Did you know...?
Did you know that when manure is not managed properly, its contaminants can make their way into the water and cause problems?
e-Tip of the Week Planning suggestions for preventing water contamination, being a good neighbor, and having healthy, happy horses:
  1. Place manure storage at least 150 feet away from water sources, including wetlands, streams, creeks, ponds, lakes, and ditches.
  2. Remove or utilize a manure storage pile at least once a year.
  3. Keep your pile small and camouflage it by surrounding it with nontoxic shrubs, flowers, or by building a storage container.
  4. Keep manure away from where horses live.

For more information on how to best manage your horse's manure, click here to access the One Horse or One Hundred bulletin series from Michigan State University Extension.
