Subject: Re: Value of 3000 gal liquid hog manure



Wean to finish and Farrow to finish are way different setups.

Gestation and Farrowing manure have way more water and less fert value than finishing does.

So a site that is Farrow to Finish and the manure is all mixed together would have less fert value in the manure than a strictly finishing site.

Gestating sows don't get much feed and farrowing crates get washed a lot. Both contribute to lower manure value.

12,000 gal from a Farrow to Wean site will be comparable to 3000 gal of finishing manure.
