Nitrogen feeds the microorganisms in soil that make humus from a compost pile Manure is rich in nitrogen (especially chicken, goat, and steer manures), and is thus a valuable component of compost It is also rich in potassium and phosphorus Manure should be composted (or at least aged) before use in the garden because of its high nitrogen --and ammonia-- content, which can both easily burn plants Composting will also kill any weed seeds that may have survived the animal's stomach(s)

Manure is animal faeces, sometimes mixed with chemicals, that is spread on the ground in order to make plants grow healthy and strong. bags of manure. waste matter from animals that is mixed with soil to improve the soil and help plants grow (manouvrer , from manu operare; MANEUVER). Organic material that is used to fertilize land, usually consisting of the feces and urine of domestic livestock, with or without litter such as straw, hay, or bedding. Some countries also use human excrement ("night soil"). Though livestock manure is less rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, and potash than synthetic fertilizers and therefore must be applied in much greater quantities, it is rich in organic matter, or humus, and thus improves the capacity of the soil to absorb and store water, thereby preventing erosion. Because manure must be carefully stored and spread in order to derive the most benefit, some farmers decline to expend the necessary time and effort. Manufactured chemical fertilizers, though more concentrated and efficient, are also more costly and more likely to cause excess runoff and pollution. See also green manure

Crop grown and plowed under for its beneficial effects to the soil and subsequent crops, though during its growth it may be grazed. These crops are usually annuals, either grasses or legumes. They add nitrogen to the soil, increase the general fertility level, reduce erosion, improve the physical condition of the soil, and reduce nutrient loss from leaching. They are usually planted in the fall and turned under in the spring before the summer crop is sown. See also cover crop
