Any manure applied to organic fields is heated at high temperatures for several days (composted) to eliminate pathogens before applying it to the fields. It is also usually worked into the soil and/or applied over winter time and allowed to break down even more. If a farmer is not doing this, he is not following the organic standards and is breaking the law if he is under an organic certification program.

Anyways, I think the point of the topic was that it is good to reduce exposure to toxins to protect the brain while healing. That is something I would agree with. Bud, I support all kinds of agriculture, but do you worry about exposure to potentially harmful chemicals in your line of work? I'm sure you have high safety protocols. I hope you have them for your workers too.
