Poultry Litter

Build Better Soil from the Ground Up 

Poultry litter is more than fertilizer — it’s a long-term investment in soil health, crop performance, and sustainability.

Why Poultry Litter?

Rising fertilizer costs and declining soil health have many growers searching for better options. Poultry litter delivers nutrients and organic matter in one application — improving soil today while building resilience for tomorrow.

  • Lower cost per acre compared to commercial fertilizer

  • Improves soil health year after year

  • Supports sustainable nutrient management 

  • Poven results across Midwest cropping systems

Get More Value Per Acre

Organic Matter from poultry litter improves soil health

Organic Matter

Poultry litter adds organic matter that improves soil structure, reduces compaction, and increases nutrient-holding capacity — benefits you won’t get from synthetic fertilizer alone.

Carbon from poultry litter supports soil biology

Carbon that Supports Soil Biology

The carbon in poultry litter fuels beneficial soil microbes, helping create a more active and resilient soil ecosystem that naturally cycles nutrients.

Variable Rate Application ensures poultry litter is applied at the right rate, in the right place

VRT Application

Precision placement ensures poultry litter is applied at the right rate, in the right place — improving efficiency, protecting soil and water, and delivering consistent results across the field.

Poultry litter provides valuable micronutrients that support plant health and yield potential.

Micronutrients

In addition to nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (NPK), poultry litter provides valuable micronutrients that support plant health and yield potential.

Poultry litter improves soil structure, increasing yeilds

Improved Soil Structure

Healthier aggregation means less crusting, better aeration, and improved root penetration — setting crops up for stronger growth.

Strong root development improves soil structure and biological activity allow roots to grow deeper and stronger

Strong Root Development

Improved soil structure and biological activity allow roots to grow deeper and stronger, accessing more nutrients and moisture throughout the season.

Soils with higher organic matter absorb water more efficiently

Better Water Infiltration

Soils with higher organic matter absorb water more efficiently, reducing runoff while holding moisture during dry periods.
