The point of using a product like mine is to BUILD the soil up, rather than to feed the plant. As we all know, too much poultry litter has been applied to too little land, resulting in mineral over-application. This is what I want to correct. Take the abundant, natural fertilizer, process it to make it easy to handle and as environmentally safe as possible and as easy to use/handle as possible and move it OUT OF THE AREA! There are millions of acres of farmland as well as lawns in this country that need the organic fertilizer that can be produced from raw poultry litter. The issue is that raw litter is hard to handle, smelly and potentially unsafe. So the answer to the problem is to process and move the fertilizer outside of the “nutrient dense” areas.

I hope that answered your questions. If you have any other questions or would like to see what the end product actually looks like, see my website at http://www.mightygrow.com.

Why are five to ten people allowed to make a decision as huge and far reaching as this? Allowing CAFOs into Northampton County, when everywhere else they are putting in restrictions to prohibit large factory farms?

It’s mind boggling. We don’t prohibit CAFOs now. We just have strong boundaries in place to protect landowners.

Nothing can be done to stop this. We will have chicken farms, probably in six months time.

What a sad, sad loss. The BOS have no idea of the long term problems they are creating. They will always be remembered for what they have done, and it won’t be fondly.

That is how you solve the problem, by implementing positive methods of handling the waste from these farms. That way you enjoy the increase in economic activity while protecting the environment and the beauty of the countryside.
