Abstract:
Animal manures are recognized as valuable sources of plant nutrients in cropping systems and also play a role in soil improvement through the input of organic matter. Using recent research examples from Saskatchewan and Colorado, this paper covers beneficial management practices for effective recycling of manure nutrients applicable to the Great Plains region of North America. Challenges in using animal manures as fertilizers include low nutrient content per unit weight, variability and availability of nutrient content, and a balance of available nutrients that often does not meet the relative nutrient requirements of the crop. Examples of imbalances that may arise requiring special management considerations include low available N content relative to available P for many solid manures, and low available S relative to N for some liquid manures. Application decisions are best supported by manure and soil analyses, with nutrient balance issues addressed by rate adjustments and the addition of supplemental commercial fertilizer to avoid deficiency or loading of specific nutrients. Placement of manure into the soil by injection or incorporation is desirable in that nutrient losses by volatilization and runoff are reduced and crop recovery is increased. Balancing the rate of nutrient application with crop requirement and removal over time is key to avoiding nutrient loading on soils receiving repeated applications of manure. Key words: Manure management, nutrient cycling, beneficial management practices, Great Plains

Abstract:
Abstract. During the twentieth century, U.S. agriculture strived to achieve increased food production in order to satisfy both local and export demands. In many cases, this led to increased farm sizes and an operational separation of crop and livestock production. The trend of increasing centralization and industrialization of agriculture, specifically animal agriculture, has resulted in the concentration of waste products associated with animal production (manures and wash-down water) over relatively small geographic areas that are spatially segregated from crop production areas. Because the distance that manure can be economically hauled for land application has practical limits, the public is concerned that this spatial separation of crop and animal production areas could lead to over-application of manures near animal feeding facilities, and thus potentially increase the transport of nutrients to ground and surface waters. An aggregated analysis (statewide) of crop and animal production in Iowa suggests that about 30% to 40% of current nitrogen and phosphorus requirements for crop production could be supplied from manures and litters generated from livestock production, while about 50% of potassium requirements could be supplied. However, neither livestock nor crop production in Iowa is uniformly distributed across all counties. This unequal distribution suggests that a more disaggregated analysis of crop nutrient requirements and manure nutrient supply is necessary to estimate the risks of excess nutrient loss to the environment. Thus, we evaluated crop nutrient demand and manure and litter production at the county level to determine if excess manure generation is of concern and to locate areas where additional manures could be used. Results showed that several counties are becoming manure rich, but most locations maintain sufficient capacity to use manure nutrients effectively.

Abstract:
This study aims to assess the decomposition of manure biodegraded by fly larvae and the nutrient mineralization rates to understand the efficiency of the biodegraded manures for further use as soil amendment. A litter bag experiment was carried out over 75 d in an Acrisol in Benin using poultry manure, pig manure, mixture of poultry and sheep manure, mixture of poultry and cow manure, and mixture of poultry and pig manure, biodegraded by Musca domestica larvae. Nutrients content in the manures during the different stages of decomposition was analyzed. The mono-component exponential model Yt = Y0 × e−kt best described the manure decomposition and nutrients mineralization. The manures decomposed fast in the soil, and their nutrients were released fast in the poultry manure, the mixture of poultry and pig manure, and the mixture of poultry and cow manure. Nutrient mineralization increased in the order of P < N < K or N < P < K. Biodegradation of animal manures by fly larvae produced high-quality organic fertilizer through fast N and P release. This could aid in reducing the quantities of these elements applied as mineral fertilizer by farmers for sustaining agricultural soil productivity.

Abstract:
Knowledge of manure composition is important for farm nutrient management, either if importing manure onto a farm or transferring nutrients around the farm in ‘home produced’ manures. Many factors affect the nutrient content of the manure ready to spread onto the land (Smith & Frost, 2000): dietary input and quality, nutrient losses during housing and storage and additions of bedding material and/or water. There are many reports of average values for manures from conventionally raised livestock (e.g. Anon., 2000 for the U.K.). However, there are less data available for manures produced on organic holdings. It is probable that composition will differ from conventionally produced manures because of differences in diet and manure storage methods (composting and/or long-term storage). Therefore, we aimed to test this under U.K. conditions by analysing cattle manures from organic holdings for comparison with data on conventionally produced manures.

