In unsaline loam soil, a laboratory experiment was undertaken studying the effect of using diluted saline water from Karoon lake at Fayoum Governorate, on transformations and subsequent nitrification of two ammoniacal fertilizers, namely (NH4)2SO4 and urea, in the presence or absence of natural organic amendments, namely clover and wheat straw. Ammonification and nitrification of both fertilize...

in order to study the effect of chemical and biological fertilizers on silage corn under different plant densities, a split plot experiment was carried out in a randomized completely block design with three replicates in south western iran. the main plot included nitrogen fertilizer treatment at three levels (n1: with out chemical and organic fertilizers, n2: 75% chemical fertilizer + 100% orga...

Non-point source (NPS) pollution has been increasingly serious in China since the 1990s. The increases of agricultural NPS pollution in China is evaluated for the period 2000-2008 by surveying the literature on water and soil pollution from fertilizers and pesticides, and assessing the surplus nitrogen balance within provinces. The main causes for NPS pollution were excessive inputs of nitrogen...

a field investigation was conducted to evaluate the effect of n and k fertilizers on qualitative and quantitative changes of potato tubers during five months of storage. this study was carried out in three replications at five levels (0, 60, 120, 180 and 240 kg/ha) of nitrogen and three levels (0, 75 and 150 kg/ha) of potassium fertilizer during 2004-2006. measurements were recorded monthly. th...

This chapter considers the emissions of ammonia (NH3), nitrous oxide (N2O), other oxides of nitrogen (NOx), carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOCs) from agricultural soils to which nitrogen (N)-containing fertilizers are applied. For NH3, emissions following application of animal manures to land are considered in SNAP code 100900, Manure Manageme...

Organic fertilizers play a significant role in organic systems and sustainable soil management. In general, organic fertilizers increase soil fertilization so can reduce the negative effects of the excessive use of chemical fertilizers and synthetic man-made fertilizers. This study was carried out in the Medicinal Plants Farm of Shahid Bakeri Higher Education Center of Miandoab during summer 20...
