A field study was taken up to evaluate the influence of organic sources nutrients and inorganic fertility levels in aerobic rice during kharif 2017 2018 at Indian Institute Rice Research, Rajendra Nagar, Hyderabad, Telangana. The experiment laid out split plot design with three replications. treatment comprised M1: Neem leaf manure 6 t ha-1; M2: Vermicompost 2 M3: Goat 5 M4: Microbial consortia...

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...

in order to investigate the effects of high corm planting density and applying manure on flower and corm yields of saffron (crocus sativus l.), a field experiment was conducted at research station, faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran, during growing season of 2010-2011. a completely randomized block design with three replications and 20 treatments was used. the experime...

Nutrient management plans are used to reduce non-point source pollution from animal operations. These plans require manure analysis and use indices to determine nutrient availability. This study evaluated a modified method for determining nitrogen fractions in swine slurry stored under slatted floors, calculating plant available nitrogen, and characterizing nitrogen fractions by holding pit dep...

Rahman, S., Chen, Y., Zhang, Q. and Lobb, D. 2005. Evaluation methods on manure exposure from liquid manure injection tools. Canadian Biosystems Engineering/Le génie des biosystèmes au Canada 47: 6.9 6.16. Laboratory and field studies were conducted to explore evaluation methods on manure exposure (refer as to manure being not covered by soil, but exposed to the air) for liquid manure injection...

Ammonia emission from animal production is a major environmental problem and has impacts on the animal health and working environment inside production houses. Ammonia is formed in manure by the enzymatic degradation of urinary urea and catalyzed by urease that is present in feces. We have determined and compared the urease activity in feces and manure (a urine and feces mixture) from pigs and ...

Animal manure is an important source of N for crop production. Part of the manure N is bound in organic compounds and must be mineralised in the soil before it can be utilised by plants. The composition of animal manure is influenced by the diet fed to the animal. We have studied the effects of pig and dairy cattle feed composition on the turnover and potential utilisation of manure N. Dairy co...

to study the effect of three soil fertilizing systems (chemical, organic, and integrated) on forage yield and quality of globe artichoke (cynara scolymus) an experiment was conducted using a randomized complete block design (rcbd) of four replications at the research farm of college of agriculture, university of tehran, karaj, iran in 2006. the treatments included 5 levels of chemical fertilize...

This study evaluated feeding 0 and 40% wet distillers grains with solubles (WDGS) diets to cattle and the effects on feedlot manure collected from soil-based pens and incubated for 28 d. Steers (n = 603; 261 +/- 32 kg) were fed in eight pens (15 x 150 m) of 75 to 77 steers per pen. Two consecutive experiments were conducted with WDGS--one in which the corn source fed with WDGS was high-moisture...

Liquid animal manure and its management contributes to environmental problems such as, global warming, acidification, and eutrophication. To address these environmental issues and their related costs manure processing technologies were developed. The objective here was to assess the environmental consequences of a new manure processing technology that separates manure into a solid and liquid fr...
