S, then, composting gets rid of the ecoli, which is perhaps a better proces to use anyway( ups soil microbes)?

Just to be clear, we're not talking about compost. We're talking about
direct manure application to the land, and/or rotating animals on/off of crop
growing grounds, and/or having irrigation water moving from livestock areas
to growing areas. Compost treatment protocols have NOT changed.

I have always been led to believe that proper composting, with the high
temperatures involved, will eliminate virtually all pathogens ( then , just
bury the stuff, so it is not on the surface, just to be sure...).
