Nitrous Oxide Loss from Poultry Manure-Amended Soil after Rain
Land application of poultry wastes in Kentucky will increase as the broiler industry grows. If poultry manure stimulates N2O loss from soil it will reduce the fertilizer N value of this waste. In contrast, stimulated NjO loss in grass filter strips receiving the runoff from manured fields could help reduce contamination of surface water by NOf. Our objectives were to determine (i) if poultry ma...
متن کاملSalmonella and Fecal Indicator Bacteria Survival in Soils Amended with Poultry Manure
Minimizing the risks associated with manure-borne pathogenic microorganisms requires an understanding of microbial survival under realistic field conditions. The objective of this 3-year study was to assess the fate of Salmonella (SALM) and fecal indicator bacteria (FIB), E. coli (EC) and enterococci (ENT), in glacial tillderived soils, after application of poultry manure (PM) to cornfields und...
متن کاملEffect of bovine manure on fecal coliform attachment to soil and soil particles of different sizes.
Manure-borne bacteria can be transported in runoff as free cells, cells attached to soil particles, and cells attached to manure particles. The objectives of this work were to compare the attachment of fecal coliforms (FC) to different soils and soil fractions and to assess the effect of bovine manure on FC attachment to soil and soil fractions. Three sand fractions of different sizes, the silt...
متن کاملModeling manure-borne bromide and fecal coliform transport with runoff and infiltration at a hillslope.
Hillslope vegetated buffers are recommended to prevent water pollution from agricultural runoff. However, models to predict the efficacy of different grass buffer designs are lacking. The objective of this work was to develop and test a mechanistic model of coupled surface and subsurface flow and transport of bacteria and a conservative tracer on hillslopes. The testing should indicate what lev...
متن کاملFecal bacteria and sex hormones in soil and runoff from cropped watersheds amended with poultry litter.
The application of poultry litter to agricultural fields can provide plant nutrients for crops and forage production, but fecal bacteria and the sex hormones estradiol and testosterone are components of litter that can be detrimental to the environment. Our objective was to determine if applications of poultry litter to small watersheds would contribute to the load of fecal bacteria and sex hor...
