Are you sure the person being paid isn't already "disposing" of the manure
by hauling it off to be composted or otherwise used as a soil
amendment/fertilizer? Seems highly unlikely to me that a manure hauler is
trucking the stuff off to a landfill.
As for Question 2 (the use of sewage sludge in landscaping), I personally
see no reason sewage sludge could not be appropriately used for some
landscaping purposes, like highway median plantings, shopping center
landscaping or golf course fairways.
