A large beef or dairy operation wouldn't bother me as much as this pig farm. We like our back ribs just dandy, I serve up really nice fall-off-the-bone tender ones, but don't want them raised next door. Cow manure tends to be spread on the fields in solid form, mixed with straw, isn't as nasty as the liquid pig manure, which has a higher ammonia level. They spread solid cow manure on the fields behind our subdivision in the spring, and we could only smell it the day they spread and part of the next when they were plowing it under. I don't know, 1800 feeder hogs in an 18,000 sq. ft. barn isn't farming to me...it's a factory.