Abstract:
Abstract Agriculture has had a tremendous impact on soil nutrients around the world. In some regions, soil nutrients are depleted because of low initial soil fertility or excessive nutrient removals through intense land use relative to nutrient additions. In other regions, application of chemical fertilizers and manure has led to an accumulation of nutrients and subsequent water quality problems. Understanding the current level and spatial patterns of fertilizer and manure inputs would greatly improve the ability to identify areas that might be sensitive to aquatic eutrophication or to nutrient depletion. The authors calculated spatially explicit fertilizer inputs of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) by fusing national-level statistics on fertilizer use with global maps of harvested area for 175 crops. They also calculated spatially explicit manure inputs of N and P by fusing global maps of animal density and international data on manure production and nutrient content. Significantly higher application rates were found for both fertilizers and manures in the Northern Hemisphere, with maxima centered on areas with intensive cropland and high densities of livestock. Furthermore, nutrient use is confined to a few major hot spots, with approximately 10% of the treated land receiving over 50% of the use of both fertilizers and manures. The authors’ new spatial disaggregation of the rich International Fertilizer Industry Association (IFA) fertilizer-use dataset will provide new and interesting avenues to explore the impact of anthropogenic activity on ecosystems at the global scale and may also have implications for policies designed to improve soil quality or reduce nutrient runoff.

Abstract:
Sesamum alatum Thonn. is one of the less-popular but nutritious leafy vegetables that is still collected from the wild or as weeds among crops in South Africa. The plant is also used in medicines and cosmetics in Africa and elsewhere. Despite its importance, the cultivation of S. alatum under different agronomic systems for improved harvestable yield and nutrient content is still lacking. The study aimed to determine the response of S. alatum nutrient content to the application of poultry and goat manures. Plants were grown in pots under rain-fed shade cloth conditions, with poultry and goat manures applied at 0, 1, 2, and 3 t ha–1 each, and they were laid in a completely randomized design. Shoot tips were harvested at 60 days after planting and analyzed for nutrient content. Shoots contained better nutrients in S. alatum plants grown during the first than the second season, with minor exceptions. Poultry and goat manure application led to an increase in Ca, Mg, K, P, and micro-nutrients. Goat manure had potential to increase the nutrient content in S. alatum than poultry manure, although differences were not substantial. Therefore, both manures could be equally used to improve nutrient content of S. alatum.

Abstract:
A good understanding of nutrient release from manure or compost after application through mineralization is important to assure meeting the nutrient demand of crops, to secure timely fertilizer application and to enhance nutrient use efficiency. The current study was done to evaluate phosphorus (P) and sulphur (S) release patterns from different types of manures viz. cow dung, cow dung slurry, tricho-compost, vermicompost, poultry manure, poultry manure slurry and mungbean residues. The mineralization study was performed under aerobic (field capacity) and anaerobic (waterlogging) conditions for 180 days at 25 ± 1 °C in the laboratory. The release of P and S showed the highest values within 75–180 and 75–150 days, respectively, and was always higher in aerobic conditions than in anaerobic conditions. The first-order kinetic cumulative model was a good fit for mineralization, which was significantly influenced by manure type, soil moisture level and incubation period. Poultry manure slurry exerted the highest P and S release under both moisture conditions. Both slurries showed higher potential mineralization, with a lower rate constant for these elements compared to that in their manure states. Hence, appropriate manures should be chosen and applied in the proper quantity to provide exact amounts of nutrients, to increase crops nutrient use efficiency and to formulate correct fertilizer recommendations.

Abstract:
Abstract. The nutrient profile in stored manure can be highly variable due to the solids building up at the bottom of the storage over time as unagitated manure is removed. This variability can lead to under- or over-application of nutrients potentially reducing crop yields or increasing nutrient losses, respectively. Agitation of stored manure is a common practice to re-suspend solids providing a more uniform nutrient consistency for application. This study explores the solids and nutrient variability in stored dairy manure after agitation and the relationship between the number of samples and the quality of the nutrient content estimate. A total of 16 dairy facilities across Wisconsin were sampled in the study. Samples were taken during agitation and analyzed for total solids (TS), total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN), total ammonia nitrogen (TAN), total phosphorus (TP), total potassium (TK), and microminerals. Overall, TKN, TAN, and TP contents were more uniform than TS. The mean concentrations (wet basis) from the 16 farms range from 2.45% to 15.28% for TS, 0.17% to 0.53% for TKN, 0.01% to 0.33 for TAN, 0.02 to 0.06 for TP, and 0.11% to 0.31% for TK. This range is mostly attributed to the between-farms variability in manure nutrient content. In addition, 54% of the total variation in the TS content was attributable to within-farm sample variability. These results show that TS was variable on farms whereas TKN, TAN, and TP were variable between farms. A random resampling analysis showed that three samples generate a mean between 20% to 30% of the true experimental mean for TKN and TAN whereas nine samples are required to be in this range for TP. Results show that the improvement achieved by adding more samples than 11 is less than 10%. Keywords: Dairy manure, Manure agitation, Nutrients, Nutrient variability, Sample size.

