Good things about Horse Manure
Maurice and Daan
Maurice and Daan certainly do their job here on the quinta by providing us with their manure.
Composted Horse Manure
Animal dung has been used for centuries as a fertiliser, as it improves the soil structure so that it holds more nutrients and water, and becomes more fertile. It encourages soil microbial activity which promotes the soil’s trace mineral supply, improving plant nutrition. It also contains some nitrogen and other nutrients itself which assist the growth of plants.
It also helps keep us fit as we have to dig it up and push it up the hill to the gardens!
