| Abstract/Contents: | "Pastures are commonly fertilized with poultry litter or manure in northwestern Arkansas. We hypothesized that this practice may enhance NO3-N movement to groundwater and wanted to ascertain the likelihood of common application rates causing excessive NO3-N leaching. Our objective was to determine the effect of application rate of poultry litter or manure on NO3-N concentration in vadose water under fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) plots as a function of depth and time. In August 1991, poultry litter was applied at 0 (control), 10 (PL20), and 20 Mg ha-1(PL20) and poultry manure at 17.7 Mg ha-1 (PM20). In June 1992, we applied an additional 4.5 Mg ha-1 litter (PL5) to the PL10 plots and 3.8 Mg ha-1 manure (PM5) to PM20 plots. Pan lysimeters at the 60-cm depth and suction-cup lysimeters at 60 and 120 cm sampled soil water. The PL10, PL20, and PM20 treatments produced NO3-N concentration as high as 13, 54, and 41 mg L-1 at 60 cm. At 120 cm, NO3-N reached 8, 24, and 37 mg L-1 for the PL10, PL20, and PM20 treatments. In 1992, the PL5 and PM5 treatments produced NO3-N concentrations <1 mg L-1 at the 60- and 120-cm depths. The recommended litter application rate in Arkansas is not more than 11.2 Mg ha-1 yr-1, split in two 5.6 Mg ha-1 applications. The PL10 and PL5 rates (similiar to a maximum full-year application plus a single split application) did not result in NO3-N concentrations above the drinking water standard (10 mg L-1) at the 120-cm depth." |