Abstract:
AbstractLivestock production and manure handling decisions often have been treated in the literature as separate enterprises. Policymakers, too, have ignored the interactive nature of manure management by focusing on land application for nutrient disposal. This study outlines a systems approach to describe the interrelated decisions producers face, using examples from North Carolina and Iowa that show how producers' attitudes toward manure management lead them to handle manure differently in different regions. In North Carolina, nutrients in manure are “not wanted.” There are economic incentives to treat manure, thus reducing its nutrient content, and to apply it on as little land as possible. In Iowa, nutrients are “not wasted.” Producers conserve the nutrients in manure and use them more fully, applying manure to higher value crops such as corn. Policies that influence manure management can be made more effective by accounting for the differences in producers' incentives to waste or want the nutrients.

Abstract:
Following the surface application of different fertiliser treatments (cattle slurry, cattle manure, and inorganic fertiliser) to grassed hillslopes, the transport of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) was monitored on controlled plots. The plots measured 30 m by 5 m, the lower 10 m acting as an untreated buffer zone, in order to examine the effect of following current codes of practice when applying fertilisers (MAFF and WOAD, 1991). Surface and sub-surface nutrient flow pathways were monitored, by sampling water from the saturated and unsaturated zones of the soil profile, and from surface runoff. Sub-surface flow was dominated by N03--N. However, concentrations of this N species were relatively low (3-6 mg 1-1), and differences between treatments and the control were not significant. Generally, this indicated immobilisation of N species and P fractions, outputs in plant uptake and possibly to atmosphere (denitrification). For surface runoff, concentrations of N and P from treated plots were significantly higher than those from the control. N was largely present as organic-N and NH4+-N for the slurry and manure (15 mg 1-1 and 5 mg 1-1 respectively), and as NH4+-N and N03--N for the inorganic fertiliser (20 mg 1-1 in both cases). P was largely present as P04--P (0.5 mg 1-1 for manure and slurry, 10 mg 1-1 for inorganic fertiliser), except for the manure treatment, where some 75 % of the total was organic-P. The 10 m buffer was effective in reducing the delivery of N and P in surface runoff, differences between the treatments and the control being rendered insignificant. This result was qualified in terms of the ratio of the buffer area to the treated area and the relatively low surface loads of N and P observed. N and P transport was then examined under less controlled conditions at the field to headwater catchment scale (4-18 ha). Sub-surface throughflow was associated with similar concentrations of N03--N (3-8 mg 1-1) and very low concentrations of P04--P (0.03-0.1 mg 1-1). These concentrations appeared to vary more in relation to seasonal changes in the level of discharge from the catchment than to changes in land-use, which implied that N and P in sub-surface throughflow was transport rather than supply limited. This was in broad agreement with observations made at the plot scale. At this larger scale, fluctuations in the concentrations of NH4+-N and P04--P occurred during rainfall events in response to what was probably the short-term occurrence of surface runoff from partial source areas of reduced infiltration capacity or variable source areas of saturation. These short-term fluctuations implied variations in topography and the distribution of surface derived N and P at the catchment scale. There was evidence of the occurrence of preferential flow during field experiments at both scales, which had important implications for the timing and magnitude of N and P transport. Finally, a functional and semi-distributed mathematical model was constructed to operate at the headwater catchment scale, and the effect of spatial variability in the interaction between land-use and topography on the transport of N and P was considered further.

