The North American Manure Expo was held today in Wayne, Nebraska, marking the first time in Wayne and the first return to Nebraska since 2011. Thousands of farmers, custom applicators, and equipment manufacturers gathered to learn and showcase new precision manure application technologies, aiming to improve application efficiency, reduce nutrient loss, and lower production costs.
The expo featured live liquid manure application demonstrations, with multiple companies showcasing the latest fertilization equipment. Sybren Vellenga, a Dutch native now living in Texas, said the United States provided him with the opportunity to start from scratch. The expo slogan Professionalism in Manure Management reflects the professionalization trend in the livestock waste management industry.
