The objective of this work was to determine the response of corn to liquid hog manure surface applied at rates of 28, 56 and 112 tonnes/ha. In greenhouse trials, yield of corn grown for 4 wk on St. Jude loamy sand was not affected by manure application. On Kamouraska silty clay, only manure applied at a rate of 112 tonnes/ha increased corn yield, as compared to the non-treated control. Corn response on Janvier sandy clay loam improved with increasing rate of manure application up to 56 tonnes/ha. Application of 112 tonnes/ha (325 kg N/ha) manure increased N content of corn and had a significant residual effect as noted by the high yield obtained at the second harvest. In a 2-yr field experiment on Kamouraska soil, corn yield was significantly higher at 112 tonnes/ha (avg 432 kg N/ha) than chemical fertilizer application at 150 kg N/ha, and manure-treated soil contained more P, Ca and Mg after the first year. Nutrient uptake by corn increased with amount of manure applied. However, corn whole plant composition was not affected by rate of manure application. N recovery was higher from manure at 28 or 56 tonnes/ha than from a chemical fertilizer (150 kg N/ha, 65.5 kg P/ha and 125 kg K/ha). At the rates applied, the liquid hog manure did not result in reduced corn yield.Key words: Corn yield, hog manure, nutrient uptake, silage corn

Papermill Sludge

Combined primary/secondary papermill sludge (PS) is rich in N and may potentially be used as a N source for horticultural crops. A 3-yr experiment was conducted to determine the effects of PS application on crop yields, N uptake and N recovery. The PS was applied in 1996 on a Bedford silty clay (Humic Gleysol) cropped to winter cabbage (Brassica oleracea var capitata L. 'Bartolo') at 0, 8, 16, 32, and 64 Mg ha-1 (dry basis). In 1997, PS was applied at 44% of the 1996 rates to the same plots and cropped to sweet corn (Zea mays L. 'Delectable'). No PS was applied in 1998 to evaluate residual effects on corn. Treatments with ammonium nitrate (AN) at 50, 100 and 200% of N fertiliser recommendations were included each year as a reference for crop response. The PS had a C:N ratio of 42:1 in 1996 and of 28:1 in 1997. About 29% of the total N in PS was inorganic. Cabbage and corn marketable yields and N uptake increased with increasing amounts of PS applied. AN supplemented with PS further increased cabbage yields. Based on the N fertiliser replacement value, the N efficiency coefficient of PS was 44% in the first year. A N residual effect of the PS applied in 1996 was observed on the corn yield in 1997. The two PS applications also had a very significant residual effect on corn yield in the third year, although supplemental AN at 150 kg N ha-1 tended to further increase yields. The apparent total N recovery by the three crops was similar for PS and AN (i.e., 34 vs. 38%). The apparent recovery of organic N from PS decreased with increasing rates of application from 46 to 25%. These results suggest that PS is an effective source of N for crops and that significant residual N effects should be considered when estimating the N needs of subsequent crops.

Manure-N availability must be known in order to design application practices that maximize the nutrient value of the manure while minimizing adverse environmental impacts. This study determined the effect of time and rate of liquid manure application on silage corn yield and N utilization, and residual soil nitrate at harvest, in south coastal British Columbia. Liquid dairy or liquid hog manure was applied at target rates of 0, 175, 350 or 525 kg N ha−1, with or without addition of 100 kg N ha−1 as inorganic fertilizer, at two sites in each of 2 yr. Time of liquid-dairy-manure application was also tested at two sites in each of 2 yr with N-application treatments of: 600 kg N ha−1 as manure applied in spring; 600 kg N ha−1 as manure applied in fall; 300 kg N ha−1 as manure applied in each of spring and fall; 200 kg N ha−1 applied as inorganic fertilizer in spring; 300 kg N ha−1 as manure plus 100 kg N ha−1 as inorganic fertilizer applied in spring; and a control that received no applied N. Fall-applied manure did not increase corn yield or N uptake in the following growing season. At all sites, maximum yield was attained using manure only. Selection of proper spring application rates for manure and inorganic fertilizer were found to be equally important in minimizing residual soil nitrate at harvest. Apparent recovery of applied N in the crop ranged from 0 to 33% for manure and from 18 to 93% for inorganic fertilizer. Key words: N recovery, manure management

