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!!!!
When my mom was a little girl, the rag man would come along with his horse drawn wagon and his horse would always choose their street to go in.
When they heard the guy coming, she and all her siblings would scatter cause their mom would grab the first kid she could find to clean it up and put in her garden, which was second to none.
It was a BEAUTIFUL garden with rich soil.
There’s brown gold in them thar hills!
