Poultry manure processing plant planned in California
A poultry manure processing plant is being planned in a 20-acre site, located 20 miles west of Sutter, Calif. The plant will take poultry litter from Foster Farms and other Central Valley operations, reports the Appeal-Democrat, mix it with agricultural minerals, heat it and sell it to farmers for soil amendment or fertilizer.
The Sutter County Planning Commission voted 4-0 on Wednesday to approve the project, with commissioners voicing their support for an agriculture-related business.
