Available Nutrients and Value
for Manure from Various Livestock Types
PDF version
(354KB)
The nutrients from manure have a nutrient and economic value. The
tables that follow give an indication of the available nitrogen, phosphorus
and potassium from various livestock types. The information is based
on the most current databank of nutrients and makes a few assumptions.
All information in the tables is presented in an “as-is basis,”
— in other words, the nutrients as applied at the listed dry
matter content.
The useable nitrogen is the amount of nitrogen available in the year
of application, assuming the manure is spring applied and incorporated
within 24 hr. A simplified, quick-estimate method for calculating
nitrogen available for fall applications would be:
Metric: Multiply half the % total nitrogen by 10
to calculate kg/1,000 L (same as kg/m3) or kg/tonne. The
actual value will vary (especially for liquid manure) with late summer
application (lower availability) versus late fall application (higher
availability). The amount of phosphorus and potash does not vary with
season of application. In the year of application, 40% of the phosphorus
in manure is available; another 40% is available in subsequent years.
Imperial: Multiply half the % total nitrogen by
100 for liquid manure or 20 for solid manure. The actual value will
vary (especially for liquid manure) with late summer application (lower
availability) versus late fall application (higher availability).
The amount of phosphorus and potash does not vary with season of application.
In the year of application, 40% of the phosphorus in manure is available;
another 40% is available in subsequent years.
The actual immediate nutrient value for crop production will be less
than what is reflected in the tables if the nutrients being applied
are not required for the production of the crop. An example of this
would be the nitrogen from manure applied to a legume crop, or the
phosphorus and/or potassium applied to a field with a soil test higher
than 60 mg/L (ppm) or 250 mg/L (ppm) for P and K, respectively.
Some nitrogen is available in subsequent years; the amount is higher
for solid manure than for liquid manure. The value of that nitrogen
for the 3 years is reflected in the column that reads “Year
2–4 value,” which also reflects the remaining half of the
total available phosphorus value.
The values in these tables were compiled by OMAFRA, with aggregate
sample data provided by A&L Labs, Agri-Food Labs, Stratford Agri-Analysis
and the University of Guelph Analytical Lab, and summarize the information
found in the NMAN software.

1Useable N = amount of Nitrogen
available in the year of application assuming spring application incorporated
within 24 hr. A simplified useable N for fall-applied manure =
[(% total N x 0.5) x 10] for liquid manure.
2 Value of manure is based on purchase price of an equivalent
amount of mineral fertilizer:(N – P205
– K20 = 1.43 – 2.20 – 1.10 $/kg). The
actual immediate value for crop production will be less if all the
nutrients applied are not required for growing the crop.
The manure value is based on the purchase price of an equivalent
amount of mineral fertilizer (Jun 08). The micronutrient and organic
matter values are not reflected in these tables.

1Useable N = amount of nitrogen available in the year
of application assuming spring application incorporated within 24
hr. A simplified useable N for fall-applied
manure = [(% total N x 0.5) x 100] for liquid manure.
2Value of manure is based on purchase price of an equivalent
amount of mineral fertilizer: (N – P205
– K20 = 0.65 – 1.00 – 0.50 $/lb). The
actual immediate value for crop production will be less if all the
nutrients applied are not required for growing the crop.
The manure value is based on the purchase price of an equivalent
amount of mineral fertilizer (Jun 2008). The micronutrient and
organic matter values are not reflected inthese tables.

1Useable N = amount of nitrogen available in the year
of application assuming spring application incorporated within 24
hr. A simplified useable N for fall-applied
manure = [(% total N x 0.5) x 10] for solid manure.
2Value of manure is based on purchase price of an equivalent
amount of mineral fertilizer: (N – P205
– K20 = 1.43 – 2.20 – 1.10 $/kg). The
actual immediate value for crop production will be less if all the
nutrients applied are not required for growing the crop.
The manure value is based on the purchase price of an equivalent
amount of mineral fertilizer (Jun 08). The micronutrient and organic
matter values are not reflected in these tables.

organic matter values are not reflected in these tables.

1Useable N = amount of nitrogen available in the year
of application, assuming spring application incorporated within
24 hr. A simplified useable N for fall-applied
manure = [(% total N x 0.5) x 10] for solid manure.
2Represents half the total phosphorus that is immediately
available. The other half is available within a year of application.
3Value of manure is based on purchase price of an equivalent
amount of mineral fertilizer:
(N – P205 – K20 = 1.43
– 2.20 – 1.10 $/kg). The actual immediate value for crop
production will be less if all the nutrients applied are not required
for growing the crop.
The manure value is based on the purchase price of an equivalent
amount of mineral fertilizer (Jun 08). The micronutrient and organic
matter values are not reflected in these tables.

1Useable N = amount of nitrogen available in the year
of application, assuming spring application incorporated within 24
hr. A simplified useable N for fall-applied
manure = [(% total N x 0.5) x 20] for solid manure.
2Represents half the total phosphorus that is immediately
available. The other half is available within a year of application.
3Value of manure is based on purchase price of an equivalent
amount of mineral fertilizer:
(N – P205 – K20 = 0.65
– 1.00 – 0.50 $/lb). The actual immediate value for crop
production will be less if all the nutrients applied are not required
for growing the crop.
The manure value is based on the purchase price of an equivalent
amount of mineral fertilizer (Jun 2008). The micronutrient and organic
matter values are not reflected in these tables.
