HEY MATE
HERE IS YOUR ANSWER
In an decomposition reaction, energy is usually absorbed and they are termed as endothermic reaction, But in the casw of decomposition of vegetable matter, when microbes reacts on animal or plant waste, a lot of energy is given out which leads to the release of gases thus terming the reaction as exothermic reaction . In other decomposition reaction energy is absorbed to break down the bonds between the substances, but as microbes acts for decomposition of vegetable matter it becomes exothermic
