MANURE DISPOSAL

• Considerable quantities of lairage waste in the form of bedding and dung require periodic removal, preferably to an elevated, covered site near the lairage, from which it can be conveniently reloaded for removal.
• It is convenient to load it directly on to a large trailer, which can be removed as necessary.
• The manure obtained from the stomachs and intestines of slaughtered animals requires separate treatment.
• It is sometimes used as compost and manure production.
