Dirt is awful.

I know of a dairy who has dirt, but put down lime to neutralize the urine.

I have road base gravel in my barn with the intentions of putting decomposed granite (which is like rock dust) over the top but I never got that far. So right now it is compacted gravel with lots of straw over the top. This summer it will get scraped, more gravel added and then the decomposed granite. The goal is to basically build it slightly mounded so no outside water can flow into the barn.
