What does MANURE mean in Scrabble?
noun
Animal dung, or similar decayed organic matter, spread on soil to fertilize it and help crops grow.
Farmers have used manure for thousands of years to return to a field what earlier crops had drawn out of it, and well-rotted manure is prized not only for feeding plants but for the way it improves the structure of poor, heavy soil over time. The word also works as a verb, as in to manure a field, meaning to apply it directly rather than name the substance itself. Some farms today use manure alongside, or instead of, manufactured chemical fertilizer, and gardeners often prefer it for the same reason.
