Optimizing farmyard manure and cattle slurry applications for intensively managed grasslands based on UK-DNDC model simulations [PDF]

open access: yesScience of the Total Environment, 2020
Fertilizer applications can enhance soil fertility, pasture growth and thereby increase production. Nitrogen fertilizer has, however, been identified as a significant source of nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions fromagriculture if not used correctly and can ...

Biochar Affected by Composting with Farmyard Manure

Journal of Environmental Quality, 2013
Biochar applications to soils can improve soil fertility by increasing the soil's cation exchange capacity (CEC) and nutrient retention. Because biochar amendment may occur with the applications of organic fertilizers, we tested to which extent composting with farmyard manure increases CEC and nutrient content of charcoal and gasification coke.

Physical properties of farmyard manure at different depths of manure pit

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES, 2022
Farmyard manure refers to the decomposed mixture of dung and urine of farm animals along with litter and left over material from roughages or fodder fed to the cattle. On an average well composted farmyard manure contains 0.5 per cent N, 0.2 per cent P2O5 and 0.5 per cent K2O (Reddy, 2005).

Anaerobic Composting of Farmyard Manure as Affected by Chicken Manure, Urea and Waste Water

University of Khartoum Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2023
the objectives of this study were to investigate the stage ofmaturity and to determine nutrient contents of farmyard manure (FYM)composted with 2% chicken manure (CHM), 1% urea, and 25% wastewater, during the summer seasons of 1997 and 1998. The treatments werereplicated thrice in a completely randomized design.

Nitrogen Fixation by Farmyard Manures

Nature, 1947
IN previous communications1 it was reported that the value of farmyard manure (cow dung) is due not only to its nitrogen content but also to its power to fix nitrogen of the air. Our field experiments show that when wet, fresh collected cow dung is added to soil at the rate of 25 tons per acre, 33 lb.

Investigations into the mode of action of farmyard manure. I. The influence of soil moisture conditions on the response of maincrop potatoes to farmyard manure

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1965
1. The paper describes ten consecutive field experiments carried out between 1952 and 1961 investigating the action of F.Y.M. on the yield of maincrop potatoes. In all experiments high basal dressings of PK fertilizer were used.2. Soil moisture deficits were estimated from meteorological data and the maximum deficit (M.S.M.D.) in a particular season ...

Water extracts of fresh and mature farmyard manure

Biological Wastes, 1988
Abstract Water extracts of fresh and 3-month stabilized FYM were examined. The maturation process produced a significant increase in the water-soluble dry matter, organic C and N, pH and EC. No significant difference was found in phenol content, whereas spectroscopic measurements of the extract indicated a higher condensation of organic components ...
