Answer 2

hey ur answer is ready,
manures-they r relatively less rich in plant nutrients.
               they would become better in long run because it contains organic                               matter.
               they do not cause water pollution.
               it is not costly.


Fertilizers-they are very rich in plant nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus and                     potassium.
                 they contain chemical substances which when used in excess                         become harmful to the consumers.
                 they run off from the fields also causes water pollution.
                 it is costly.

hope my answer helps you.....thanks
