This newsletter presents in short a decision support model, which is one of the results from a 3 year PhD study of Dr. Vu Thi Khanh Van. The PhD thesis was defended successfully in November 2009. Dr. Van has developed a decision support model for planning manure management on pig farms. The focus in this first generation model is nitrogen flow on the pig farms, where the entire manure management chain from feed for grower-finisher pig production to post-manure storage is considered. The model has been used when developing a manure management decision tool, which is presented in this newsletter.
