Re: DIG-L: slurry density



We use a density of 960 kg/m^3 for fresh hog manure with 91% water.

Is the density of fresh slurry the same as for that of water, i.e. 1000 kg / m^3, or is
it slightly less?

I have calculated a value of 500 kg /m^3 , taken from cornell composting website, but this seems too low. Would it be sensible to use a value in between these two?
