Horse farms

What happens to the manure?

The use of composting systems on horse farms is a practical solution for processing horse manure and other organic material produced on a horse farm. 

What is being composted?

  • A considerable amount of organic material is produced on horse farms, including horse manure, straw, hay and possibly also green cuttings or other garden waste. These materials can be processed in a composting plant.

Why do we compost?

  • Composting on horse farms offers several advantages. One of the main reasons is the efficient disposal and utilization of horse manure and other biowaste. Instead of simply disposing of the manure, it is converted into valuable compost in a composting plant.
  • Composting also makes it possible to reduce odor emissions and control fly populations, as the decomposition of organic material in the composting plant takes place under controlled conditions.
  • In addition, the compost produced can be reused as a high-quality soil conditioner to increase soil fertility, improve soil structure and promote plant growth.

Advantages of horse manure composting

  1. Waste reduction

    By composting organic material, horse farms can significantly reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfill or has to be disposed of elsewhere. This helps to reduce the environmental impact and prolong the life of landfill sites.

  2. Soil improvement

    The compost produced can be used as a high-quality soil conditioner to improve soil health and fertility. The compost provides important nutrients for plant growth and improves soil structure and texture, which is particularly beneficial on horse pastures.

  3. Cost savings

    Composting can help to reduce organic waste disposal costs as less waste needs to be disposed of. At the same time, horse farms can save money by using the compost produced as a free or low-cost alternative to commercial fertilisers and soil conditioners.

  4. Sustainability

    Integrating composting into the waste management of horse farms helps to promote sustainable practices and demonstrates a commitment to environmental protection and resource conservation. This can strengthen the image of the horse farm and generate positive feedback from customers and community members.
