What is More than Manure?
More than Manure (MTM), from Verdesian Life Sciences, is
a product that manages nitrogen loss in the lagoon or pit and
in the field. It also keeps phosphorous from fixating in the
soil by protecting it in plant available form. Specifically
designed for manure, it’s based off the successful polymers
found in AVAIL and Nutrisphere-N. MTM is non-toxic to
animals and is safe for the environment.
MTM makes agronomic sense. Keeping more nutrients
from manure available to the plants for a longer period of
time will allow more to be taken up by the plant. More
nutrient uptake always equates to healthier, more
vigorous, plants and higher yield potential. MTM also has proven to have a
long list of side benefits leading to better confinement air conditions, more consistent
manure, and less flies.
“I am continually impressed with the benefits MTM brings in an incredibly easy treatment. Our customers keep using MTM year after year, and the results speak for themselves.” - Mitch Bambauer

“We used MTM on part of the field where our dairy lagoon was pumped before corn planting in the spring. Where we treated with MTM our plants were more vigorous, taller, greener, and produced 2.5 tons per acre more silage compared to our traditional manure area without MTM.” Dale Berning - Anna, OH
MTM Works!
The rate is simple, 18 oz. per acre. With liquid manure,
dump into the pit or lagoon before agitating. With dry
manure, spray MTM over the top after application
with at least 15 gallons of carrier.
How Do I Apply MTM?
Research has shown that adding MTM to
your manure fertilizer allows for greater
plant productivity, better overall crop
performance and ultimately, increased
yield potential.
MTM helps to keep nutrients in plant
available forms, instead of getting
converted to forms susceptible to loss
or fixated in the soil.
Phosphorous—MTM helps to keep the
phosphorous in the BrayP1 form, most
available to the plant. It does not keep it in
solution with a chance for runoff, but it
does keep the phosphorous from fixating and becoming unavailable to the plant. Keeping the
phosphorous in the plant available form ensures the plant takes up more P, leaving less in the
soil for potential runoff.
Nitrogen—MTM helps to keep the nitrogen in manures in the ammonium form, stable and
less likely to be lost. More nitrogen into the plant equals larger, healthier plants and more
yield potential, pulling more nutrients from the soil leaves less nitrogen available to be lost to
environmental conditions.

Ammonia Test Triple K Farms—Lewistown, OH
“Our manure treated with MTM is the most consistent we have ever pumped. It’s the same color and consistency from start to finish, allowing us to applicate evenly over the whole field. MTM reduces the foam, and breaks up our solids, for better manure quality.”
Matt Adams - Berne, IN
“The first time we treated with MTM, we had a drastic reduction in ammonia levels immediately. Our pigs no longer raised their heads for fresh air from overhead tunnel vents because of low quality air. It is good for the pigs, and good for the people working in the barns.” Mike Whitney - St. Marys, OH

Bambauer Partners for Development Research
Bambauer Fertilizer & Seed, Inc. has invested the time and resources
in the research and development of MTM in Ohio. We teamed up
with Specialty Fertilizer Products during the development of MTM for
testing not only the agronomic benefits, but the side benefits of MTM
as well. Our research included ammonia studies in several types of
manure, studies for the reduction of solids, crust reduction, along with
field trials for yield benefits. We have knowledge of the correct rates
and treatment procedures to ensure MTM does the best job for the
objective you have for it.
In addition, we have been testing the polymers that make MTM
(Nutrisphere-N and AVAIL) since 2007. We know how they work,
where they work the best, and when they need to be applied.
Work with us to get the most from your manure nutrients!
