Utilization of bedded cattle confinement for organic manure of maize crop

Abstract: The use of organic wastes from housing systems in a compost bedded pack barn model could supply much of the fertiliser demand in the farm. Moreover, with the increase in food consumption from sustainable livestock, the use of compost generated in the farm itself becomes economically viable. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of organic manure from bedded cattle confinement applied at different moments on maize crop. The experiment was carried out in a randomized blocks with five treatments and five repeti… Show more

“…The housing system can affect dairy cow welfare and performance and has a major influence on the ecological footprint and consumer perception of dairy farming [ 1 ]. Therefore, the use of bedding material compost from sheds as organic manure is recommended as a sustainable alternative in the reuse and treatment of waste from cattle confinement farms [ 27 ]. The CBP system is ecologically more sustainable because most animal waste is incorporated into the bed and only the waste from the feeding track, transit area, and milking area are directed to the lagoon [ 12 ].…”
