Manure Gases
Manure produces a wide variety of gases that can affect a person. These gases are particularly dangerous when they are contained within a confined space, barn or storage facility or while agitated for removal or spreading. They can rapidly overwhelm someone by causing respiratory irritation or asphyxiation.

Irish Scientists Aim to Knock Wind Out of Greenhouse Effect
"...their next goal will be to reduce levels of methane emission. Which should be quite a simple thing to do, actually. Apart from cutting out the onion soup and baked beans, they simply need to ensure that the cattle and sheep avoid curry, three-alarm (or stronger) chilli, and pints of Guinness. Well, it works for me."