Abstract:
Considerable changes have occurred in environmental regulations in recent years, only one of which is the requirement of stand alone heifer operations and feedlots to carry environmental permits. While growth of heifers is a widely researched topic, publications concerning nutrient utilization, partitioning, and excretion are scarce and are becoming necessary. That combined with the fact that feeding programs for heifers are highly variable from region to region and even from farm to farm indicated the need to examine the effects of diet on nutrient utilization. Therefore, the objective of this work was to evaluate how differences in levels of dietary protein and energy will affect growth and nutrient utilization in heifers from birth to calving. Two projects were conducted, one in 20 month old bred heifers where forage level in the diet was altered to provide the required nutrients in less feed and one in young calves where energy and protein content of the milk replacer was altered. Three diets were fed to 18 (n=6), 20 month old heifers who were in late gestation; the first was the high forage (HF) ration which was 90.7% forage and 9.3% concentrate, the second was a by-product (BP) ration which was designed to have the same level of fiber as the HF ration, however soybean hulls and cottonseed hulls were added at the sacrifice of the grain mix which increased the fiber content; the last ration was the low forage (LF) which was 54.7% concentrate and 45.3% forage and was fed at ~89% of the ad libitum intake of heifers fed the HF ration. Heifers fed the HF ration had greater fecal excretion compared to those fed LF, however heifers fed the LF ration exceeded the heifers fed HF and BP by 4.5 and 2.5 times, respectively, in urine volume excretion (40.2 vs. 8.9 and 16.9 kg/d, respectively). Although total N excretion (kg/d) was not different, heifers fed the LF ration tended to partition more N to urine than to feces. Phosphorus excretion in the feces was not different, however heifers fed HF and BP tended to have greater fecal P (P < 0.06). Urinary P excretion was less in heifers fed HF and BP compared to LF, however these heifers were excreting as much urinary P as a lactating cow. Calves were purchased from a commercial dairy at 3 d old (± 1d) and transported to the VT Dairy Center. They remained on study until 63 d when they were harvested for body composition. Four treatment diets were fed; a control milk replacer (24/17; 24% CP, 17% Fat), a high protein, low fat (32/17; 32% CP, 17% Fat), a high protein, high fat (31/24, 31% CP, 24% fat), and that same 31/24 milk replacer fed at 1460 g/d powder (31/24+). Calves were offered a 20% cottonseed hull starter at 1 d after arrival to the VT Dairy Center. Calves fed 24/17 consumed more starter than those fed the other milk replacers and therefore had a lower apparent digestibility and greater fecal excretion. Fecal N excretion was not different, although calves fed 24/17 tended to have greater fecal N excretion. Urinary N excretion was higher in calves fed 31/24+ compared to those fed 31/24. Total N excretion and N retention were not different. Empty body weight (EBW) gain was greater in calves fed 31/24+ compared to 31/24, however those same calves also had a higher percent of EBW as fat. Calves fed 32/17 had the most lean gain (in the form of N gain) compared to those fed extra energy (31/24) and also had a higher N as a percent of EBW. Limit feeding Holstein heifers late in gestation did not reduce nutrient excretion, however, more digestible nutrients were available to the heifer and fetus. Heifers in late gestation are likely over fed P and therefore excrete nearly everything they consume which has negative implications for nutrient management planning. Calves fed a low protein, low fat milk replacer did not grow as well as calves fed higher protein. Nitrogen retention and CP gain were higher when protein was at least 31% and fat was at least 17%. Feeding fat over 17% only increased fat gain and not CP gain. Overall, paying for extra nutrients in bred heifer diets seemed to be beneficial, however, feeding above 31% CP and 17% fat increased nutrient loss to the environment.

