PLT controls ammonia and lowers pH better than the competition \u2013 and keeps them lower for
\nlonger.<\/p>\n

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

At a fuel price of roughly $2 a gallon, PLT would save growers $600 – $1,200 per flock.<\/h4>\n

Every 100 lbs. of applied PLT generates 55 lbs. of ammonium sulfate fertilizer.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”496″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_section][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_custom_heading text=”Similar Does Not Mean the Same” font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:center” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_empty_space height=”16px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

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\u00a0 environmentally-friendly ammonia control.<\/p>\n
