Poultry litter can provide a significant and important supply of nutrients for crop production in areas where a supply of litter is available. Arkansas, Missouri and Oklahoma rank among the largest producers of poultry in the U.S.

BBI Spreaders announces that it is working in conjunction with Dr. Dan Pote at the ARS Dale Bumpers Small Farms Research Center in Booneville, AK to develop new patented technology for a machine that injects dry poultry litter and composted cattle manure below the soil surface of pastures and no-till fields.

A machine that can inject dry poultry litter and composted cattle manure below the soil surface in pastures and no-till fields is on order from a research coalition across five Chesapeake Bay states: Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania and New York. There are currently no machines on the market that can do this.
