These systems, particularly if they are incorporated into the barn construction, may Pose a serious hazard because of gases produced. Decomposing animal manure gives off a variety of gases including hydrogen sulphide, carbon dioxide and methane. Hydrogen sulphide is the most dangerous, classified as a toxic chemical, in high concentrations it will lead to, almost instantaneous poisoning and death. Hydrogen sulphide is heavier than air and the gas,has a tendency to settle on the surface of the manure. Over a period of time, the undisturbed gas, along with a rising level of liquid manure in the storage system, may force the gas above the floor level. When this happens animals are usually doomed. The Farm Association notes that the greatest danger of exposure to hydrogen sulphide exists during agitation and pump- ing. Clean-out during the fall months after several months of warm temperature storage, accelerates gas production, or clean-out after a prolonged period of time increases the potential danger. During agitation. hydrogen sulphide is released from the manure in the Same manner as carbon dioxide is discharged after shaking a carbonated soft drink. When taken into the lungs. the gas goes into the blood and attacks the nervous system: In large amounts, it paralyzes. Death can result from failure or respiration and consequent asphyxia. The Farm Association warns that a person who inhales a large concentration of hydrogen sulphide drops dead as if hit by a bullet. The Association caution's farmers to make sure all fans are working properly and to stay out of the barn while flushing gutters. A person overcome by this gas should be immediately removed from the contami- nated area and given artificial respiration. Exposure to lesser concentrations may result in nausea: stomach distress. belch- ing, coughing and eye irritation. SILAGE GAS WARNING The Farm Association has conic up against increased silage gas problems throughout the province in recent years. Technological advances in agriculture have accelerated the silage gas problem. Nitric oxide is produced as a by-product by the fermentation process which takes place in the silo almost immediately after filling. Nitric .oxide is toxic, however it readily combines with the free oxygen in the atmosphere to form toxic nitrogen dioxide, or silage gas. Silage gas may be visible as a yellow - brownish gas with an odour similar to laundry bleach. It is more than SO per cent heavier than air and will settle on the surface Of the silage. if an escape route is provided, sueh as an open silo door, the gas will flow down the silo chute to the base of the silo. If unobstructed, it often will settle in silo feed rooms and can invade barn areas. The Farm Safety Association said that the presence of the gas will be recognized by a burning sensation in the nose, thrdat and chest. When inhaled, the gas reacts with ater and salts in the respiratory tract to form acids. causing irritation and chemical pneumonia. Exposure to heavy concentra- tions can result in death within seconds. Lesser concentrations or exposure may result in extensive lung damage and death may follow hours later due to pneumonia. Nitrogen dioxide,gas can form within hours °flitting the silo and may last for two to three weeks, The Association advises farmers to stay clear of the silo for three weeks after filling. If it is necessary to enter a silo 'during this period, an approved self-contained breathing apparatus should be worn. As well, the silo should be ventilated for at least 20 minutes prior to entry. In Huron County. the local Safety Association is hoping to teach farmers about the dangers of manure and silage gas before further tragedies occur. "We consider this to be our most important project since our inception in 1a-3." Mr. Young explained. DANGEROUS GAS—Huron Junior Farmer Bryan Williams posted the first of 600 dangerous gas sign warnings that will be distributed by the Junior Farmer group throughout the county. The group is helping the Huron Horne and Farm Safety Association in their campaign, warning farmers about the deadly threat of manure and silage gases. The project got underway last week.