Greenhouse Study

The full dependency on chemical fertilizers in oil palm plantation poses an enormous threat to the ecosystem through the degradation of soil and water quality through leaching to the groundwater and contaminating the river. A greenhouse study was conducted to test the effect of combinations of biofertilizers with chemical fertilizer focusing on the soil fertility, nutrient uptake, and the growth performance of oil palms seedlings. Soils used were histosol, spodosol, oxisol, and ultisol. The three treatments were T1: 100% chemical fertilizer (NPK 12:12:17), T2: 70% chemical fertilizer + 30% biofertilizer A (CF + BFA), and T3: 70% + 30% biofertilizer B (CF + BFB). T2 and T3, respectively increased the growth of oil palm seedlings and soil nutrient status but seedlings in oxisol and ultisol under T3 had the highest in almost all parameters due to the abundance of more efficient PGPR. The height of seedlings in ultisol under T3 was 22% and 17% more than T2 and T1 respectively, with enhanced girth size, chlorophyll content, with improved nutrient uptake by the seedlings. Histosol across all treatments has a high macronutrient content suggesting that the rate of chemical fertilizer application should be revised when planting using the particular soil. With the reduction of chemical fertilizer by 25%, the combined treatment with biofertilizers could enhance the growth of the oil palm seedlings and soil nutrient properties regardless of the soil orders.

Manure phosphorus (P) accumulation in soils is of environmental concern. The objectives were to determine P concentrations and fate in soils following 119 years of manure and 89 years of chemical fertilizer application. The recovery and distribution of P were evaluated for five years in soils from the untreated check, and soils amended with manure, fertilizer-P, or NPK. Total P concentrations were significantly higher in fertilizer-treated surface soils, compared to manure application. Treated plots had significantly higher P concentrations than the check. Virtually all of the added P was accounted for, either remaining in the soil or harvested in grains. Over 50% of fertilizer-P and about 38% of manure-P were found in the top 15 cm of the soil. A majority (81–99%) of the added fertilizer-P was found in the top 30 cm, while about 40% of manure-P leached down to the 30–90 cm level of the soil profile. Following 119 years of moderate application, manure-P did not reach deeper than 90 cm, suggesting that leaching to groundwater is not a concern at this site. Preserving P in the lower soil profile could enhance the potential for plant uptake.

Manure Application

Although much of the manure in Canada is surface applied to forages, little research exists evaluating time of year (Time) and rate (Rate) of its application on forage yield and nutrient uptake. Field trials (10 yr) on two soils (sandy loam upland and silty clay loam dykeland) investigated this. Experimental arrangement was a factorial [Time (spring, summer, early and late fall manure applications)] plus control [spring applied ammonium nitrate fertilizer (ANF)] in a Latinized split plot. ANF at 0, 25, 50, 100 and 200 kg N ha-1; 0, 75, 150, and 300 as semi-solid beef (SSM) and 150 kg N ha-1 as liquid dairy manure (LDM), constituted respective splits. The Time X Rate interaction, later in the trial on the upland soil, showed higher yields and nutrient uptakes with fall manure application. There was little interaction on the dykeland soil; summer application resulted in higher yields at times. For both soils, optimal long-term application rate of SSM was approximately 150 kg N ha-1 while that of ANF was approximately 100 kg N ha-1. Inherent fertility of dykelands resulted in flatter responses to manure addition. Negligible and significant residual N occurred with fertilizer and manure, respectively. Nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, manganese, copper, zinc and boron uptake was due to amendment impact on yield. Recommended is 150 kg N ha-1 of SSM or LDM applied in fall and summer to Maritime grasslands grown on upland and dykeland soils, respectively. Yield differences may not warrant producers adjusting timing of in-season manure application.

An experiment was conducted at BINA (Bangladesh Institute of Nuclear Agriculture) substation, Satkhira on slightly calcareous silty clay soil during the boro season of 2009-2010 to investigate the effects of different combinations of inorganic fertilizers in order to achieve sustainable high yield goal in the STL-655 rice mutant cultivar. The six treatment combinations were: T1 (absolute control), T2 (N60 P20 K40 S10 Zn1), T3 (N80 P25 K50 S15 Zn1.5), T4 (N100 P30 K60 S20 Zn2), T5 (N120 P35 K70 S25 Zn3) and T6 (N140 P40 K80 S30 Zn4) that was laid out in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications having per plot size was 5m x 4m. The results revealed that grain and straw yields of STL-655 rice mutant responded significantly with the different treatment combinations. The highest grain (3.95 t/ha) and straw yield (7.38 t/ha) was obtained in T6 (Soil test basis high yield goal) treatment, which was significantly higher than all other treatments. The treatment T6 (N140 P40 K80 S30 Zn4) caused an increase of 60% grain yield and 27% higher straw yield over the control. Nutrient uptake of N, P, K and S by grain of boro rice (STL-655 rice mutant) varied from 25.14 to 48.02, 5.40 to 8.14, 11.76 to 23.02 and 4.15 to 7.09 kg/ha, respectively. The N, P, K and S uptake by straw of boro rice (STL-655 rice mutant) varied from 20.36 to 35.85, 5.47 to 11.05, 59.01 to 159.6 and 9.54 to 12.97 kg/ha, respectively.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jesnr.v4i2.10139  J.

