ORGANIC MANURE
[EIRI/EDPR/7284] (J.C.4660)
1 For gardening, goat manure can be a real asset. In their naturally dry, pelleted state, goat feces are easily handled, stored or directly applied on vegetables, trees, and flower gardens, as mulch, organic matter, fertilizer, or just to increase the water holding capacity of the soil; and goat feces do not normally attract flies or breed maggots. A daily raking or sweeping of the goat yard keeps the goats clean and free from parasites; and the garden will soon show its appreciation.
2 Few research data are available on the value of goat feces or manure. Of course, it depends on the level of feeding. Thus, high producing, well fed dairy goats should produce more and better feces than other goats. In general, 2.0 to 6.00f live weight of goat in fresh feces weight can be expected. Depending on feed and water intake, the fresh feces voided per day might weigh between 30, and as much as 1000f the daily dry matter consumed. Dry matter content of goat feces is be tween 50 and 60ormally; the color depends on the type of feed. Hard feed kernels, like barley and corn may appear in goat feces, especially at high levels of feeding, but generally they are masticated and ruminated much
finer and more completely than by calves or cows.
3 Goat feces contain not only feed residues but endogenous substances from the goat's intestinal tract too. Swedish research established that goats excrete daily, regardless of feed type, a minimum of 34g protein, 8g fat and 13g arbohydrates for each kg (2.2 lb) feed dry matter eaten. This would mean that a 150 lb goat milking a gallon of milk a day, and been given 7 lbs of feed dry matter daily; this goat would lose 7/2.2 x 34 = 108g protein daily in her feces, not even accounting for her milk production and her own maintenance needs. This 108g endogenous protein loss also translates into a 3.4minimum protein content in the 7 lb daily feed dry matter to avoid a negative protein balance for this goat. In comparison, a daily goat ration with a 14 protein content supplies just 445g protein, of which a certain percentage is always undigestible and a loss to the goat too. This percentage increases when the crude fiber content of the feed increases.
