perhaps i also don't know enough about this, but find it irresponsible
to suggest that using human or animal waste directly on a garden is a safe thing to do.
It is not irresponsible. Where is the proof? Never use cat manure directly. You can get sick just gardening in it where a cat used the bathroom. Probably will not but possible. I know one person who did 30 years ago. Very rare.

I have done it and recommend it at times. Cow, horse, pig manures has nothing in it that can get into a human eating the food from such a garden. You will die in a car accident a long time before dying from food out of such a garden. Yet, we accept those odds without even thinking.
If it does not sound pleasant to you, that is another subject. Read no further, then. I grew up with all these animals and love'm and
have no problem with them. Even their manure.
While in college I helped the AI technican when he wanted a day off. One has to put one's arm down the rectum of the cow in all that manure in order to breed her. I did it one time without a glove.
So what?
