manure
Soil enrichment source
Manure is animal dung used as fertilizer.
Farmers spread manure on fields to enrich the soil with nutrients.
The word can also function as a verb: They manured the garden beds before planting.
Manure occasionally appears as a mild substitute for shit or bullshit: That's a load of manure.
