Summary:

Odor, ammonia (NH3) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) concentrations and emission rates were measured in two small rooms of finishing pigs with different manure removal strategies. The strategies included daily flush, and static pits with 7-, 14-, and 42-d storage times with and without pit recharge. Tests were conducted with three successive groups of 25 pigs per room. Pigs were fed standard corn-soybean diets. Ammonia and H2S concentrations were automatically measured 15 to 24 times per day. Odor samples were collected and evaluated for odor concentration, intensity and hedonic tone by an odor panel, whose performance was verified with a reference odorant. Geometric mean odor emission rates were 19, 33, and 29 OUE s-1 AU-1 (OUE = European odor unit equivalent to 123 A
