PAS_1 "The cowdung can be used to store seeds for periods upto a year, until required for the next sowing. This method actually improves the germination and viability of the seeds, in addition to protecting it from pests. This can be done with both fresh and dried dung, but is more effective when the dung is fresh". - https://www.instructables.com/Using-cowpat-to-store-seeds/#:~:text=The%20cowdung%20can%20be%20used,when%20the%20dung%20is%20fresh.
