Non-manure waste and agrichemicals

Agricultural businesses create many types of non-manure waste. Non-manure waste and agrichemicals must be handled in accordance with local, state and federal regulations so they don't pollute Wisconsin's natural resources. Working with our partners, the Department of Natural Resources has developed disposal and cleanup methods to help you with these potential contaminants.
