In this paper, we aimed to achieve the management of the manure taken from five localities near the county of Iași, Romania. For this, two manure storage platforms with an area of 500 square metres will be built for its temporary storage. The platforms will serve the small farmers in this area, consisting of the platform itself and a collection basin located next to the platform, where the water from precipitation, animal urine and water for sanitising the platform reaches. Thus, this paper describes the constructive elements of the platforms, calculates the volumes of water collected from its surface and sizes the collection basin. The collection basin will have a volume of 120 m3 and has been sized to ensure a storage capacity for a period of 30 days of precipitation and all liquid fractions resulting from the composting process.
