What is this dust like material on the substrate?

I got questions about this material that may be visible in some pictures.
This is what we call here  chicken bedding. Saw dust used in poultries to raise chicken
This saw dust is used to cover the floor. So this is saw dust plus chicken droppings,
feathers and whatever may be found there. This bedding is removed then grinded into a fine dust. This is a Nitrogen rich material, cheap and abundant in Santa Catarina as we are the largest chicken producer in the  world. This nutritious fertilizer is at plenty here. 
Dyckias adore it and grow rapid and strong.
