r <br /> ANALYSIS <br /> To analyze the amount nitrogen from the on-site manure the subject property cropland can <br /> assimilate, samples were obtained from goat and chicken manures. There are no cattle presently <br /> on the subject property,therefore manure samples could not be obtained. Book values were <br /> used. Sheep and goats are similar in manure nitrogen content and production. <br /> TABLE 1 <br /> ANIMAL MANURE NITROGEN FRACTIONS(As Tested) <br /> PRODUCTION <br /> PER YEAR NITRATE ORGANIC AMMONIA TOTAL <br /> (Est.)
