hello -I ordered Gro-sure farmyard manure as I find it excellent after a recommendation. They have sent Westmorland farmyard manure (same firm) which seems much more broken down. Is it the same and will it do as good a job?

    To be honest, l have no idea, but l think as with many of these things you will only find out out when you come to use it :) .
    I agree about Gro-sure, l use it myself.
    If you are in any doubt, you could perhaps ask for a refund and try to obtain it somewhere else.

    I'd think it would be fine. More broken down is better anyway  :)

    Why on earth would you use manure from an animal that has been force fed and pumped full of antibiotics and growth hormones, you have a brain, use it

    I think he’s referring to intensively reared cattle-lot beef in the US.

    Hmmm...interesting comment by a new poster, along with their other posts in a similar vein. An agenda going on perhaps, or just a WUM?  :)

    Agree Fairygirl and think it's the latter judging by his other posts. If it was an agenda there would have been a debate.
