Abstract

ABSTRACT: To investigate a proper way to use animal manure as a fertilizer, simulated leaching experiments with soil columns (40 cm) and field experiments were both conducted. Concretely, biological organic fertilizer (BOF), ordinary organic fertilizer (OF), and swine manure (SM) were utilized, with chemical fertilizer (CF) and no phosphorus (NOP) as controls. The mobility of phosphorus and the amount of organic matter (OM) retention in soil were compared. Total phosphorus in the leachate was SM>BOF>OF (simulated) and SM>OF>BOF (field), and the content of Olsen-P in 0 to 20-cm depth of the soil was CF>SM>OF>BOF>NOP (simulated) and CF>BOF>OF>SM = NOP (field), which was caused by the absorption of vegetables in the latter. Moreover, OM retention of BOF treatment was significantly higher than other treatments in 0 to 20-cm depth of soil with vegetable planting. Consequently, it's not advised to directly apply SM into the soil, while BOF and OF are the better way.
