Livestock producers can prepare a Manure Management Plan themselves or with the assistance of a qualified Manure Management Planner. Manure Management Planners that prepare plans required by the government of Manitoba must have successfully completed the Manure Management Planner Course and be members in good standing of the Agrologists Manitoba (Manitoba Institute of Agrologists (MIA)) or Certified Crop Advisors.
