PEGORARO, Vanesa et al. Diagnóstico del manejo de los efluentes porcinos generados en la provincia de Córdoba. RIA. Rev. investig. agropecu. [online]. 2020, vol.46, n.3, pp.362-370. ISSN 1669-2314.

Pig production intensification generates large volume of the slurry that must be managed properly. Their accumulation and uncontrolled applications on the soil can cause negative impacts on the environment. The aims of this article were estimated pig slurry generation in Córdoba Province, Argentina and diagnose farm pig slurry management in Marcos Juarez department. The potential generation of pig slurry in Córdoba Province is 811911 m. year-1, which 2517 tons N year-1, concentrated in the south-southeast departments in Córdoba. The Marcos Juárez department generated 119378 m. year-1 of pig slurry. Of this generated volume, 61% was stored in waterproofed systems, 51% was subjected to treatment systems and 68% was applied to the soil. However, when evaluating the percentage of pig farmers who carried out these practices, it was evident that they were a minority but with a greater number of animals.
