Three Steps For Successful Nutrient Management

Step 1: Determine What is present in Wastewater Sample before treatment.

Step 2: Determine Which Nutrients You want in the Solid and Which You want in the Liquid portions.

(Ideally, the nutrients are maintained in the Solid portion, unless it is time for increased liquid land application to promote crop season growth, at which time the contents can be altered through the Deskins "Quick-Dry" Filtration Process.)

Step 3: Install Deskins "Quick-Dry" Filtration Process, Receive Polymer and Enjoy the Results.

FOR
CONCENTRATED ANIMAL FEEDING OPERATIONS

The Strategy sets forth a framework of actions that USDA and EPA plan to take, under existing legal, regulatory authority and through voluntary incentive-based approaches, to minimize water quality and public health impacts from improperly managed animal manure and wastewater in a manner designed to preserve and enhance the long-term sustainability of livestock production. The AFO Strategy relies heavily on the stewardship ethic of producers. It is based on a national performance expectation that all AFO owners and operators should develop and implement technically sound, economically feasible, and site-specific comprehensive nutrient management plans (CNMPs) for properly managing the animal manure and wastewater produced at their facilities.

Successful in over 300 municipalities across the United States, the Deskins "Quick-Dry" Filtration Process is proven technology , costs less than most, is fully programmable, and can be placed into any system where Liquid-Solid Separation is desired.

As of September 2000, the Deskins "Quick-Dry" Filtration Process is now reviewed and recommended by the United States Department of Agriculture and North Carolina State University for highly-effective Liquid-Solid Separation of Swine Wastewater.

* On May 24, 1999, USDA-NRCS released the Policy for Nutrient Management and the revision to the conservation practice standard for Nutrient Management (Code 590). NRCS’s directive and supporting technical guide establishes policy for nutrient management and sets forth guidance to NRCS personnel who provide nutrient management technical assistance, and for the revision of the NRCS nutrient management conservation practice standard. These two documents will provide the framework for all nutrient management plans developed by NRCS for the agricultural community, which will be tailored by State Conservationists within a two-year period. As a result of the new policy, some producers may determine that they do not have sufficient land available to spread manure at appropriate rates for nitrogen and phosphorus and so may decide to pursue off-farm utilization options. See Appendix H for the Policy for Nutrient Management and the revised Technical Standard.
