DESCRIPTION
http://www.extension.org/67703 In high yielding row crop intensive regions the role of swine manure as a crop nutrient source has increased in value, replacing the purchase of increasingly expensive commercial fertilizer by providing the nutrient needs of crops. Nutrients from manure are recycled to fertilize high yielding crops in an environmentally friendly, synergistic system. Access to the value of the nutrients in manure has been a primary motivation for constructing swine facilities. However, as the energy cost of swine diets has increased, feeding programs have been dramatically changed. Changes in ingredients composition has changed from manipulations of dietary formulations. These changes can alter the nutrient composition of the resulting manure and thus the nutrient value of the manure as fertilizer. What does not occur is the consideration that owners/users of the manure composition and if changes need to be made in application rates for optimizing fertilizer rates for crops.

Economic Analysis of Swine Diet Cost Vs Manure Value
Dave Stender* and Matt SwantekISU Swine Field Specialist712-261-0225 or [email protected]
Formulating for better utilization of nutrients National Center for Manure and Animal Waste Management - Summary
Lower dietary CP results in reduce N excretion ranging
from 28 to 62%
The average reduction in N excretion per unit of dietary CP
reduction was 8.4%
Research has shown that phytase addition will reduce P
excretion from 25 to 35%.
.
Objective: To illustrate dietary formulations affect the fertilizer value of manure
• Construction of a barn – manure’s worth• Not all manure is equal
oDiet formulation impacts manure nutrient value
o Full $ value (NPK) manure versus $ nitrogen o Effect of water management/wastageo Determination of manure yield per pig using
a manure tests
Methodology • A swine feeding template was modified to
incorporate NRC 2012 Swine Nutrient for nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) requirements.
• Total dietary N and P were calculated and the difference between totals and requirements was consider nutrient excretion.
• Feeding programs and scenarios were analyzed
Looking at an Example using the Following Dietary & Performance Assumptions:

Feed Savings per Pig in Our Example
• Base diet $105.49 feed cost per pig• Adding lysine $104.40 feed cost per pig

reduced to 4.77 with low protein added amino acid diet.
• A difference of 2.15 lb N worth $.55/lb is $1.18 reduction in manure N value

Another Example Comparing DDGS addition
• Adding lysine diet - $104.40 feed cost per pig• Adding DDGS - $105.82
• Feed cost increase per pig = $1.42• How much is the manure increase?• From the model 4.77 lb of N per pig in manure
is increased to 7.87 with DDGS • A difference of 3.10 lb N worth
$.55/lb is $1.71 increase in manure N value

Range in Value Because of Feed Formulation
• The range from the highest value manure to the lowest is $43.25/1000 gallon
• In our model 8.3836 pigs per 1000 gallon• $5.16 difference per pig• About $23,500 on a 2400 hd site
Lowest cost haul – field next to barn leading to potential over-application of nutrients in that field, especially P an K• Instead of over application of P and K on a
field next to the barn testing very high, transport the manure to a field with low P and K soil test.
• Economically, cost of haul, time is a huge factor (lost opportunity income from short haul jobs)
Nutrient dense, higher value manure is more likely to be transported to more environmentally friendly fields
• For example, if hauling cost is $15/ 1000 gal and it takes twice as long to haul to a low P and K testing field, then opportunity cost is $30/1000 gal
• Would you be more likely to take extra time to haul a tank worth $85/1000 gal or $42 to a low testing field?
The Value of N in Manure• Through diet formulation the value of N in Manure
can be as low as $19 of N per 1000 gal, or 1.9 cents per gallon.
• Manure application expense is in the $15/1000 gal or 1.5 cent per gallon range
• If the farm has 30% water wastage the hauling cost increases 30% (1.5 *130% = 1.95)
• Assuming very high P and K (no crop benefit during life of
the barn), even $900/ton($.55/lb N) anhydrous ammonia commercial fertilizer would be economically superior to this swine manure
Drinkers - water usage/waste
Water usage/wastage changes the manure test• Rule of thumb is 13% dry matter with no
water wastage or wash water.• Typically 6 to 7 % solids for most manure
tests• Goal is 10% solids – manure values will
increase
Thinking in terms of nutrient yield check in pigs• Base line diet without added DDGS will yield 6.92 lb. of
N per pig.• Check your N output per pig with the following formulas:• First, calculate accurate gallons removed per year –
cubit feet times 7.5• Divide by total number of pigs on feed for the year to
get gallons per pig• 1000 divided by gallons per pig to get number of pigs
per 1000 gallons• Manure test value (# per 1000 gal) divided by number
of pigs per 1000 gallon equals lb per pig
Take Home Points• Diet formulation will change the nutrient content and value
of manure substantially• Don’t build a swine facility for manure unless you have
influence on diet formulation• Water usage/wastage will change the manure test• Higher manure nutrient content will make it more feasible to
haul to low soil test fields• Manure nutrients are variable and accurate testing is
essential• Measure the depth of manure applied per year to
determine the gallons of manure per pig, and determine the nutrient yield and value on a per pig or per space basis using the manure test values
