0 solid waste from animals that is used to make plants grow well -- abono, estiércol
1 a mixture containing animal dung, spread on soil to help produce better crops etc -- estiércol
The farmer is putting manure on his fields.
2 to treat (soil or plants) with manure -- abonar, estercolar
The farmer has been manuring the fields.
My second question is this: nitrate in groundwater can come from sources other than animal manure.
Is it about manure spreading?
When produced from animal manure, sludge, communal and animal organic waste it offers new income opportunities to the farming community.
Coccidiostats now accompany the manure that is spread on the fields.
We cannot accept the exclusion of manure produced on farm from the scope of the proposal as this would reduce health protection.
What is left over from the manure will be an even better fertiliser that is more versatile than aggressive fertilisers.
And if nitrate is measured, how is it determined that it originates from animal manure alone?
Then they would no longer need to use manure, which we know that they need for cultivating crops, and they would no longer need to use black coal for heating.
