[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 816039, member: 12607"] Agreed. Few intestinal parasites shared by horses and cattle - and usually, the horses are more damaged by the few that may pass from cows to horses than vice-versa. Horse manure can be a source of [i]Clostridium tetani[i] spores - but again, horses are more susceptible to developing tetanus than are cows. Dragging to scatter manure piles is really only economically worthwhile if you're using it as a means of legal wealth transfer(paying your kids to do it, and writing it off as 'farm labor'); if YOU have to do it, there's bound to be better things you could do with your time, as well as the $$ squandered on fuel, wear & tear on equipment, and soil compaction.[/i][/i] [/QUOTE]
