The document discusses various ways to manage goat manure from farms in the Philippines. It notes that a single goat produces around 138 kg of manure per year. Goat manure can be used directly as fertilizer if dried and aged, or composted to reduce smells and pathogens while improving soil quality. Composting goat manure also releases nutrients and creates an economically valuable product. The document further explores using composted goat manure tea as a fertilizer or pesticide, as well as setting up biogas digesters to process goat manure into fuel.

Composting Goat Manure
Advantages of composting the goat manure:
1.Reduce the amount of waste in the farms
2.The smell caused by the pile of goat manure can be reduced.
3.Eliminates the potential pathogens present in livestock
manure
4.Grains that can be weeds will die or will not grow.
5.Easing in transportation and compost can improve the soil.
6.Composting goat manure can release nutrients that can be
directly utilized by the plants.
7.Reduce sources of pollution and Economic Value.
