Fertilizer on the move

I assume you have to pay a portion of the application cost?
So many people view spreading manure as waste disposal instead of a nutrient application, makes no sense. Done properly with decent amounts you can see the benefit for years.

When you drive by a field of manure and you smell it that is your nutrients gasing off. It needs to be injected or incorporated as soon as possible or you lose the majority. There is actually a law that you have to incorporate within 48hrs, not that most do.

In Quebec lots of farms have a newer large machine shed, there was a government program that cost shared the construction of manure storage buildings. Idea being you put your manure under cover on concrete until you can spread it to keep it from leaching away.

A couple years ago the local hutts spread 4 sections of manure in early March. By late March it looked like there was oil in all the water runs and ditches.

Yes, we pay the cost to put the product on. It is worth it the land now produces like it should like it would of if farmers never SMF for 100 years.
