Odor Control
Data Is Given
There is no device or method
now available, or none on the
horizon, that will remedy layer
house odors at the practical cost
cf a cent per dozen eggs, an ag
ricultural engineer, said recent
ly
Dr D C Ludington, an associ
ate Cornell Umveisity piofessor,
spoke to an audience of some
200 persons at the 1968 Poul
ttymen’s Get-Together, held in
Ithaca, NY
Dr Ludington said good man
agement is a necessity for odor
control and that the most effect
ive method is house cleaning
eiery day. There is a wide vaii
ation in odor levels, depending
upon management, he noted
Although researchers are
working across the nation on the
problem, there is no effective
and inexpensive way to prevent
odois in stored manuie, he as
set ted The odors are constantly
building, seething within the
buildup of stored manure. When
cleaning day comes they burst
into the atmosphere
Dr Ludington called for a
more ob3ective approach to pol
lution problems. Psychological
ly. people can enlaige upon
odors if they think they come
fiom manure the “smell” is
worse
What’s needed is a better def
inition of “odor” so that all seg
ments of the community can un
derstand what each is talking
about This includes poultry peo
ple, allied industries and air pol
lution control agents There also
is a need for better communica
tions People should learn what
pollution control legislation is
already on the books.
