PLT: THE SAFE, EASY, PROFITABLE CHOICE

Consistently More Effective Ammonia Control and pH Suppresion

PLT controls ammonia and lowers pH better than the competition – and keeps them lower for
longer.

The Safest Choice

When it comes to safety – for birds, workers, and the environment – no other product comes close to PLT.

• Safe to apply ANY TIME (from 3-5 days prior to placement through end of flock)
EPA Safer Choice
• Biodegradable, all natural, and made in the USA

The main ingredient in PLT is also found in countless consumer products.

PLT Lowers Heating Costs

Applying PLT at a sufficient rate to control more ammonia based on litter conditions can help
increase your net profit by lowering winter fuel costs. A study completed in both North and South
U.S. climates compared PLT application rates that were either too low or sufficient for litter
conditions and found that higher rates saved growers $600 – $1,200 per flock.

At a fuel price of roughly $2 a gallon, PLT would save growers $600 – $1,200 per flock.

PLT Increases Value of Litter as Fertilizer

PLT-treated litter retains more plant-available nitrogen, increasing its value as a fertilizer source and decreasing the need for fertilizer production. Every 100 lbs. of applied PLT generates 55 lbs. of ammonium sulfate fertilizer.

Similar Does Not Mean the Same

Competitive litter amendments claim to offer the same benefits and performance as PLT, but in reality, there are significant differences that could affect bird and worker safety, product efficacy, and environmental considerations. Producers who choose PLT understand the value of safe, consistent, and  environmentally-friendly ammonia control.
