Popis: | This study aimed to quantify the amount of nitrogen (N) mineralized from the organic fraction of farm manures under field conditions. Nine different farm manures were stripped of their ammonium-N content prior to soil incorporation and establishment of ryegrass at two sites in England. Grass N uptake and nitrate-N leaching were measured for five consecutive seasons and compared with an untreated control, with the sum of N uptake + leaching (net of the control) used as an estimate of the amount of organic N mineralized from the applied manures. The amount mineralized was related to thermal time (cumulative day degrees above 5 °C – CDD), with two distinct phases – an initial phase up to 2300 CDD (c.18 months under UK climatic conditions) where mineralization proceeded at rates ranging between 0.005 and 0.027%mineralized/CDD and a slower phase at >2300 CDD, where rates were negligible at |
