Farmers Willingness to Substitute Poultry Litter for Commercial Fertilizer

Dr. Doug Parker is the PI. In an attempt to assess the willingness of farmers to substitute poultry litter for commercial fertilizer, a survey of growers in 4 counties on the Shore was done. The results of this survey show that use rates are already high and that farmers are interested in using poultry litter if it is easily available. The results of this survey can be found in this PDF file, or on my website.
