Building an 8000 head dairy
The hog facility's are up, haven't had time to make the tour there but I was told the barn is one of the most advanced hog facilities technology wise around here.(quoted from post at 23:36:41 02/11/16) Fair Oaks Farm in IN is the one milking the 30,000 cows. It is located about 40 miles south of Gary IN on I65. They basically have their own exit off of 65. They have a restaurant and also give tours. I just heard in the past couple of weeks they are going to build a hog farm there also. I can't verify if that is true or not.
(quoted from post at 10:24:14 02/12/16) In MN you need a manure management plan for a facility like that....farmer needs to have contracts with other farmers that allow spreading (usually injecting) manure on their land. There are standards set as to the number of acres required. Often times, the manure is sold to those farmers. Liquid manure is analyzed for content so application rates of NPK are known. On our 70 cow dairy we hired a custom applicator, knew the gallons per acre applied, and nutrient content, so we knew actual pounds of NPK.
