Farmers and chicken processing facilities are required by law to utilize best management practices approved by the state. Hence you have dates when manure can be set out in open fields. All the practices that the farmers have to do because of regulations placed by the state requires farming activities to minimize all impacts(nutrient management plans) Just as the processing facilities have to treat the waste water prior to leaving the facility. I hope people realize that at the state level regulations for the chicken processing industry or farming activities only creates more need for these companies to move. I am no expert in business modeling but at some point the regulations have a cost and Maryland isn’t growing like Delaware (at least not on the eastern shore).

Yes I agree excess poultry manure is an issue that needs to be addressed. I can not speak for other farmers or for the intergrators(Perdue, Mountaire, ect) but farmers in general take pride in the land and animals we grow.

I had a flight taking Frank Purdue from Salisbury to some location in Massachusetts and return. All went well on the flight up there and Purdue and his associates left me at the airport and did not say when they would return. I sat around all day and late into the evening having lunch and dinner from a snack vending machine. They returned around 9:00 pm and boarded the aircraft. As luck would have it, I could not get my #2 engine started. Purdue became very angry and called a local charter service who found a pilot to take the group back to Salisbury. The pilot preflighted the new charter and after everyone was on board taxied past me headed for the active runway. As they approached my aircraft, on one last attempt, my engine started and I rolled out directly behind them, and ended up following them back to Salisbury. I’ll never forget the treatment and attitude that Purdue demonstrated that eveningAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586983.post-67602885174152971452019-12-06T06:34:24.556-05:002019-12-06T06:34:24.556-05:00just use a cannon and shot it into the air like th...just use a cannon and shot it into the air like they do in NC with all the hog sh!t.
