Abstract

The present invention encompasses a method for reducing offensive odors in poultry houses comprising adding at least 10 pounds of composted cow manure per ton of poultry manure. The method of the present invention substantially reduces offensive odor in poultry houses especially ammonia odor and thereby provides a healthier environment for poultry and poultry workers. Since the ammonia loss to the environment is reduced, the nitrogen is retained in the poultry manure providing a product with higher nitrogen content.
