(dung might be a better term for what you were referring to. i seem to remember that because of the way they feed their cattle the dung has a very high fibre content which makes it a good source for building material. it’s nowhere as gross as the diarrhea like consistency we get from cows in Europe)

this is my impression. back when i still was in academia it would pop up from time to time but i never published there since i never cited any of their journals in the first place.

(it’s academic spam essentially).
have a look at retraction watch retractionwatch.com/?s=mdpi