The production of renewable energy and fertilizer, through anaerobic biodegradation (AnBio) of waste from pig farming, presents itself as a strategic solution to minimize the negative effects associated with the large volume of manure generated in a small production space. However, further studies should be conducted to improve the understanding on the process and propose improvements. In this sense, this work was divided into three stages. In the first stage, a study was conducted to evaluate the changes that occur in organic matter and in organic and inorganic forms of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) of the solid fraction of pig manure (PM) using anaerobic bench-top reactors as a function of seven hydraulic retention times (7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42 and 49 days of biodegradation) and compared with the raw manure. In the second stage, we developed a study of anaerobic co-digestion, in a semi-continuous reactor, using the PM and the industrial waste of tomato processing (WTP) at different mixing ratios, to improve the performance of digestion and establish the best ratio of the two substrates for the production of biogas and methane. The following proportions were used (% PM + % WTP): 10% + 90%, 20% + 80%, 30% + 70%, 50% + 50% and 40% + 60%. In the third stage, there was an innovative study to recover the N present in the digestate generated after AnBio, using semipermeable membranes made of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) submerged in the material. This system consists of forcing the volatilization of N present in the digestate in the form of NH3 and then recover it in an acid solution of 1N H2SO4 flowing through the inside of the PTFE membrane. The N is recovered as the ammonium ion (NH4+), with potential for being used as fertilizer. Besides the digestate, raw pig manure (RPM) was used to compare the N recovery potential of both materials. The accumulation of the NH4+ formed was determined at nine sampling times (0, 7, 20, 30, 44, 54, 70, 79 and 93 hours). Based on the results obtained in the first stage, it was concluded that, during the digestion process, the organic matter of higher lability, represented by the carbon of the fulvic acid fraction and carbon oxidizable with 2.5 mL of H2SO4, was partially consumed, promoting the accumulation of recalcitrant organic matter at the end of the process. The contents of organic N and NH4+ reduced respectively by 45.2% and 54.2%, compared with their initial contents in the RPM, probably due to loss by volatilization. The P content reduced by 41.25% in relation to the initial content, due to the chemical precipitation of the inorganic fraction extractable in water with metallic cations within the reactor. In the case of co-digestion, increasing PM proportion to up to 30% of the feed mixture led to the maximum daily production of biogas (175 L) and the largest proportion of methane (60%). Amounts above 30% of manure in the mixture reduced biogas and methane production due to the increase of free NH3 concentration (272 mg L-1), which is toxic to most methanogens. As regards the recovery of N using PTFE membranes, it was observed that the recovery efficiency of the digestate was 12% higher compared with that observed in the RPM. Quantitatively, 4555 mg NH4+ could be recovered from the digestate in 93 hours of experiment, which can be used later as a source of N to agricultural crops.
A produÃÃo de energia renovÃvel e fertilizante, atravÃs da biodegradaÃÃo anaerÃbia (BioAn) dos dejetos da suinocultura, apresenta-se como uma soluÃÃo estratÃgica para minimizar os efeitos negativos associados ao grande volume de dejeto gerado em um reduzido espaÃo de produÃÃo. Contudo, mais estudos devem ser realizados para melhorar o entendimento do processo e propor melhorias. Nesse sentido, realizou-se este trabalho que foi dividido em trÃs etapas. Na primeira, foi realizado um estudo com o objetivo de avaliar as mudanÃas que ocorrem na matÃria orgÃnica e nas formas orgÃnicas e inorgÃnicas de nitrogÃnio (N) e fÃsforo (P) da fraÃÃo sÃlida do dejeto suÃno (DS), utilizando reatores anaerÃbios de bancada, em funÃÃo de sete tempos de retenÃÃo hidrÃulica (7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42 e 49 dias de biodegradaÃÃo) e comparados com o dejeto nÃo degradado. Na segunda etapa, desenvolveu-se um estudo de co-digestÃo anaerÃbia, em um reator semicontÃnuo, utilizando o DS e o resÃduo da indÃstria do processamento do tomate (RPT) em diferentes proporÃÃes de mistura, visando melhorar o desempenho da biodegradaÃÃo e estabelecer a melhor proporÃÃo dos dois substratos para a produÃÃo de biogÃs e metano. Utilizaram-se as seguintes proporÃÃes (% de DS + % de RPT): 10% + 90%, 20% + 80%, 30% + 70%, 50% + 50% e 60% + 40%. Na terceira etapa, realizou-se um estudo inovador visando recuperar o N presente no digestato gerado apÃs a biodegradaÃÃo, utilizando membranas semipermeÃveis de politetrafluoroetileno expandido (PTFE) submersas no material. Esse sistema consistiu em forÃar a volatilizaÃÃo do N presente no digestato na forma de NH3 e, posteriormente, recuperÃ-lo em uma soluÃÃo Ãcida de H2SO4 1N que circulava pelo interior da membrana de PTFE. O N foi recuperado na forma do Ãon amÃnio (NH4+), com potencial para ser utilizado como fertilizante. Utilizou-se alÃm do digestato, DS nÃo degradado, para comparaÃÃo do potencial de recuperaÃÃo de N dos dois materiais. A determinaÃÃo do acÃmulo de NH4+ formado foi realizada em nove tempos de amostragem (0, 7, 20, 30, 44, 54, 70, 79 e 93 horas). Com base nos resultados obtidos na etapa 1, concluiu-se que durante a biodegradaÃÃo, a matÃria orgÃnica de maior labilidade, representada pelo carbono da fraÃÃo Ãcido fÃlvico e carbono oxidÃvel com 2,5 mL de H2SO4, foi parcialmente consumida, promovendo o acÃmulo de matÃria orgÃnica recalcitrante no final do processo. Os conteÃdos de N orgÃnico e NH4+ reduziram respectivamente, 45,2% e 54,2% em relaÃÃo aos seus conteÃdos iniciais no dejeto nÃo degradado, devido, provavelmente, a perda por volatilizaÃÃo. O conteÃdo de P reduziu 41,25% em relaÃÃo ao seu conteÃdo inicial, devido à precipitaÃÃo quÃmica da fraÃÃo inorgÃnica extraÃvel em Ãgua com cÃtions metÃlicos no interior do reator. No caso da co-digestÃo, o aumento da proporÃÃo do DS atà o limite de 30% da mistura de alimentaÃÃo, proporcionou a mÃxima produÃÃo diÃria de biogÃs (175 L) e a maior proporÃÃo de metano (60%). Quantidades superiores a 30% de dejeto na mistura, reduziram a produÃÃo de biogÃs e metano devido ao aumento da concentraÃÃo de NH3 Livre (272 mg L-1) tÃxico a maioria dos microrganismos metanogÃnicos. No que se refere à recuperaÃÃo do N utilizando as membranas de PTFE, observou-se que a eficiÃncia de recuperaÃÃo no digestato foi superior em 12% em relaÃÃo ao observado no dejeto nÃo degradado. Em termos quantitativos, conseguiu-se recuperar 4555 mg de NH4+ proveniente do digestato durante 93 horas de experimento que poderÃ, posteriormente, ser utilizado como fonte de N para as culturas agrÃcolas.

