Determinations of feed–milk–manure relationships on grazing-based dairy farms

open access: yesAnimal, 2012
Feed conversion into milk, nutrient excretion in manure and subsequent environment impacts of manure management are highly influenced by the diets that farmers feed their lactating cows (Bos taurus).

Effect of phosphoric rock on the chemical, microbiological and enzymatic quality of poultry, equine and cattle manure compost mix [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Recycling of Organic Waste in Agriculture, 2022
Purpose Phosphorus (P) is one of the key elements in the agricultural sector, allowing improved production yields. Phosphate rock is a natural source of phosphorus; however, its low reactivity limits the release of P available to plants in the short term,

Occurrence and transformation of veterinary pharmaceuticals and biocides in manure: a literature review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The spread of veterinary medicinal products (VMPs) and biocides via manure onto agriculturally used areas represents a very important emission into the environment for these product groups.

Annual Ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.) Growth Response to Nitrogen in a Sandy Soil Amended with Acidified Manure and Municipal Sludge after “Quick Wash” Treatment

open access: yesAgronomy, 2023
The Quick Wash (QW) treatment extracts phosphorus (P) from manure and municipal sludge (MS), producing an organic acidified by-product with adequate nitrogen (N):P ratio to meet crop N requirements.

Biochar and Manure from Cattle Fed Biochar as Agricultural Amendments Alter CH4 Oxidation in a Gray Luvisol

open access: yesLand, 2023
Greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions from agricultural practices contribute 14% of anthropogenic emissions to the atmosphere, and novel practices to reduce these emissions, including feeding cattle a modified diet, are of interest.

Multiple benefits of manure: the key to maintenance of soil fertility and restoration of depleted sandy soils on African smallholder farms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Manure is a key nutrient resource on smallholder farms in the tropics, especially on poorly buffered sandy soils, due to its multiple benefits for soil fertility. Farmers preferentially apply manure to fields closest to homesteads (homefields), which are

Does reduced usage of antibiotics in livestock production mitigate the spread of antibiotic resistance in soil, earthworm guts, and the phyllosphere? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The overuse of antibiotics in animal husbandry is widespread and believed to significantly contribute to the selection of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in animals.

Analysis of Volatile Organic Compounds and Comparison of Heat Resistance Related Gene Expression in Pleurotus ostreatus Under Heat Stress

open access: yesMycobiology
Heat stress induces oxidative stress in Pleurotus ostreatus (P. ostreatus), inhibiting the growth of both mycelium and fruiting bodies. While various studies have analyzed the physiological responses of P.

Transcriptom Analysis of Auricularia auriculla-judae Fruit Body Treated with Gamma Radiation on Mycelium

open access: yesMycobiology
Fungi have a high resistance to gamma radiation. Previous studies elucidating the resistance mechanisms to gamma radiation have mainly been conducted using yeast model organisms, but molecular-level mechanisms targeting fungi have been largely unexplored.
