Horses eat grass, so they defecate recycled vegetation.
It rains in Kentucky so it washes away.
What is the problem?
They are independent, religious, self-reliant people and must be punished.
“They are independent...”
If they are so independent, why are they on the public street?
A 1,000 pound horse will defecate approximately four to thirteen times each day and produce approximately nine tons of manure per year. The 1,000 pound horse will produce, on the average, 37 pounds of feces and 2.4 gallons of urine daily, which totals about 50 pounds of raw waste per day in feces and urine combined.

Gardeners should pick it up - this stuff is valuable!!!!
Good fertilizer. For goodness sake are we so thin-blooded that this upsets us - in the middle of horse country?
We use hay and oats, used once on our garden!
We live 25 miles from the heart of the largest Amish community in the world, Holmes County, Ohio. Lots of it on the roads there. And Holmes County has buggy lanes on the main roads.
We buy eggs and produce from the Amish. Free range Amish eggs are the best, and we pay $1 or $1.50 per dozen, depending on size. We also buy Amish butter, and it is best when the cows have been grazing on Spring grass, a deep yellow/orange color, naturally.
