Abstract:
SUMMARYMineralized soil nitrogen (N) is an important source of N for grassland production. Some soils can supply large quantities of plant-available N through mineralization of soil organic matter. Grass grown on such soils require less fertilizer N applications per unit yield. A reliable, accurate and user-friendly method to account for soil N supply potential across a large diversity of soils and growing conditions is needed to improve N management and N recommendations over time. In the current study, the effectiveness of chemical N tests and soil properties to predict soil N supply for grass uptake across 30 Irish soil types varying in N supply potential was investigated under controlled environmental conditions. The Illinois soil N test (ISNT) combined with soil C : N ratio provided a good estimate of soil N supply in soils with low residual mineral N. Total oxidized N (TON) had the largest impact on grass dry matter (DM) yield and N uptake across the 30 soil types, declining in its influence in later growth periods. This reflected the high initial mineral N levels in these soils, which declined over time. In the current study, a model with ISNT-N, C : N and TON (log TON) best explained variability in grass DM yield and N uptake. All three rapid chemical soil tests could be performed routinely on field samples to provide an estimate of soil N supply prior to making N fertilizer application decisions. It can be concluded that these soil tests, through their assessment of soil N supply potential, can be effective tools for N management on grassland; however, field studies are needed to evaluate this under more diverse growing conditions.

Abstract:
Phosphorus (P) is an essential plant nutrient routinely applied to soils as an agricultural fertiliser, frequently in non-renewable, inorganic forms. Finite reserves and growing demand for agricultural phosphorus mean alternative P resources need to be explored. Recycling-derived fertilisers (RDF) recovered from specific waste streams, using nutrient recovery technologies, have the potential to replace conventional phosphorus fertilisers used in agriculture. Healthy functioning soil microbial and nematode communities are essential players in maintaining soil health and nutrient status. Thus, it is important to assess the responses of these communities to RDF application. We compared soil microbial and nematode communities of conventional fertiliser and RDF treated soil, in the form of struvite and ash, using next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies in a phosphate-fertiliser replacement value (P-FRV) field trial. Bacterial and nematode communities displayed significant changes under the different P fertilisation treatments, while fungal communities were relatively unaffected. Bacterial diversity was higher among RDF treatments than conventional treatments, while nematode diversity was reduced by one ash treatment. Available potassium and phosphate were the main drivers of bacterial community changes when analysed by canonical correspondence analysis (CCA), while available phosphate alone was the driver of nematode community shifts. Of the RDF, struvite products yielded the highest crop biomass, maintained microbial diversity and were associated with the least disturbed nematode communities.

Abstract:
Abstract The Hybrid Soil Moisture Deficit (HSMD) model has been used for a wide range of applications, including modelling of grassland productivity and utilisation, assessment of agricultural management opportunities such as slurry spreading, predicting nutrient emissions to the environment and risks of pathogen transfer to water. In the decade since its publication, various ad hoc modifications have been developed and the recent publication of the Irish Soil Information System has facilitated improved assessment of the spatial soil moisture dynamics. In this short note, we formally present a new version of the model (HSMD2.0), which includes two new soil drainage classes, as well as an optional module to account for the topographic wetness index at any location. In addition, we present a new Indicative Soil Drainage Map for Ireland, based on the Irish Soil Classification system, developed as part of the Irish Soil Information System.

Abstract:
Phosphorus (P) is an essential element for grassland productivity, but P fertilizers are mined from finite resources of phosphate rock. As a result, there is growing interest in increasing the efficiency of P fertilizer !use in agriculture to ensure the future sustainability of food production. This project was designed to increase our knowledge on the behaviour of, and requirements of P in grassland soils. The results which include data from a long-term field experiment showed that a sustained annual application of 15 kg P ha-1 y(l was required for maximum herbage yield whilst seasonal trends indicated that P concentration in herbage was lowest during the summer months. Results from a field experiment which examined the effects of N, P and lime on two sites with contrasting soil fertility levels found a comparable response to nitrogen and P on the herbage yield while soil P levels had a strong influence on herbage P concentration. A soil incubation experiment carried out on a range of different Irish soils showed that lime plays an important role in increasing the availability of soil P and fertilizer P. In the same range of soils the examination of soil organic P was investigated and the results highlight the variation that exists in organic P species in Irish soils. Overall the results from these experiments suggests that as the future availability of P fertilizer becomes uncertain, a greater emphasis on soil specific fertilizer P guidelines will be required to maximise P efficiency in grasslands. This project will underpin the rationale and provide initial results which will aid the future implementation of a more soil specific P fertilizer guidelines in Ireland. Furthermore maintaining soil P fertility is a crucial if agriculture is to achieve the productivity targets set by a growing world population.
