Rabbit manure has an N-P-K of about 7 - 2.5 - 0.5 when it is dry (when fresh, divide those numbers by 10). It is excellent for leafy vegetables, esp. if you don't mind your Arugula bolting a little early. As a fertilizer for fruit trees, you'll need about 14 lbs of the dry stuff plus a potassium supplement for each tree.
