In Manitoba, the application of livestock manure to land must be as a fertilizer for crop production. Many livestock operations must submit an annual Manure Management Plan (MMP) to Manitoba Conservation and Water Stewardship. Livestock producers can prepare a Manure Management Plan themselves or with the assistance of a qualified Manure Management Planner
Would you like to become a qualified Manure Management Planner?
Manure Management Planners that prepare plans required by Manitoba Conservation and Water Stewardship must have successfully completed the Manure Management Planner Course and be members in good standing of the Manitoba Institute of Agrologists (MIA) or Certified Crop Advisors.
Assiniboine Community College is offering an approved training course for Manure Management Planners that was developed in partnership with Manitoba Conservation and Water Stewardship, Manitoba Agriculture, Food and Rural Development and the Manitoba Institute of Agrologists. It consists of a home study manual, a two-day seminar, a manure management planning assignment and a closed-book, multiple-choice exam.
