Ensure proper storage of natural fertilizers on your farm to preserve their full nutritional value. Find out what are the current legal requirements for storing manure, slurry and manure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Storage of manures on large-scale farms<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Natural fertilizers of animal origin, that is, manure, slurry or manure, are the primary source of organic matter and nutrients for plants, and also a factor in increasing soil fertility. However, it is important to remember that nitrogen and phosphorus compounds present in manures can get into the groundwater and water bodies, and thereby negatively affect the environment. Therefore, it is important to ensure proper storage of natural fertilizers so that they do not pose a threat to humans and animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to current regulations, farmers who run large-scale farms large-scale farms obliged to ensure proper storage of of natural fertilizers, both solid and liquid. By Large-scale farms are defined as those entities that conduct "rearing of or rearing of poultry over 40,000 positions or rearing or rearing of pigs more than 2,000 posts for pigs of more than 30 kg in weight or 750 posts for sows" [Article 18 paragraph 1 of the Law of July 10, 2007 on fertilizers and fertilization (Journal of Laws of 2015, item 625)].<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Storage of manure and slurry<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In the case of large-scale farms, manure and slurry should be stored in airtight and closed tanks of such capacity, that allows storage of at least 4 months' production of these fertilizers. In addition, the tank for manure or slurry must be placed in such a place that is shaded and sheltered from the winds, so as to reduce the release of odors as much as possible. reduce the release of odors to the maximum extent. For the same reason, manure and slurry must be stored at an appropriate distance from livestock buildings. livestock buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Storage of manure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Natural fertilizers in solid form (manure) on farms Large-scale farms should be collected and stored in livestock housing. livestock or on manure pads, equipped with an installation discharging liquids into sealed tanks. The manure slab for storing manure must also have a bottom and walls made of materials that prevent leakage of manure into the ground (e.g., made of concrete or plastic plastic).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Storage of natural fertilizers in smaller farms<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to storing liquid fertilizers, the principle is the same as on large-scale farms. Slurry and manure tanks must be airtight, and their capacity should allow storage of a minimum of 4-month production of these fertilizers. In the case of manure storage current regulations do not specify how it should be stored. It is necessary However, it should be remembered that improper storage of solid fertilizers not only has a negative impact on the environment, but is also associated with the loss of valuable nutrients (among other reasons, we do not recommend storing manure on the ground).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Farms in Areas of Particular Concern (OSN)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Still other regulations apply to sites located in Areas of Particular Concern. More on this topic and on the very requirements for the storage of manure, slurry and manure can be found on the website of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, among others, and also in the Code of Good Agricultural Practice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