Abstract:
Manure production and nutrient management in pasture-based dairy production systems by Walter Svinurai The effect of dietary treatments on nutrient excretion was determined and an attempt to improving the retention of excreted nitrogen in stored manure using Aloe ferox leaf gel (AFLG) and pine bark was conducted at a pasture-based dairy farm. The animal mass-balance method was used to determine nutrient excretion by cows fed on three dietary treatments, Lolium perrene-based treatment (LP), Lolium multiforium-based treatment (LM) and Lolium perenne- Trifolium repens -based treatment (LTF). In separate experiments, slurry from dairy cows fed LM was amended with AFLG and pine bark at concentrations of 25, 50, 75 and 100 g/l and stored under anaerobic conditions for 16 days. The highest and lowest excretions of N, P and K were observed in LM and LP treatments, respectively. Increasing dietary N improved K and N retention in milk and, consequently increased milk urea nitrogen (MUN) and N excretion (P < 0.05). The concentrations of AFLG affected N and P retention in manure (P < 0.05). The highest retention in total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN) of the initial was 42% AFLG at 25g/l inclusion rate. Ammonium nitrogen (AMN) concentration increased significantly due to the interactive effect of AFLG inclusion rate and time. Pine bark powder significantly improved N and P retention in manure at all concentrations. The retention in TKN was higher (P < 0.05) at 25g/l pine bark powder than other concentrations. The interaction effect of inclusion rate and time increased iii AMN (P < 0.05). Dietary treatments significantly affected nutrient excretion, and AFLG and pine bark considerably improved N retention in stored slurry. Findings from the filed trial suggest the need for more attention on managing dietary nutrients in the post-rainy and cool-dry season when growth of pasture influenced choice of dietary treatments that led to high nutrient excretion. Field simulation of the additives to determine their efficacy and environmental hazards was recommended.

Abstract:
An efficient management of organic fertilizers (here animal manure and digestate) is of large concern in today´s agriculture. When evaluating the efficiency of alternative management systems, differences in nutrient losses (emissions) must be taken into consideration. Those can be rather specific for e.g. a geographical region and agricultural system. This literature study aimed at identifying emission factors and uncertainty ranges, that are relevant to use in comparative system studies of different organic fertilizer management systems in South Swedish climate. Emissions from manure and digestate storage, application and field losses were considered. For carbon, the sequestration of organic carbon in the soil was considered instead of the carbon dioxide emissions from manure/digestate decomposition in soils. The values were very variable, and the median value was used as the selected emission factor. From storage of liquid cow manure, the ammonia emission for storage with cover was 3 % of the ammonium content, and 10 % without cover. It was about the same for both liquid pig manure (8 %) and solid cattle manure (10 %). The methane emissions during storage were 10 % of the maximum methane potential. Ammonia emissions during application ranged from 10-20 % of ammonium-nitrogen. Two studies of manure carbon sequestration were found that was applicable for the Swedish climate. They indicated that about 8-11 % of the carbon applied as solid manure was sequestered, compared to about 4 % for liquid manure.

