Manure is an organic matter composed of animal feces, wasted feed, dung cakes, animal bones etc. They are used by farmers to provide nutrients to the crops. it is also adds organic matter to the soil which may improve the soil structure, aeration, soil moisture-holding capacity and water infiltration.

Green manure: it is also known as cover crop, grown to add nutrients in the soil. when any crop like wheat, bajra etc. are harvested, green manure crops usually leguminous plants are grown to increase the organic matter and nutrients in the soil. they are grown for a short period of time and then mulched by ploughing back into the soil.
