Fertilizers- They are inorganic salts. They are produced in factories. They are very rich in nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. They cause water pollution. They don't provide any humus to soil. Manure- These are made by decomposing the dead remains of plants and animals. It is prepared in fields. It provides alot of humus to soil. They donot causa pollution. They are less nutrient rich.
