(1996, 1999) found increased P loss in runoff as ability needs to be quantified. An incubation study was conducted to determine P availability from swine (Sus scrofa) and cattle (Bos tauthe soil P test increased. Eghball et al. (2002b) showed rus) feedlot manure in three soils. Treatments for each manure inthat soil test P was not a significant factor when manure cluded temperature (11, 18, 25, and 32 C), water regime [constant was applied shortly before rainfall; however, P loss in 60% water-filled pore space (WFPS) vs. four dry-down cycles of 60 runoff was related to soil test P when manure application to 30% WFPS], time, and soils (Catlin silt loam, Sharpsburg silty clay was made a year earlier. loam, and Valentine fine sand). In another study, synthetic P fertilizer To provide P needs of a crop, the amount of P minerwas used to determine the fraction of P that becomes unavailable alized following manure application needs to be deterwith time to compare with manure P. Time, soil, and manure applicamined. Phosphorus in manure is in various forms but is tion were factors that influenced soil test P and water-soluble P during mostly inorganic (Sharpley and Moyer, 2000; Eghball, incubation. At the low synthetic P fertilizer rate of 6 g g 1, about 2003), indicating that P availability following application 12 kg P ha 1, none of the applied P remained available in the Catlin soil while about one-third remained plant available in the Sharpsburg should be high if the inorganic P converts to plant availsoil and two-thirds in the Valentine soil. At the high P rate, 68 mg able form after application. Mineralization of organic P kg 1, 38 to 83% of fertilizer P remained available in the three soils. in the soil is catalyzed by various enzymes, including phyPhosphorus availability was 60 to 100% of applied cattle manure P tase (He and Honeycutt, 2001). Water-soluble P (WSP) and 52 to 100% of swine slurry P in the three soils. Phosphorus was 19% of swine manure P (Sharpley and Moyer, 2000) availability in the Sharpsburg soil was 100% of P in both manure and 8% of beef cattle feedlot manure P (Eghball and types. Phosphorus availability from manure is high, and manure can Gilley, 1999). Kleinman et al.

In P-deficient content of manure. Based on the soil test P changes and soils, a P availability of 70% should be used. plant P uptake 1 yr after application, P availability in the first year after application was 85% for beef cattle feedlot manure and 73% for composted feedlot manure M contains significant amounts of P that can (Eghball et al., 2002a). Slightly lower P availability from be utilized for crop production. Manure is usually composted than noncomposted manure indicated chemapplied to provide N needs of a growing crop. However, ical reaction of P during composting that involved turnbecause of concerns about surface water pollution with ing and mixing caused P to become less plant available. P and the subsequent eutrophication, P-based manure Motavalli et al. (1989) found that P availability from application is becoming more common in a number of injected dairy manure ranged from 12 to 89% based on states (Weld et al., 2002; Sharpley et al., 2003). The P uptake. The low P availability in this study was due USDA and USEPA (1999) jointly issued the Unified to a small crop P uptake response from applied manure Strategy for Animal Feeding Operations in which P-based P. In a field study, Wen et al. (1997) found that 69% management approaches were emphasized for sites vulof composted manure P was plant available. Ebeling et nerable to P loss. The final Confined Animal Feeding al. (2003) found that composition of the P source added Operation’s rule was registered on 12 Feb. 2003. Eghball influenced soil test P. and Power (1999) found that P-based manure or comSoil and environmental factors influence manure P post application resulted in soil test P levels similar to and N mineralization and availability. Soil and manure the original soil P level after 4 yr of application, but N mineralization increases with increasing temperature N-based application resulted in significant P buildup of under conditions found in agricultural soils (Cassman up to 265 mg kg 1 in the soil. This is because N/P ratios and Munns, 1980; Eghball, 2000). Mineralization is of most manure types are narrower (e.g., 3:1) than the greatest when soil moisture is near field capacity and N/P uptake ratios of most crops (e.g., 6:1 for corn). declines with soil drying (Cassman and Munns, 1980). Therefore, N-based manure application provides P rates The variables that influence P release and availability need to be evaluated so that manure P availability in B. Eghball (deceased) and B.J.

Feasibility and costs of phosphorus application limits on 39 U.S. swine operations.

Concerns about manure P and water quality have prompted new regulations imposing P limits on land application of manure. Previous research established that P limits increase land needs for animal feeding operations. We evaluated the effect of N, annual P, and rotation P limits on the feasibility of manure management. A mechanistic model characterized manure management practices on 39 swine oper...

Effect of Anaerobic Digestion on Manure Characteristics for Phosphorus Precipitation from Swine Waste

Swine production facilities today are larger in size and are concentrated in smaller geographical areas than they were two decades ago. Additionally, there is an increasing trend to base manure land application rates on crop phosphorus requirements rather than crop nitrogen requirements alone. These factors have resulted in a need to find a feasible method for removing phosphorus from swine was...

Sorption of inorganic and total phosphorus from dairy and swine slurries to soil.

Understanding P sorption from animal manures is essential to formulate best management practices with regard to land application of manure from the standpoint of crop production and environmental quality. Little research has focused on the construction of P sorption isotherms where the P source is manure. The objectives of this study were to: (i) develop a procedure to characterize how inorgani...
