What’s Hiding in Your Pit Could Be Paying Off
Manure is packed with nutrients, but without proper treatment, some of its value is compromised. Solids settle at the bottom, nitrogen escapes into the air and corrosive gases impact air quality and worker safety.
Crusted pits are harder to manage and valuable fertility remains trapped in the sludge. That’s where Pit Digester Plus comes in.
Pit Digester Plus contains a broad spectrum of micro-organims that catalyze decomposition of manure.
Reduce Manure Crust, Gas Buildup and Nitrogen Loss
Pit Digester Plus uses a blend of concentrated bacteria and fungi to liquefy solids and reduce gas emissions in livestock manure. It promotes microbial fermentation, boosting nitrogen retention and nutrient content while reducing crusting and odors.
Pit Digester Plus breaks down manure solids, reduces gas emissions and releases nitrogen in a water-soluble form—turning waste into a more uniform, pumpable, nutrient-rich slurry. The result is easier pit management, improved air quality and more fertility returned to your soil where it boosts crop yields.
- What it targets

How Pit Digester Plus Works
Discuss your application- Breaks down solids, fiber and crusts using powerful microbes
- Inhibits ammonia, hydrogen sulfide and VFA's to improve air quality for livestock and employees
- Traps nitrogen in ammonium form to reduce volatilization and nitrogen loss
- Increases Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen (TKN), phosphorus and potassium levels
- Reduces corrosive gases and odors in pits and buildings
- Improves pumpability and creates a more uniform, nutrient-rich slurry
- A University of Nebraska at Lincoln study showed that Pit Digester Plus significantly increased suspended solids, nitrogen, phosphorus and micro-nutrients.
Proven To Boost Nutrient Availability
Trials show that Pit Digester Plus increases Total Nitrogen and other key nutrients in manure while, lowering moisture content and improving consistency.
This means you can capture more value from every gallon of manure, improving crop fertility and maximizing return on your livestock operation.

More about Pit Digester Plus, application and field performance.
Ask our teamHow is Pit Digester Plus applied?
Pit Digester Plus comes in 2.5-gallon jugs or 275-gallon totes. Just pour it into your deep pit or manure storage basin. It works with the tools you already use—no special equipment needed.
How quickly will I see results?
Producers often notice reduced crusting, easier agitation and better air quality within weeks. Nutrient improvements can be confirmed through manure testing.
Does Pit Digester Plus work on both hog and cattle manure?
Yes. Pit Digester Plus is effective in all hog, dairy and cattle confinement systems, improving manure consistency and reducing odor across species.
Can I use Pit Digester Plus with other manure treatments?
Pit Digester Plus can be used alongside other microbial or enzymatic products, but it often replaces the need for multiple treatments due to its broad-spectrum activity.
Keep Nutrients Where They Belong. In Your Soil.
Pit Digester Plus helps liquefy manure, retain nutrients and reduce harmful gas emissions, so more of your manure ends up where it belongs: in the soil.
