hello
I have fresh pig manure from our pigs and I don't know when it is safe to use it in the veg plot
how should I store pig manure I am thinking of buying a large compost bin and storing the manure in it .or if I add it to the the compost bin with kitchen waste and garden waste with paper when would it be safe to use the compost.is 6 months long enough to wait before I can use the manure on the garden soil.

regards
nemo

Hi Nemo,
I do not know the ruling in ROI but here in UK swill feeding is a thing of the past. Swill feeding produce manure that was very similar to human manure and needed a couple of years rotting before it was really safe to use on the garden. Now the pigs have a vegetarian diet although a strong manure is still produced but it is safe to use after about a year.
Once tempered pig manure will give you excellent results.
