Manure Auger Increases Consistency

Our team is using a new tool this season to spread chicken manure more consistently across the fields.  Increased volumetric consistency along the lines reduces root burn and offers more regular amounts of nutrition and organic matter for each of the plants.  

A small front end loader scoops a couple hundred kilos of chicken manure and an auger bored into the scoop evenly disperses the manure in a line as the vehicle drives.  Piece of cake.





This is the first one of these machines to be used in the Jordan Valley and early adoption is exactly what we are about!
