  1. Manure

    Share Share Post
    There are two kinds of manure - artificial and yard - manure.
    The farmers in this district use yard - manure. They make the yard manure by shaking straw on a damp ground and after a few months it decays.
    This manure is a lot cheaper and better than the artificial manure which is got from foreign countries.
