Special thanks to Storey Publishing for providing a review copy of this book. This post may contain affiliate links. If you have animals, you have manure. If you have horses or other large livestock, then you have tons of manure. According to the book, two horses (like we have) would produce, on average, 18 tons of manure a year.
