For more: http://www.extension.org/67634 The Beef Feed Nutrient Management Planning Economics (BFNMP$) computer program can assist producers in understanding the impacts manure handling changes could have on their operation.  It calculates manure management economics based on animal nutrient intake, manure nutrient availability, land requirements for spreading, operating costs, and fertilizer value.  These values can be altered to fit individual operations.  The objective of this analysis was to use the BFNMP$ software tool to evaluate the effect of distillers grains inclusion, N volatilization, and manure application rate on feedlot nutrient management plans.
