Manure Management
Spoon feed liquid manure through your drip system at exactly the right time in the growing season—without compacting your soil
Traditional methods of manure application leave your soil compacted, negatively affecting your yields.
With a NutraDrip subsurface irrigation system, you can deliver manure directly to the crop’s root zone without worrying about compaction.
"Last year we had our best year ever; we had just about 300 bushels of corn."

Apply manure through your SDI system to maximize your investment
In addition to irrigation, a subsurface drip irrigation system also helps you leverage the benefits of your largest on-farm nutrient, manure.
Our Manure Management process helps break down the solids, filter out the liquid, and output the perfect blend of effluent and freshwater to give your crops a customized fertigation treatment at any point in the growing season.
- Increase crop uniformity: Use water and nutrients more effectively for a more uniform crop and higher yields
- Conserve water: NutraDrip customers in Nebraska save over 817 Million gallons of water every year since switching from flood irrigation
- Keep water bodies safe: Avoid polluting water supplies caused by runoff by delivering manure directly to the crop's root zone
- Reduce your reliance on synthetic fertilizers: Put your manure to work by utilizing the already-available organic nutrients on your farm
A simple process to transform manure into liquid gold
Repurpose manure waste and reclaim nutrients for in-season application
Separation
Manure is sent through a screw press and microfilter to separate the liquid from the solids.
Blending
After separation, the liquid is blended with water and applied via drip lines to your field, allowing the nutrients already found on your farm to nourish your crops.
In-season application
Conserve water, energy, and nutrients by applying the right mix at the optimal point in the growing season—without the smell or compaction.
Pit aeration
Fight formation of odor-producing bacteria while effectively breaking down organic material.
