What happens here

The presenter drives the tractor with the newly attached loader to a large pile of horse manure. He uses the loader to begin turning the manure pile, demonstrating how this process introduces microbes and oxygen, which accelerates the composting process. He notes that the pile is currently around 155 degrees Fahrenheit due to active decomposition. He proudly displays a handful of rich, dark compost, highlighting its value as a natural fertilizer.

Goal: The tractor loader is used to turn a large pile of horse manure, an essential step in accelerating decomposition and creating nutrient-rich compost.
