Capturing Valuable Nutrients from Manure

Matching the nitrogen and phosphorus content of manure to crops needs can be a challenge. Due to the volatile nature of nitrogen in manure, often times the N:P ratio is not aligned with crop needs. Applying manure to meet the nitrogen needs often results in excess phosphorus application. This webcast is the first in a series of 3 webcasts that will provide information on: the need to capture nutrients for recycling off-farm, global phosphorus supplies, and technologies that are being used on-farm to capture nitrogen and phosphorus from manure.

Presenters include:

• Joe Harrison, Washington State University
• Paul Fixen, International Plant Nutrition Institute
• Dana Kirk, Michigan State University
