So now what are the crop farmers going to use for fertilizer? Afterall we keep on hearing how chicken litter is a hot commodity and in such high demand as fertilizer.
All sarcasm aside now. I know there is an overabundance of this stuff no matter what anyone says and no where to put it. I think this is a great idea and have no problem using tax dollars for this.
