Residual Effects of Pig Slurry Fertilization in a Mediterranean Rainfed Cereal System

An increase in nitrogen (N) use efficiency (NUE) in agriculture is a requirement for sustainable development. The reduction in nitrogen inputs might benefit from the residual N of former organic fertilization procedures. A 10 year experiment was established in a rainfed Mediterranean system (barley-...

The reduction in nitrogen inputs might benefit from the residual N of former organic fertilization procedures. A 10 year experiment was established in a rainfed Mediterranean system (barley-wheat rotation). The objective of this experiment was to quantify the N residual effects of a single pig slurry (PS) application at sowing (20, 40, and 80 m3 ha−1) and up to three years later. The mineral N equivalence method was used to compare the grain yield (GY) and the whole-plant N uptake (WPNU) between the slurry fertilized plots (slurries applied in pre-vious years) and annual mineral N fertilized ones (30, 60, 90, 120, and 150 kg N ha−1). From the total N applied with PS, a fraction of, ca., 21% accounted for the residual equivalent mineral N for a total period of three years after the PS application. For the 20 m3 ha−1 rate, the relative residual N based on the GY and WPNU equaled to 89-90% of the applied organic N, respectively. This rate also allowed for an increase in NUE values to above 33%. In semiarid areas, the introduction of residual N when scheduling fertilization is important to reduce N inputs and to increase NUE.This work was supported by the Spanish National Institute for Agricultural Research and Experimentation (MINECO-INIA) through the projects REN01-1590, RTA04-114, RTA2010-126, RTA2013-57-C5-5, and RTA2017-88-C3-3.MDPI2024info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.3390/agronomy14112552https://hdl.handle.net/10459.1/466847reponame:Recercat.
