Manure

My name is Georgia and my Natural Resource is Manure!!
Definition: Manure is any substance produced by animals or plants that is used as fertilizer. Most manure consists of animal waste mixed with straw or hay from barnyards, thought it may also be pure animal waste. Most manure consists of animal waste mixed with straw or hay from barnyards, though it may be pure animal wastes. This source is renewable, it is replenished every day. How is Manure Used: Farmers collect the manure that is produced by barnyard animals and spread onto the farmers fields. When it decays, it releases important nutrients that enrich the soil and aid in plant growth. Manure also loosens the soil and improves its ability to absorb water. Animal manure is and excellent source of organic matter for the soil. Manure is a substance put in or on the soil as fertilizer. It helps grow large, healthy flowers and vegetables that are then sold by the farmers to stores. Farmers use manure to help produce abundant crops. Farmers use machine spreaders to spread the manure on the crops (as seen in this picture).

Human Activities and Man Made Products: Farmers take the manure from the animals and put it in a special kind of machine called a Spreader. Then the farmers spread the manure all over their fields to fertilize the crops. Manure is "Not" a man made product. People can also buy manure from farmers and spread it on their own gardens to help grow good plants.

Conservation and Management: The farmers use the manure as a fertilizer, which saves money, rather than buy fertilizers that are more expensive. Using the manure also recycles it instead of getting rid of it. The farmers manage the manure by spreading it onto the crops.  Manure is very improtant to everyday living. People use the products that are grown in the farmer's crops everyday for cooking. Manure is one of the reasons why we have the foods that are grown in crops because it is the fertilizer that helped the plants grow. Farmers all over P.A have farms that produce manure, then they use the manure to spread on their fields to produce crops. They grow the crops and then sell what is produced, to stores for money.
 * How is Manure Important to Society's Needs: **

Environmental Impact: Manure is one of the resons why we have fruits and vegetables available in stores, so they can use them in everyday cooking, and eating.

My Feelings on the Use of Manure: <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%;">I Feel that using manure as a fertilizer to grow good crops and recycle the manure is very helpful to the environment. I feel that manure is also very helpful to grow nice plants in gardens. It has lots of nutrients that are put into the soil when it is spread on fields.
