The heavy, cardstock tags have a metal grommet with an elastic string that easily slips onto door handles. Simply write the start date and time, end date and time, and contact information on the tag using a marker or pen. When pumping is in progress, the tags should be visible on all barn entrances as a warning to keep out of the facility.

Manure Application & Transfer Forms

To order free manure application and transfer forms, and tab sets for organizing manure management plans, contact the Minnesota Pork Board at (800) 537-7675. The information that producers enter on the manure application and transfer forms should meet Minnesota Pollution Control Agency record keeping requirements. The forms are designed to provide duplicate copies and are available in pads of 25. To be eligible for a 21-day hydrogen sulfide exemption while agitating and applying manure, the MPCA must have the notification form on file.
