October 20, 2020

A truck-based system with vacuum/pressure tank was developed to apply swine manure to research and demonstration plots throughout Saskatchewan. It can travel long distances, use a high or low disturbance injection to apply swine manure and be able to pump manure from swine directly from earthern manure storage to the truck. All swine manure plot research in Saskatchewan conducted by PAMI is now using this injector truck.
