[QUOTE="aaroninga, post: 1355709, member: 24879"] I'm not sure what percentage is actually litter but would guess 50-60??? By weight it would also depend on moisture content. My garden area does best when after turning it under again 2-3 weeks later and you can smell it's been fermenting. Rule of thumb around here is a ton per acre on hay fields. I'll put a ton an acre on pastures in October. Maybe again in spring. I wasn't all that happy with commercial 21-7-14 this spring. I can get 10 tons litter, $60 ton spread for the price of 1 ton commercial fertilizer. Wow 4 tons an acre would get pricey. [/QUOTE]
