Slurry is a form of MANURE composed mainly
of liquids. Slurry is collected and stored on
many farms, especially when large numbers of
animals are kept in factory units. When
slurry tanks are accidentally or deliberately
breached, large amounts can spill into
rivers, killing fish and causing
eutrophication. Some slurry is spread on
fields as a fertilizer.
