Summary:
Earthen Manure Storages offer an economical viable means of storing manure as compare to concrete or steel tanks. Ground water contamination is a concern if improper soil materials are used or improper construction techniques are used. Previous research done in Quebec has shown that liquid manure can cause clogging and great reduction in seepage rates. We conducted a laboratory and field study to confirm these findings for Saskatchewan soil materials and conditions.
