Poultry Litter Transfer
Poultry Litter Transfer
World events have increased the costs of chemical fertilizers significantly. Now is the time to begin securing a source of poultry litter for fertilizer later this growing season. Poultry litter is the combination of poultry manure and wood shavings used for bedding in commercial poultry houses. It is an excellent fertilizer and is much less expensive than equivalent quantities of chemical fertilizer nutrients. Some areas of the Virginia with high concentrations of poultry production have more litter than their farm fields can effectively utilize. Virginia’s poultry litter transport incentive program is designed to facilitate the efficient use of poultry litter as a crop nutrient source in areas that can most benefit from those nutrients and that are outside of the main poultry-producing counties. 05/24/2023 12:00 AM
