Abstract
It was examined that various types of organic materials and wastes with distinct levels of maturity reacted chemically, chemically-physically, and biochemically. The manures are used to increase soil productivity by modifying the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the soil. They are organic in nature, of plant or animal origin, and consist of a substantial proportion of organic matter and a moderate amount of plant nutrients. Compost is an organic substance that is utilized in agriculture as organic fertilizer. By incorporating organic matter and nutrients, like nitrogen, that are held in the soil by bacteria, it helps to increase the soil's fertility. The soil food web is a cycle of life that includes fungi, bacteria, and higher species that consume the fungi and bacteria. The store of organic matter in the soil is further enhanced by the various organic manures that are frequently introduced.
