Summary: "Careful management of animal manure is crucial for environmentally sound and sustainable agriculture. The majority of meat, milk and eggs consumed in the United States are produced in concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFO). Manure accumulation in and around CAFO may lead to contamination of air, soil and water if improperly managed. To date, no extensive reference exists on potential environmental effects of livestock manure. The goal of this proposed monograph is to address the environmental concerns while looking for beneficial utilization. Topics covered in the book include characteristics of different types of animal manure and wastes; emissions of greenhouse gases, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide and volatile compounds; transport of nutrients and other contaminants from livestock housing and field-applied manure. Content will also include timely information on potential fate and transport of pharmaceutical residues, microbial pathogens and antibiotic resistance from manure. In addition, beneficial utilization practices will be reviewed as the positive part of better manure management. The overall objective is the production of a timely, comprehensive reference that is applicable and useful for the scientific community, regulatory agencies, environmental advocacy groups, and livestock managers. The majority of the content will be derived from peer-reviewed scientific publication; however, the editors feel that there is also value in information garnered from the popular press and non-traditional sources. Ideally, this will result in the publication of a highly accessible, relatively informal, and reader-friendly text for use by anyone interested in optimal management of manure for both environmental quality and soil fertility"-- Provided by publisher.
