Just to clarify a little, are we talking 210 days for E. Coli after it
leaves the digestive tract of mammals? I do not knowingly use manure less
than a year old. However, our bottomland vegetable production is in a flood
plain subject to winter and early spring flooding. It seems that you are
suggesting that growing there might not be safe.
Nevertheless..it is amazing that he human race is still around considering
all the varmints wandering through our vegetable patches.

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...).
