Manure Management
Patz liquid manure pumps make manure handling
faster and more profitable for you.
The Model 100 manure pump handies free flowing
manure and slurry with fine cut bedding. Both the
plunger and plunger sleeve can be serviced without
concrete breakup. And a flapper valve at the end of
the 12-inch PVC pipe in the storage facility prevents
manure backup.
The Model 200 compressed air manure mover
handles slurry, and has fewer moving parts a
manually-operated hatch cover and one-way valve at
the bottom of the underground tank. An air com
pressor provides air pressure to agitate manure in
the collection tank and then air pressure moves it to
your storage facility.
Find out how simple and economical controlled
manure management can be. Take a close look at
Patz liquid manure handling systems today.

THIS WELL-BUILT MANURE TANKER SPREADS
AN EXCELLENT PATTERN UN YUUR HELDS
Because this well-built manure tanker from US Farms Systems
of Pennsylvania shoots the discharge slurry up, and baffels the
spread down, you get an even coverage pattern on your fields.
Better than most makes and models, we think.
In addition, the advanced design allows you to do the job with
very few moving parts on the spreader. Gravity settles the slurry
into the fan. The fan blows the slurry over the top of the spreader
in a 6” pipe and out the back. So simple you know the unit will be
easy to maintain.
So let this well-built manure tanker spread an excellent pattern
on your fields today. Write for price and model information to US
Farm Systems of Pennsylvania, 4020 Blue Ball Road, Nottingham,
PA 19362, or phone 301-398-2948.
