I'm not quite sure whether you're trying to be a little tongue-in-cheek with your post, Burr, but as I've said in the past, almost anything can be implemented in a useful way - and manure is no exception.
Regarding using manure for spell ingredients, bat guano (bat excrement) is one of the three components required for a fireball spell in AD&D.
However, as has already been pointed out, manure is also a very useful resource. We use it in the real world primarily for things like fertiliser, compost, mulch, and the like - but also to produce biogas, which can be burned for heat or used to produce electricity (via a generator). You could also just burn dried solid manure to produce energy. Not very nice, admittedly, but if you're a poor peasant it's better than freezing to death.
Some muds already incorporate resources like trees, minerals, stone, oil, water, etc - so there's no real reason why you couldn't also add manure (particularly if you already have farming as an option).
