Manure Management and Comprehensive Nutrient Management Plans (CNMP)

We have the knowledge and experience to help you with Comprehensive Nutrient Management Plans (CNMP), commonly known as manure management plans. We can help you qualify for USDA funds such as EQUIP, WQIP, and other cost share programs. We can help you develop a plan to comply with regulatory agencies. We provide technical assistance if you need help becoming compliant with a government regulatory agency.

We have written plans in Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Missouri, Kentucky and Tennessee. We provide complete documentation to keep you in compliance today and in the future as new CAFO rules and regulations are instituted.

Best of all, we tailor your CNMPs or LMFA to your operation. We don't throw your information into some cookie-cutter computer software that spits out a plan that will not work for you or your farm. During our data collection interview, we actually determine how you want to handle your animal wastes and develop a plan accordingly. We can work with your equipment suppliers and match application technology to crop nutrient needs and nitrogen management. At $500.00 per ton of anhydrous ammonia, you don't need to buy nitrogen when you have it in the pit, lagoon or on the stack pad.

Our professionals can provide you a complete turnkey operation including soil fertility management based on maximum animal waste application.
