<snip>
	For the individual who has developed a grazing system, this manure is
"money in the pot."  A 100 head beef cow herd will produce approximately
1150 tones of manure.  The University of Nebraska has valued each ton,
on a nutrient basis, at $9.57.  The gross value of that manure is a
whopping $11,005.50.

Does the value of manure reflect loss to the atmoshere of 50 % in the form of
gasses.??
