Abstract - Cow Dung is the most important source of bio-fertilizer and is used for energy production in many developing countries. It is a very effective alternative to chemical fertilizers, which in the long-term increases’ productivity, maintains soil health and increases microbial populations. Cow dung and compost increase soil organic matter, which improves water infiltration and water retention and increases cation exchange capacity. It is one of the renewable and sustainable energy sources through manure or biogas, which replaces the dependence on charcoal, firewood, firewood and fossil fuels, etc. In addition, proper and economical use of cow dung can also increase crop productivity also reduces the probability of pathogenic bacterial and fungal diseases. Therefore, improper use of cow dung should be stopped and used as organic fertilizer to maintain a productive and sustainable agricultural system. Introduction: Cow dung is the main source of bio fertilizer, but at the same time, cow urine, cow horn and cow body can be used to make effective bio fertilizer. Animals can play an important role in energy production, either in a negative way, where livestock farming contributes to the loss of forests in large parts of the forest area, or in a positive way, for example by changing the energy of plants into useful work. or providing manure for fuel through manure cakes. or biogas to replace charcoal, firewood, firewood, etc. Most livestock production in mixed farming systems comes from animals fed on local resources such as pasture, crop residues, forage trees and shrubs. We practiced agriculture and farming according to the traditional, ancient system, when manure was, among other things, cow dung. In agriculture, there are various products made from cow dung and cow urine that can be used as fertilizer and pest control, respectively. These products are very popular and are used every day. Low soil fertility is one of the most important biophysical constraints to agroforestry crop production worldwide (Ajayi, 2007).