A two-year field study was conducted on a coarse textured soil in Manitoba, Canada, to investigate the effects of liquid hog manure (LHM) and chemical fertilizer application on barley (2005) and red spring wheat (2006) yields, crop nutrient uptake and nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) movement to the environment. The treatments were LHM applied at two rates as 22000 L ha-1 (2500 gal ac-1, abbreviated as M2500) and 43000 L ha-1 (5000 gal ac-1, abbreviated as M5000) and two rates of chemical fertilizer to match total N and P in LHM treatments, F2500 and F5000, along with an unamended control. The M5000 and M2500 treatments showed similar grain yield and N and P uptake. However, M5000 and M2500 significantly increased grain yield by 67% and 78%, respectively, compared to the control in 2005. In 2006, wheat grain yields from M2500 and M5000 were 71% and 86% greater than the control. In 2005, leachate NO3-N concentrations and leaching loads were higher with chemical fertilizers than M2500. In 2005, the apparent recovery of applied N as leachate was 35% and 23% in F5000 and F2500 treatments, whereas it was 6% and 7% of applied N in M5000 and M2500 plots, respectively. However, the application of M5000 resulted in P accumulation near the surface and may increase the potential risk of P loss with runoff. Our results show that applying LHM at moderate rates (M2500) may ensure desirable crop yields comparable to higher rates of nutrient application with minimal potential losses relative to higher rates.

A field trial was conducted to validate some fertilizer application approaches for Boro-Green manure (GM) -T. Aman cropping system at the Bangladesh Rice Research Institute (BRRI) Farm, Gazipur (AEZ-28: high land) during the period from Boro 1999-2000 to T. Arnan 2000. Five different application approaches of inorganic and organic fertilizers along with their residual values were evaluated. A positive effect of GM on the yield of T. Aman rice was observed. Application of cowdung (CD) @ 6 t/ha (at 15 % moisture) along with integrated plant nutrient system (IPNS) based chemical fertilizer in Boro season followed by green manuring with dhaincha (in Kharif-l season) and then growing T. Aman rice (in Kharif-ll season) with reduced doses of chemical fertilizer (60% N, 50% P, 50% K, and 50% S) substantially increased grain yield and narrowed down the N, P, and K balance in soil. This fertilizer application approach may be practiced for sustainable crop production. No appreciable yield loss in T. Arnan rice (2nd crop) occurred due to the application of reduced doses of P, K, S, and Zn indicating the beneficial residual effect of fertilizer applied to the first crop (Boro rice) of the cropping pattern. The N uptake was in excess of the N added as fertilizer. An improved balance of P, S, and Zn was observed. But the K balance was negative. However, application of cowdung and incorporation of dhaincha slightly improved the K balance of the soil. The highest gross return of Tk. 86,270 was obtained with the above practice (treatment T4)Key Words: Chemical fertilizer; application; wet land rice.DOI: 10.3329/bjar.v34i1.5747Bangladesh J. Agril.

Chemical fertilizer has been excessively used for high yield of citrus around the world, especially in China; meanwhile, it deteriorates the citrus orchard soil environment. To resolve the conflict, the use of organic fertilizer provides a promising solution. However, the data about organic fertilizer used in citrus orchard is rarely available. Here, four treatments including CK (no fertilizer), CF (chemical fertilizer), OF + CF (chemical fertilizer reduction combined with organic fertilizer; application of N, P2O5, K2O fertilizer and organic fertilizer is 0.564, 0.236, 0.336 and 10 kg/plant), and BF + CF (chemical fertilizer reduction combined with bioorganic fertilizer; application of N, P2O5, K2O fertilizer and bioorganic fertilizer is 0.508, 0.320, 0.310 and 10 kg/plant) were performed in a ‘Ponkan’ (Citrus reticulata Blanco) orchard to evaluate the effect of organic fertilizer on citrus yield, growth, soil properties etc. when nutrients of fertilizer of each treatment were equal except CK. The data obtained in 2019 and 2020 showed that both OF + CF and BF + CF were beneficial to improve soil fertility (soil physicochemical and microbe properties) and citrus growth physiology (growth, nutrient and photosynthesis), alleviate NO3−-N leaching, and promote yields. Comprehensive evaluation indicated that BF + CF was more effective than OF + CF. Together, organic fertilizer has the potential to substitute partial chemical fertilizer with improvement in soil properties, growth physiology, and yield of citrus.
