Anhydrous Proven Source Of Good Nitrogen
Kansas State University agronomist Lloyd Stone studied four nitrogen sources across three sites showing no soil harm from anhydrous ammonia. Crops yielded higher with all sources, pH dropped similarly by 0.5 to 0.7 units, manganese rose for all, and microbial populations increased after injection, debunking fears.

Hogs Manure Cuts Feed Costs Says Swine Expert
Diane Yeamans reports Frank Brazie, livestock specialist, says hog manure can supply feed nitrogen and other nutrients, reducing need for commercial fertilizer. He outlines nitrogen timing, phosphorus and potassium balance, and how bedding, rainfall, and manure management affect availability. Brazie compares barley oats and wheat as corn substitutes, noting protein, energy, and Lysine differences impact daily intake and costs.

Pig ration guidelines and ventilation safety in hog farming
Brazie outlines how pigs can be fed with barley and oats at diverse percentages from 30 to 80 percent, with gestating sows at 100 percent barley and oats and lactating sows limited to 80 percent oats. He cites caloric needs and seasonal adjustments, while Bozworth stresses ventilation, pit gas dangers, and recommended heat and humidity controls in farrowing houses.
