Description: The concentration of livestock operations in Quebec, as well as their proximity to most river systems, has brought about water quality problems. Substantial subsidies are being disbursed to correct manure storage practices, however, environmental authori ties have been alarmed at the number of dairy cattle producers taking advantage of this financial help to change over their handling system from a solid to a liquid type. A survey was, therefore, conducted among dairy producers of the Montreal area to identify improve ments which could make solid systems more attractive. Two main points came out of this survey: the dairy farmer considers that the practicality of a handling system is more important than its cost, the handling of seepage is the main problem associated with solid sys tems.
