Growing conditions have been perfect over the last few weeks, so fertiliser has been going on ‘a plenty’ but have you a Nutrient Management plan (NMP) in place? Many businesses have signed up to nutrient planning as part of their Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI) agreement, and the Environment Agency is looking very closely at NMP’s when they are inspecting ...
Tianzhong Machinery has emerged as a leading supplier of manure separation systems, providing farmers with cutting-edge technology to revolutionize their manure management processes.Challenge of Manure ManagementManure is a valuable resource in agriculture, rich in nutrients that can significantly benefit soil health and crop ...
In the realm of agricultural and livestock farming, the responsible management of manure is of paramount importance. Manure, a valuable resource rich in organic matter and nutrients, can be a double-edged sword for farmers. ...
Manure can be a rich source of nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium, as well as trace nutrients. ...
The composting method of organic manure production is a process of mineral, humic and harmless degradation of organic matter in solid manure by microorganism under the condition of artificial control of water, carbon nitrogen ratio and ventilation. Composting is mainly divided into aerobic composting and anaerobic composting, which is mainly aerobic composting at ...
Maize cropped for fodder implies return of animal manures rich in nutrients. In addition, starter fertilization with mineral P is used in cold conditions for maize cropping. It was hypothesized that the use of the additional mineral P could be excluded by increased availability of the P applied by animal manures. In a growth chamber experiment we ...
The results emphasize the value of long-term experiments to reveal trends in soil fertility not apparent within a few years and the need for research in these environments to define 'critical concentrations' of plant-available P and K in soil for maintaining maximum crop yields. Results with manures show the risk of overfertilization and water pollution with N and P if inorganic ...
Composting is being increasingly employed for the recycling of nutrients in manure from the livestock industry. However, composting manure from animals fed antimicrobials has not been well characterized. In this study, compost windrows were prepared using manure collected from cattle (Bos Taurus L.) fed tylosin (TY), ...
In Exp. 1, liquid swine manure (LSM) was applied in fall or spring for two site years (A, B). ...
After 28 yr, soil organic carbon (SOC) declined by –0.25 g C kg–1 yr–1 and total nitrogen (TN) by –0.025 g N kg–1 yr–1 with balanced mineral fertilization (NPK, no manure), comparable to the control (no manure, no fertilizer). In addition, mean weight diameter (MWD) of water-stable aggregates was lower with balanced mineral fertilization than in the control. In ...
Coupling winter small grain cover crops (CC) with liquid manure injection may increase manure nutrient capture. The objectives of this research were to quantify manure injection effects using target swine (Sus scrofa) manure N rates of 112, 224, and 336 kg N ha–1 on CC plant density, fall and spring shoot ...
