The objective of this study was to determine ammonia emission during composting of swine manure from a low protein diet. Feces and urine of pigs fed CP 14.5% (standard) or 11.5% (low protein) diet were mixed. The percentage of urine content was 20 or 30% in each of the feces. A water adjustment for each feces was made with 55% using perlite. The composting materials were aerated after being filled in a laboratory-scale composting system. The dry matter and organic matter degradation rates were equal. Decreasing dietary CP reduced maximum concentration and amount of ammonia emission during composting to 48.8% and 43.0%. However, a higher urine addition increased ammonia emission.
