This week’s highlighted resource is a project profile for an on-farm manure granulation plant.

On-farm granulation is becoming increasingly more common as the livestock industry transitions to large, concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) which produce massive amounts of manure. This manure must be dealt with in a way that maximizes its nutrient content, but protects the environment from excess nutrients. For this project, FEECO engineered a complete manure granulation facility for a large-scale dairy farm. We also utilized our testing facility, The Innovation Center, to develop a specialty fertilizer product from the farm’s source of manure, combined with a number of other additives.
