Turning Compost & Bedding Pack Barn

https://organicentourage.com/
Making good compost starts with the right ratio of nitrogen (manure) with dry matter (carbon like sawdust and straw) along with mixing and introducing air to promote healthy microbial growth. The bedding pack barn starts the process of composting the manure mixed with sawdust that is continued in windrows nearby. This is new system that's being put in place and like all new endeavors has its challenges. Figuring out the right amount of sawdust to work into the bedding pack on a daily basis along with trying to cope with impact of all the wet and freezing weather on the compost windrows has been challenging. Nonetheless, the conventional practice of pumping liquid manure into holding ponds that are breeding grounds for all manner of nasty bacteria that is then sprayed out onto fields make absolutely no sense.
