Good idea, but fresh manure only adversely affects tuberous vegetables by making them look forked and ugly. Like all fertilizing material to much might burn the plants. To much is determined by what kind of animal it came from. Chicken and sheep being fairly strong, so you would use less of it, unless it were composted first. Compost being the great neutralizer.

i don't have an issue with animal manures, but would compost them before
applying to growing beds.
