Constructing a Horse Carcass Compost Pile

By letter2self on August 28, 2024



Horse carcass composting can serve as a feasible alternative to rendering, burial, and cremation when managing mortalities on horse farms. In this video, we demonstrate how to properly construct a horse carcass compost pile. This video is the first of a four part series on composting horse carcasses. For more information on horse carcass composting visit: https://z.umn.edu/horsecarcasscomposting

Funding for this project was provided by the Rapid Agricultural Response Fund, established by the Minnesota Legislature and administered by the University of Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station.

Special thank you to the horse owners who graciously provided their horses to further education and research on horse carcass composting.

The horses used in this video were euthanized for untreatable medical conditions.
