Compost manure is animal dung that is treated by composting, and is often used with other organic materials because it supplies the bacteria most needed in a composting system.

Compost is almost any natural substance that is organic and biodegradable, and handled in a way that speeds up the natural degradation (break down) process of the original material.

Composted animal manure has been left to mature, to take away any chance of it burning your plants, as can happen with some manures. For example, chicken manure is particularly high in nitrogen and ammonia, both of which can burn both roots and leaves if applied fresh in too large doses. Composting loses some of the nitrogen content, but it will be a far safer product to use.

What is considered composted horse manure?

Composted manure of any farm animal is manure that has been composted properly for the amount of time necessary to completely break down the material into it's basic organic components. Composted material is best identified by sight and touch: It is black, loose, crumbly, moist and has no smell to speak of. How long it takes to compost manure, or any other organic material, depends on the mixtutre of materials in the pile, moisture, aeration (turned piles compost much faster) and temperature. In a well maintained compost pile in summertime, complete composting can take place in as little as six weeks. When farmers spread horse manure "raw" on a field, they are assuming it will have three to six months breakdown time before that field is planted.
