Reviews and recommendations

This information was not provided on the original proposals, but was generated during the review process.

Recommendation:
Not Innovative
Date:
Dec 15, 2000

Comment:

This proposal boils down to manufacturing anaerobic composting units using livestock manure, and then "demonstrating the use" of those nutrients produced for at least one fish species. The proposal does not communicate how composting manure would produce nutrient supplements. Reviewers were unconvinced of the feasibility and priority of this effort.
