In Spain, swine census grew 58% between 1990 and 2009, being second-ranked within the EU-27, after Germany. This situation has led to major benefits for the efficiency in the production process but can also have drawbacks, as potential environmental impact of areas with high animal density. Management factors related with animal feeding (chemical composition, number of feeding phases, feeder type), drinker type and length of slurry pit storage affect pig excreta composition. In addition, the mitigation of gas pollutants (ammonia and greenhouse gases as methane and nitrous oxide) derived from pig facilities (animal pens and pits below them) a...
