Pond Boss Forums POND CONSTRUCTION Renovating a Pond or Lake? Spread muck on a field?

Muck makes great soil amendment. The only caveat is if the previous owner used a lot of copper sulphate to treat algae. Maybe a soil test for heavy metals and other nasties would be appropriate if you don't know the history of the pond.

A friend has a farm that is mostly muck soil. Takes a while to dry out so they can plant, but they get great yields from it.

If the muck is the same consistency of manure, I don't see why a manure spreader wouldn't work.
