raw chicken manure

What are the effects of raw/ half-fermented chicken manure on soil or crops?

Compost, whether made from chicken manure, any animal manure, or plant materials, requires proper decomposition as a fundamental condition.​

However, using chicken manure that hasn’t decomposed well can lead to issues with various pests and pathogens, which can infect plants, making them more susceptible to pests or diseases. Additionally, there are concerns about pathogenic bacteria and heavy metal residues, which can be absorbed by fruits and vegetables and affect human health if consumed.​

Compost made from plant materials generally contains fewer pests and pathogens compared to chicken manure, reducing the risk of plant diseases. If you’re unfamiliar with whether compost has fully decomposed or unsure how to discern, it’s generally better to use compost made from plant materials.​
