Explanation:

#What is Manure?

=>Manure is obtained from the decomposition of dead plants and animals. They essentially function as sustenance to the crops. They help in the proper cultivation of crops. Addition of manure enables the soil to hold more water. Organic manures have acids that dissolve the nutrients with soil and make it available to the plants.

Advantages of Manure

  • It increases the water-holding capacity of the soil.
  • It makes the soil porous and facilitates the exchange of gases.
  • The texture of the soil improves.
  • The number of microbes increases in the soil.

#Fertilizers

=>A fertilizer is a chemical substance that contains necessary nutrients such as nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorous to make the soil fertile. Popular examples of fertilizers are urea, potash, and ammonium sulphate.

Advantages of fertilizers

  • They are quick in providing plant nutrients and restoring soil fertility.
  • They are portable and easy to transport.
  • Plants easily absorb fertilizers.
  • Fertilizers improve and increase the productivity of many crops such as wheat, maize, and rice.
