    In this video I am out in the field with a farm as they are loading and spreading chicken litter (manure) on a harvested field. This chicken litter is spread on the field and will be used as an organic fertilizer for the next season and maybe other seasons nutrient needs. Chicken litter is a good source of Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium.
    The are loading the litter spreaders with a Deere 644K wheel loader and pulling the spreaders with John Deere 8310R tractors.

    I’ve never recognized chicken litter before. It’s more different than manure and that’s what my fields need for their fertilization.

    That farmer must have a huge chicken operation to generate that much poo. Always great content Mike.

    When we were teenagers, my brother and I had an old car we resurrected from the junk yard. We laughed and laughed as we burned out on top of the chicken litter pile. What a combination of odors. 😂😂

    The green home built is doing a better job. I’ve spread thousands of tons of litter. Efficiency is dependent on loading time. They need to park spreader closer to the pile

      No I don't other than them telling me they built it themselves. Maybe one of the guys from this farm will read this and comment.
