What is Manure?
Manure is cow dung that has decomposed for two to three years in manure piles, with a neutral pH (6-7.5). It is properly decomposed, ready to use, and odorless. Manure is packaged in 40L plastic bags or 30L bags.
Usage and Effect
Manure is an ideal organic fertilizer used at 5-6 kg per square meter. It is a long-lasting fertilizer with effects that persist in the soil for 2-4 years. Additionally, manure improves soil structure and fertility.

9 Essential Nutrients in Cow Manure
