Deep-litter manure

The best and least wasteful storage is in the deep-litter stall. The cattle, sheep, and goats urinate and dung onto the fresh layer of straw; the liquid manure is absorbed completely by the straw. Its nitrogen content accelerates the aerobic breakdown of the nitrogen-poor straw. The animals themselves fulfil the requirement of "keep it moist and tread it firm."
