10 Estimated P LB/yr Milking Center Waste Silage Leachate Barnyard Runoff Domestic Waste
11 Concentrated Sources Amounts and concentrations vary daily seasonally from farm to farm They can be Managed When Rain Driven the impact is less diluted not observed
12 Concentrations N P Milking Center 400 ppm 60 ppm Silage Leachate 4, Barnyard 1, Manure 5, Domestic Waste 30 7

17 Resource concern? Volume Concentration Distance Flow path Destination
18 Conclusions Concentrated sources need to be controlled Prevention is key Look for low cost alternatives to treatment
19 Prevention Eliminate Reduce Reuse
20 Wash Water Reduction Eliminate Leaks and Spills Manually rinse or scrape first Reuse gray water Design system for easy cleaning
21 Quantities Range 1-40 gal/cow/day Typical 2-5 gal/cow/day
22 Reduce at the Source Feed Milk First flush Colostrum, treated milk Scrape Manure Parlor and holding area floors Correct Soap Amounts No Precooler Water
