Exploring The Benefits Of Baled Poultry Litter

Increased Availability
According to Argo, his business plan includes building 300 of the poultry litter baling machines in a five-year period to make the technology available to a wider geography. Argo notes that if, say, 10 farmers bought a machine as a cooperative, hired a four-man crew to run it and ship the baled litter to the 10 farmers in the co-op, they could pay for their machine and get their litter.
An interesting note for cotton farmers is that a module truck can be used to move seven of the bales at one time, which would increase the working hours on a piece of equipment that typically is idle 90 percent of the year.
In looking at the big picture, baled poultry litter may not fit everyone's operation, but, in this economy, it's always a good thing to have options.
