When I took my nursery course I was told that Steer Manure could
contain more than 10% salt because they use it at the feed lots to
bulk up the cattle.
1 cubic foot of SM is on sale this weekend at $.59. It is being
advertised as a fertilizer and has practically no value as fertilizer. It
is a great way of adding organic materials to your garden if you can
rototill or dig it in and water it enough times to leech the salt out of
your soil. If you have clay soils and poor drainage find another
organic material.
