PLT traps ammonia in litter<\/h2>\n

When combined, the value of these benefits can be clearly seen in a grower\u2019s settlement check.<\/p>\n

PLT stops ammonia which damages birds’ eyes, can cause blindness which increases cull rate and harms cilia in the respiratory tract. Learn more<\/a><\/p>\n

PLT has been proven to lower fuel costs by allowing houses to be ventilated for relative humidity, not ammonia. Learn more<\/a><\/p>\n

Think Ammonia Isn\u2019t a Problem in Your Poultry Houses?<\/h2>\n

When you\u2019re exposed to something all the time, it\u2019s easy to become desensitized to it. That\u2019s the case with ammonia and poultry producers. While ammonia during winter months is expected to be a challenge (though inconsistent testing might not reveal the full challenge), a common misconception is that ammonia isn\u2019t a problem in summer because of increased ventilation.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”198″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”201″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Summer air quality surveys conducted at 300+ houses showed that only 37% had ammonia levels 25 PPM or less. Fifty three percent of houses were above 50 PPM, none of which had been treated with a litter amendment.<\/p>\n

And remember, as litter moisture increases (think evaporative cooling) so does ammonia volatility\u2014and that impact is magnified as temperatures rise (Miles et al).[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row disable_element=”yes”][vc_column]
