I was thinking since I'm from the northeast of America and we have such a heavy amount of leaf fall do farmers use leaves for fertilizer instead of manure?

They break down faster if mixed with soil and manure and kept moist, turned over every so often. You end up with a nutrient rich humus that helps to build up soils.

Ahh that's the rich coffee looking soil. On my father's property I'll find all the soil we need for plantings over by a intermittent stream he has. That soil is so rich. It's filled with tons of leaf fall and dead plant matter. I'd imagine some bugs as well.
