Shelf life of pasteurized dung?

Hi there. I know this question has been asked and answered before, but I wasn't sure how to search for it. So here is the question. About a month ago I pasteurized/sealed some horse dung. I was wondering if it is still "good" to use? What is the approximate shelf life of pasteurized dung? And when it turns "bad", does that mean that it has lost nutrients, or...?
Thanks for your help

I dont know, but I have had a bag of tenn hpoo in the fridge for over a month sealed, and I had no problems.
I think it depends on how you store it.
So how did ya

it's only good past a week or two if you 1) refridgerate it or 2) freeze it
i recommend freezing.
i've heard of it lasting longer than 2 weeks... but not by much... perhaps a month if you're lucky

How long should refrigerating the pooh mix make it last?

ok, when poo is pasteurized, it doesn't get rid of all of the bacteria like when you sterlize... so basically, you refridgerate it, and the bacteria or contams will be SLOW... they'll still be there, since it was pasteurized, but they'll be small and slow... if you freeze it, it'll stop all growth. so it really depends.

Does freezing it kill the bacteria or just stop the growth of it while frozen?

just stops the growth... you want the good bacteria, that's why you pasteurize instead of sterlize

BS.
It will last for months sitting in the closet. I am well aware of what the TN Stud website says. Milk is also good beyond the date printed on it..
