What is Nutrient Management?Common Sense.
Combine on-farm nutrient sources, with commercial fertilizer, to meet crop need.
On-farm nutrient sources (manure)
Commercial fertilizer
Minimize nutrient losses
Soil reserves

Potassium
Dairy Animal Health Concern
Too Much in Ration: Ketosis / Milk Fever

Bacteria
E. Coli Up to 6 month + viable in soil
Does not survive as well on surface
Enters streams when manure runs off

Antibiotics
Animals DO NOT break them down. Excreted intact with the urine Low level resistance concerns

Biochemical Oxygen Demand
* A measure of how much oxygen is removed from a water body by the bacteria breaking down organic materials. (BOD)
Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD)* Oxygen required to break down
chemical compounds in water body.

Manure Basics
What is Manure? Urine, feces
Waste feed
Parlor water
Gray water (sinks, etc)
![Page 16: Manure 101: Nutrient Management and the Dairy Industry. Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program University of Wisconsin -](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649c865503460f9493dc12/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Manure Basics
How Much Manure Does a cow produce in a day? A week? A Month? A Year?

How Much Manure?
Typical Dairy Cow:148 lbs/day (18 gal)1036 lbs/week (124 gal)4440 lbs/month (531 gal)54020 lbs/year (6460 gal)
Does not include youngstock, other wastes
![Page 19: Manure 101: Nutrient Management and the Dairy Industry. Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program University of Wisconsin -](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649c865503460f9493dc12/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Rule of Thumb #1
One cow plus replacement plus wastewater = 10,000 gal/year
![Page 20: Manure 101: Nutrient Management and the Dairy Industry. Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program University of Wisconsin -](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649c865503460f9493dc12/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
What is in manure?
NutrientsNitrogen, Phosphorus, PotassiumMicro nutrients (Sulfur, Boron, etc)
Whatever the cow eats that does not become milk or meat becomes manure.
If it’s in the feed, it’s in the manure.
![Page 21: Manure 101: Nutrient Management and the Dairy Industry. Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program University of Wisconsin -](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649c865503460f9493dc12/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Dairy Diet and Runoff Manure from 2 rations applied 1.28 and 0.48% P (rec is 0.34-0.38)
Runoff was 4x higher for high P diet Same lbs P applied
Runoff was 10x higher when manure rates were the same.
Ebeling et al, 2001
![Page 22: Manure 101: Nutrient Management and the Dairy Industry. Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program University of Wisconsin -](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649c865503460f9493dc12/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Dairy Diet Impacts Ave P in dairy ration is 0.47%
Gunderson, Keuning & Erb, 2001
NRC Recommendation is 0.32-0.38% P
Higher rates are due to belief that lower P reduces reproductive efficiency.
![Page 23: Manure 101: Nutrient Management and the Dairy Industry. Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program University of Wisconsin -](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649c865503460f9493dc12/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
The Manure Paradox
Crops use N:P:K in a 3:1:2 ratio
Dairy manure is a 1:1:2 ratio (available)
Meet the crop’s N need = excess P
Meet the crop’s P need = buy N fert

Soil Test P Changes Slowly
Soil buffering capacity The amount of fertilizer needed to change
the soil test level by 1 ppm 18 lbs P2O5/acre = 1 ppm change in soil P
Time is required to either lower or raise soil test levels.
![Page 33: Manure 101: Nutrient Management and the Dairy Industry. Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program University of Wisconsin -](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649c865503460f9493dc12/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Soil Test P Changes Slowly- Example -
Soil test P = 75 ppm (EH) Track draw-down of P over a
CCOHHH rotation.
![Page 34: Manure 101: Nutrient Management and the Dairy Industry. Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program University of Wisconsin -](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649c865503460f9493dc12/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Soil Test P Changes Slowly- Example - Soil test P = 75 ppm (EH) Track draw-down of P over a CCOHHH rotation.
Corn @150 bu/a removes 55 lb P2O5/a/yr
Oats @ 100 bu/a removes 25 lb P2O5/a/yr
Alfalfa @ 5 tons/a removes 65 lb P2O5/a/yr
Removal of P2O5 over rotation = 330 lbs P2O5
![Page 35: Manure 101: Nutrient Management and the Dairy Industry. Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program University of Wisconsin -](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649c865503460f9493dc12/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Soil Test P Changes Slowly- Example - Soil test P = 75 ppm (EH) Track drawdown of P over a CCOHHH rotation. Removal of P2O5 over rotation = 330 lbs P2O5
Change in soil test P = 330 lb P2O5/18 = 18 ppm P
![Page 36: Manure 101: Nutrient Management and the Dairy Industry. Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program Kevin Erb UW-Extension NPM Program University of Wisconsin -](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649c865503460f9493dc12/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Soil Test P Changes Slowly- Example - Soil test P = 75 ppm (EH) Track drawdown of P over a CCOHHH rotation. Removal of P2O5 over rotation = 330 lbs P2O5
Change in soil test P = 330 lb P2O5/18 = 18 ppm P
Soil test P = 57 ppm (EH) after the 6-year rotation.
(75 ppm P - 18 ppm P = 57 ppm P)

Challenges of the Future:
Dairy Trends. Management: More cows, fewer farms. Realization by farmers that manure
management requires a cash investment. Manure’s Internet IPO: Lots of ideas now,
lots of broken ideas coming in a few years. Easiest to use / most farm-profitable techniques will remain.

Opportunities of the Future:
Every farm will have a nutrient management plan. Nitrogen – Phosphorus Pendulum Affiliated and independent consultants Site-specific research
Between 1992 and 2001, UWGB was the lead institution for mass balance research.