Abstract:
Overapplication of manure in sensitive watersheds is an issue of increasing environmental concern due to increased nutrient loading and antibiotic release into aquatic environments. Manure is typically surface applied, leaving nutrients and antibiotics vulnerable to loss at the soil surface. Elevated nutrient and antibiotic loading into water bodies can increase the rate of eutrophication and occurrence of antibiotic resistance genes in areas of high animal agriculture production, such as the Chesapeake Bay watershed. Manure injection is a new technology that incorporates manure into the soil with minimal disturbance, and management strategies that reduce manure loss from agricultural fields could prevent the transport of nutrients and antibiotics to sensitive waterways. However, little is known about the efficacy of dry litter injection to decrease nitrogen (N) loss when compared to surface application. Also, there are no studies that determine the effects of injection on antibiotic transport and transformation after manure application. Therefore, this project focused on changes in N cycling, orchardgrass hay yield and quality, and transport and transformation of pirlimycin and cephapirin, two common antibiotics in dairy production, when manure is injected. Subsurface injection eliminated ammonia volatilization and N loss in runoff and increased soil inorganic N when compared to surface application after volatilization, incubation, and rainfall simulation studies. Although these benefits did not translate to higher yields in orchardgrass hay, protein increased when poultry litter was injected, indicating greater N uptake. Injection of dairy manure decreased losses of pirlimycin to levels of the control when compared to surface application. Although, pirlimycin had a slower degradation rate within the injection slit compared to surface application, potentially increasing the amount of time soil microbes are exposed to antibiotics. In an incubation study, pirlimycin concentrations decreased after 7 days, but concentrations increased sharply after 14 days. This indicates that conjugates formed in the liver or digestive tract of dairy cows may revert back to the parent compound after manure application. With increased retention of nutrients and antibiotics, injection could be a best management practice used to reduce the loss of these compounds to the environment while increasing the quality of crops produced.

Abstract:
The catchment area of the Pregolya River is about 65% of the Vistula Lagoon drainage basin and occupied by Russia and Poland in approximately equal proportions. Nutrient load from the catchment largely controls the eutrophication processes of the lagoon ecosystem. Open statistical data (2011-2014) were used for evaluating the nutrient loads. At present, the nutrient load from the major anthropogenic sources (population, livestock, poultry and crop production) is 53,267 tons N/year and 16,424 tons P/year in the Pregolya River catchment. This results in loads of 23,032 tons N/year and 2,819 tons P/year when the removal of nutrients by the harvest is taken into account. It was found that the load from anthropogenic sources in the Polish part of the catchment higher than in the Russian part by a factor of three times for nitrogen and two times for phosphorus. The reason for this is that Polish territory is relatively more agriculturally developed. In the Kaliningrad Oblast agriculture declined in the 1990-2000's and now about 50% of arable lands are not used, which creates a potential for development. Currently there is a positive trend of the agriculture development and the "Strategy of socio-economic development of the Kaliningrad Oblast until 2020" is expected to increase arable land by 70%, the number of cattle and pigs by factors of 3.5 and 9.5, respectively. This creates a potential for significant increases of the nutrients loading and eutrophication of the Vistula Lagoon. The nutrient load from the anthropogenic sources in the Russian part of the catchment can be compensated greatly by using the manure as organic fertilizer replacing mineral fertiliser, as at present time 40% of available arable land in the Kaliningrad Oblast is sufficient for utilization of all manure originated locally at the maximum fertilization rate recommended by HELCOM. At the same time more than 80% of the wastewater in Kaliningrad Oblast is not sufficiently treated. This poses a great potential for nutrient load reduction. The calculations showed that equipment of Kaliningrad city with the modern treatment facilities will reduce the nutrient load by 1,400 tons N/year and 290 tons P/year.

