  1. The main Differences between Fertiliser and Manure are as follows:
    Fetilisers:
    1. A fertiliser is an inorganic salt.
    2. A fertiliser is prepared in factories.
    3. A fertiliser does not provide any humus to the soil.
    4. Fertilisers are very rich in plant nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.
    Manures:
    1.Manure is a natural substance obtained by the decomposition of cattle dung, human waste and plant residues.
    2.Manure can be prepared in the fields.
    3.Manure provides a lot of humus to the soil.
