[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1026832, member: 498"] Is it solid or liquid? There are certainly big differences in dairy manure. How is the manure handled? How well are the cows fed? The typical dairy manure from a lagoon in this area will test about 16 pounds of N per 1,000 gallons. Seperated solids are pretty much worthless as a fertilizer. They test very poorly for any nutrients. Straight solid manure, as in manure pushed up into a pile will test pretty good. You listed the price as $30/ton/acre. Is it $30 a ton or $30 per acre because a ton wouldn't be nearly enough for an acre. Just as in soil, a person should test. That way you know what you are getting and how much you need. [/QUOTE]
