Detailed explanation-1: -Animal manure, such as chicken manure and cow dung, has been used for centuries as a fertilizer for farming. It can improve the soil structure (aggregation) so that the soil holds more nutrients and water, and therefore becomes more fertile.

Detailed explanation-2: -Manure contains nitrogen, phosphorus, and other nutrients that plants need to grow. Farmers can often save money by properly using manure as a fertilizer. Farmers can also sell manure or manure products to gardeners, landscapers, golf courses, and others who use nutrients to grow plants.

Detailed explanation-3: -Manures are obtained from natural sources, whereas fertilisers are synthetically manufactured in the factories. Manures are eco-friendly, whereas fertilisers harm the useful microbes present in the soil and also decrease the soil fertility if used for a longer time.

Detailed explanation-4: -Difference between Manures and Fertilizers Manure is obtained naturally by the decomposition of dead plants and animals. Fertilizers are chemical substances and are not typically natural. It is not very rich in nutrients. It is rich in soil nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium.

Detailed explanation-5: -Cow manure is a great all-purpose fertilizer. It’s low in nitrogen so it won’t burn your tender plants, and has a good balance of nutrients. What’s more, since a cow’s four stomachs digest its food so thoroughly, very few weed seeds make it through, so you don’t have to worry about them.
