Aspects of a complete management system are discussed for livestock production, starting with having enough land to produce feedstuffs for the animals and ending the production process with the return of the nutrients in the manure to the land for utilization. Informations are given on proper manure management plan and also on ways to operate the system to ensure the success of the livestock production facilities operations while minimizing environmental impacts. A manure management worksheet is also provided to determine annual manure application rates and land requirement for the application of the annual manure production from different livestock facilities.
