<DIV></DIV>>humm...bet they are similar..sheep chew grass, and cow manure has 
<DIV></DIV>>grass fiber too...leave it to DRY fully, then crumble into a powder 
<DIV></DIV>>and add it to the cob. 
<DIV></DIV>> 
<DIV></DIV>>do a search for sheep diets, farming and see if there are any clues 
<DIV></DIV>>to how the farmers handle manure

<P>I THINK in the east anyway, they have these peculiar looking translucent tanks with a black cap in the middle of the field. They don't resemble water tanks, because of the cap.....and also the proximity to the manure piles here, some of them 6 to 8 feet high by 25 feet by 30 feet semi contained in concrete blocks. It strikes me that the tank-with-black-cap could be a manure digester of some type, 'cause I think the only other alternative is to spread it over the fields. Or build another concrete manure pen, open on one side. Boy there is a lot of it.</P>
