Abstract

Abstract : Sustainable nutrient management requires redistribution of livestock manure from nutrient‐excess areas to nutrient‐deficit areas. Field experiments were conducted to assess agronomic and environmental effects of different poultry litter application methods (surface vs. subsurface) and timings (fall vs. spring) in a potential manure‐importing region in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed in the United States.
