†For days 0-5, the total rainfall and snowfall
recorded as the total for that day. For weeks 2-5 in the table, the rain
and snow recorded as the total for the week. High and low temperatures
are reported daily for days 0-5, and the high and low temperatures are
reported for the entire week for weeks 2-5
‡Three biomass types used for windrow formation
include woodchips, cornstalks, and a combination of half woodchips and
half cornstalks
§Each compost biomass type had a section applied with
microbial digestion stimulating treatment (Treated) and a section that
was not (Untreated)
¶Bolded values indicated temperature readings ≥60°C
which is documented high enough to inactivate ASF with 20minutes of
exposure
