Manure is organic matter, mostly derived from animal feces except in the case of green manure, which can be used as organic fertilizer in agriculture. Most animal manure consist of feces. Common forms of animal manure include farmyard manure (FYM) or farm slurry (liquid manure). The FYM also contains plant material (often straw), which has been used as bedding for animals and has absorbed the feces and urine. It presents an accessible overview of environmentally friendly technologies for managing animal manure more efficiently and in a sustainable manner. The book "Animal Manure Recycling Treatment and Management"is divided into nine chapters. The purpose of first chapter is to give an overview of the three major management technologies of manure recycling, including the aerobic processes of composting and vermicomposting and the anaerobic digestion for biogas production.
