[QUOTE="sim.-ang.king, post: 1116636, member: 14533"] Organic matter sitting on top of the ground takes much longer to break down, and a lot of nutrients "gas off" or wash out, specially N. If you burn it you crate potash, and reduce weeds. You plow it under you get nitrogen, but can increase weeds. You let cows eat it you get Phos. and nitrogen. Grazing, or making hay and then spreading the manure usally is best. All depends on what your soil, and grass needs. [/QUOTE]
