We looked into a piston pump but at 50-60k for the pump and pipe alone it's alot more than we would like to put into it for a herd of 65 jerseys. Thought about pouring a small pit (week or twos worth) on the north end that the scrapers could dump into and then either pump it over some how or transfer with a tank. The manure does have sand.
The barn we want to come from is red and the pit is marked in blue. Looking for cost effective and creative ideas
