Comparison Of Slurry Tanker Spreader And Drag-Hose Application Systems

Abstract

Slurry consists of a mixture of solid and liquid faeces of cattle and small ruminants, barn cleaning water and straw. It is a mud consistency and a

valuable organic fertilizer. It reduces the cost of chemical fertilizers and prevents environmental pollution. Tanker spreader or

drag-hose application systems are used to distribute liquid manure. It is surface

applied directly on the soil or injected or mixed below the soil at a certain

depth. In this article, slurry tanker spreader or drag-hose application

systems were compared in terms of soil compaction, bad odor potential,

nitrogen conservation and time loss.

Keywords: Slurry, tanker spreader, drag-hose application systems, soil
