    The tomato is a short-lived perennial plant that is typically grown as an annual. It grows 1-3 meters tall with a weakly woody stem. Fresh cow manure can burn plants when directly applied due to high ammonia levels. Composted cow manure provides benefits and is made up mostly of digested grass and grains, containing 3% nitrogen, 2% phosphorus, and 1% potassium. Shredded leaves used as mulch can penetrate water, while whole leaves may form a water-blocking mat.

    By Nikki Tilley (Author of

    The use of cattle manure, or cow
    dung, in the garden is a popular
    practice in many rural areas. This type
    of manure is not as rich in nitrogen as
    many other types; however, the high
    ammonia levels can burn plants
    when the fresh manure is directly
    applied. Composted cow manure,
    on the other hand, can provide
    numerous benefits to the garden.

    What is Cow Manure Made Up Of? Cattle manure is basically made up of


    digested grass and grain. Cow dung is high in organic materials and rich in nutrients. It
    contains about 3 percent nitrogen, 2 percent phosphorus, and 1 percent potassium (3-2-1
    NPK). In addition, cow manure contains high levels of ammonia and potentially dangerous
    pathogens. For this reason, it’s usually recommended that it be aged or composted prior to
    its use as cow manure fertilizer.

    Be sure to chop or shred leaves before using them
    as mulch. Whole leaves can form a mat that water
    can't penetrate. If you add shredded leaves right
    to the soil, add some slow-release
    nitrogen fertilizers to help the leaves decompose
    and to ensure that soil microbes don't use all of the
    available nitrogen.
