From time immemorial, the manure was considered the best organic fertilizer - a "brown gold" downright been snapped up, so I've often be witnessed verbal skirmishes farmers fighting for this valuable material. And even despite the fact that most gardeners do not change their traditions and still used on the sites is the organic agent, about his many disagreements arose. In this article I will discuss the most common arguments in favor of that on my site is better to do without manure.
The first and probably most importantly, on what I would like to emphasize - material quality. After all, buying manure, we deliberately choose organics, as to make chemicals in your garden simply do not want to. But then the question is different - are you sure that the manure that you bought does not contain the same "harmful" chemistry?! After all, as you know, harmless composition of manure depends on the food animals themselves - cows, horses. And if they are fed with chemical additives? That, of course, all chemicals will be not only on your site, but also on the table as part of the very fruits grown on fertilized, "useful" manure beds.
Next on the list - specific "flavor" of manure. I think we all know that fresh manure should not be used as fertilizer. As a rule, lovers of organic fertilizing the area is always "odorous" pile, which patiently waiting in the wings. But all would be nothing but a fly such a temptation He does not resist, so do not take a long time, you will notice that these intrusive guests almost moved to you live. Agree such neighbors - the last thing you can dream of, because not only did the flies prevent good rest, so also are carriers of various infections.
Mole - how "pleasant" bonus purchased dunghill. Well, there's nothing to say - this creature just loves dung, and therefore feels the fertilizer brought a mile away. While pest can appear on your site directly from the manure, and get rid of him, as practice shows, not so easy.
So in the end I will say a few words about parasites, which is also possible to get to the kitchen garden manure. This, for example, the same worms that are infected with the manure into the soil and bear the risk of contamination of fruits and vegetables.
In any case, you are entitled to decide whether to use or not manure. But as they say, forewarned - is forearmed!
