ANALYSIS To analyze the amount nitrogen from the on-site manure the subject property cropland can assimilate, samples were obtained from goat and chicken manures. There are no cattle presently on the subject property, therefore manure samples could not be obtained. Book values were used. Sheep and goats are similar in manure nitrogen content and production.
