Answer:

Hey mate here is your answer..,

Explanation:

Manure adds a lot more than crop nutrients to your soil. Just ask J.Mark Powell. Dr. Powell, whose title is “Agroecologist” at the USDA Agricultural Research Service U.S. Dairy Forage Research Center at Madison, Wis., offers a list of the benefits from manure that you can’t get from chemical fertilizers. “You’re applying organic matter, which enhances the physical properties of the soil structure,” Powell says, explaining that the manure lightens the texture of the soil, enhancing rainfall infiltration. He goes on, “It increases the cation exchange capacity of the soil, or the ability of the soil to hold on to nutrients and pesticides and make them more effective than if you were just applying fertilizer.”
