Experiments at Purdue University show well fed horses produce manure worth 814.75 annually, dairy cows 18.75, other cattle 11 080, bedp 225, and hogs 2.10. Many farmers fail to realize these values due to improper care. Over half the fertilizing value lies in urine, urging precautions to prevent loss. Urine carries about three-fourths of total nitrogen and four-fifths of total potash, with key elements for plant growth.
