Abstract: Expansion of the wastes coordinated by the Ozark Poultry Litter Bank is needed. This study examined a method of combining low value poultry wastes to produce compost. Analyses of four compost blends and two hypothetical production systems provide entrepreneurs with the production and financial information to make informed decisions.