Full text
Abstract:
Hypothesis and Objectives: We hypothesized that coal combustion products (CCPs), including those created during scrubbing of sulfur dioxide from flue gases, can be used alone or mixed with composted animal manures as effective growth media for plants. Our specific objectives were, therefore, to (1) measure the chemical, physical and hydraulic properties of source materials and prepared mixes, (2) determine the optimum design mix of CCPs and composted animal manures for growth of plants, (3) evaluate the leachate water quality and plant uptake of selected elements from prepared mixes, (4) quantify the interaction between composted animal manures and B concentrations in the mixes, (5) study the availability of P to plants growing in the mixes, and (6) determine the microbial community and siderophores involved in the solubilization of Fe and its transfer to plants. Background: In recent years a major expansion of electricity production by coal combustion has taken place in Israel, the United States and the rest of the world. As a result, a large amount of CCPs are created that include bottom ash, fly ash, flue gas desulfurization (FGD) gypsum and other combustion products. In Israel 100,000 tons of fly ash (10% of total CCPs) are produced each year and in the US a total of 123 million tons of CCPs are produced each year with 71 million tons of fly ash, 18 million tons of bottom ash and 12 million tons of FGD gypsum. Many new scrubbers are being installed and will come on-line in the next 2 to 10 years and this will greatly expand the amount of FGD gypsum. One of the main substrates used in Israel for growth media is volcanic ash (scoria; tuff). The resemblance of bottom coal ash to tuff led us to the assumption that it is possible to substitute tuff with bottom ash. Similarly, bottom ash and FGD gypsum were considered excellent materials for creating growth mixes for agricultural and nursery production uses. In the experiments conducted, bottom ash was studied in Israel and bottom ash, fly ash and FGD gypsum was studied in the US. Major Achievements: In the US, mixes were tested that combine bottom ash, organic amendments (i.e. composts) and FGD gypsum and the best mixes supported growth of tomato, wheat and marigolds that were equal to or better than two commercial mixes used as a positive control. Plants grown on bottom ash in Israel also performed very well and microelements and radionuclides analyses conducted on plants grown on bottom coal ash proved it is safe to ingest the edible organs of these plants. According to these findings, approval to use bottom coal ash for growing vegetables and fruits was issued by the Israeli Ministry of Health. Implications: Bottom coal ash is a suitable substitute for volcanic ash (scoria; tuff) obtained from the Golan Heights as a growth medium in Israel. Recycling of bottom coal ash is more environmentally sustainable than mining a nonrenewable resource. The use of mixes containing CCPs was shown feasible for growing plants in the United States and is now being evaluated at a commercial nursery where red sunset maple trees are being grown in a pot-in-pot production system. In addition, because of the large amount of FGD gypsum that will become available, its use for production of agronomic crops is being expanded due to success of this study.

Our specific objectives were, therefore, to (1) measure the chemical, physical and hydraulic properties of source materials and prepared mixes, (2) determine the optimum design mix of CCPs and composted animal manures for growth of plants, (3) evaluate the leachate water quality and plant uptake of selected elements from prepared mixes, (4) quantify the interaction between composted animal manures and B concentrations in the mixes, (5) study the availability of P to plants growing in the mixes, and (6) determine the microbial community and siderophores involved in the solubilization of Fe and its transfer to plants. Background: In recent years a major expansion of electricity production by coal combustion has taken place in Israel, the United States and the rest of the world. As a result, a large amount of CCPs are created that include bottom ash, fly ash, flue gas desulfurization (FGD) gypsum and other combustion products. In Israel 100,000 tons of fly ash (10% of total CCPs) are produced each year and in the US a total of 123 million tons of CCPs are produced each year with 71 million tons of fly ash, 18 million tons of bottom ash and 12 million tons of FGD gypsum. Many new scrubbers are being installed and will come on-line in the next 2 to 10 years and this will greatly expand the amount of FGD gypsum. One of the main substrates used in Israel for growth media is volcanic ash (scoria; tuff). The resemblance of bottom coal ash to tuff led us to the assumption that it is possible to substitute tuff with bottom ash. Similarly, bottom ash and FGD gypsum were considered excellent materials for creating growth mixes for agricultural and nursery production uses. In the experiments conducted, bottom ash was studied in Israel and bottom ash, fly ash and FGD gypsum was studied in the US. Major Achievements: In the US, mixes were tested that combine bottom ash, organic amendments (i.e. composts) and FGD gypsum and the best mixes supported growth of tomato, wheat and marigolds that were equal to or better than two commercial mixes used as a positive control. Plants grown on bottom ash in Israel also performed very well and microelements and radionuclides analyses conducted on plants grown on bottom coal ash proved it is safe to ingest the edible organs of these plants. According to these findings, approval to use bottom coal ash for growing vegetables and fruits was issued by the Israeli Ministry of Health. Implications: Bottom coal ash is a suitable substitute for volcanic ash (scoria; tuff) obtained from the Golan Heights as a growth medium in Israel. Recycling of bottom coal ash is more environmentally sustainable than mining a nonrenewable resource. The use of mixes containing CCPs was shown feasible for growing plants in the United States and is now being evaluated at a commercial nursery where red sunset maple trees are being grown in a pot-in-pot production system. In addition, because of the large amount of FGD gypsum that will become available, its use for production of agronomic crops is being expanded due to success of this study.
