“…Studies evaluating the response of grain crops, such as soybean (Glycine max L.) and corn (Zea mays L.), to organic fertilizers usually focus on poultry manure, fresh or composted, (Adeli et al, 2005;Slaton et al, 2013), biosolid waste (sewage sludge) (Lixandru et al, 2011), or pig slurry (Barbazan et al, 2009). Adeli et al (2005) observed that soybean grain yield, nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) uptake increased quadratically in line with increases broiler litter and commercial fertilizer application rates, and broiler litter treatment produced a grain yield of 3 % than commercial fertilizer.…”

“…Yield corn increases were observed by Barbazan et al (2009) in response to manure and mineral fertilizer, mainly when both were applied together. As regards the soil attributes, Adeli et al (2005) observed an increase in pH and P levels when poultry manure was applied, while Slaton et al (2013) found out that this waste was as effective as mineral fertilizers in supplying P and K to the soybean crop.…”

Slaughterhouses generate large amounts of rumen content and its use as a fertilizer may offer an environmentally friendly strategy for its management. The effect of an organic fertilizer produced from slaughterhouse waste on the fertility of sandy and clayey soils as well as soybean yield (Glycine max L.) and corn (Zea mays L.) crops was evaluated. Field experiments were set up and five rates up to 16 t ha −1 of organic fertilizer (293 kg ha −1 N, 334 kg ha −1 P and 27 kg ha −1 K) were applied annually, before sowing in spring/summer, as well as a mineral fertilization of 300 kg ha −1 in the formulation 2-20-20 for soybean and 300 kg ha −1 of 12-15-15for corn. The organic fertilizer changed soil fertility in the field experiments by increasing pH, Ca, Mg, K, P-Mehlich and P-resin. Such effects were more evident in the sandy than in the clayey soil, and the most superficial layer was affected more. The organic fertilizer rate needed to achieve maximum yield decreased for corn in both soils and for soybean in the sandy soil, although the amounts required may still be regarded as high.

“…Konzen (2003), assessing poultry litter levels of 3.6 and 5.0 Mg ha -1 on corn yield, observed values of 7,690 and 8,630 kg ha -1 , respectively, compared to the control, which produced 6,690 kg ha -1 . Adeli et al (2005) evaluated different levels of poultry litter on soybean development and reported a quadratic response in soybean yield. According to these authors, very high litter applications do not improve soybean yield and exceed the crop potential of nitrogen use, which is evidenced by the increased levels of nitrate in the soil.…”

-The objective of this work was to assess the effect of poultry litter fertilization levels on corn and black oat yield using different grazing intensities, poultry litter levels (mixture of manure and bedding material) and a chemical fertilization level. The experimental design was a randomized complete block in a split-plot arrangement with four replicates. Black oat + ryegrass grazing intensities, characterized by different pasture sward management, with animal entrance at 25, 30 and 35-cm heights and exit at 5.0, 10 and 15-cm heights, were established at the main plots. After the grazing period, corn was grown at the subplots with four levels of poultry litter (0, 4,953, 9,907 and 14,860 kg ha -1 ), aiming to supply 0, 100, 200 and 300 kg ha -1 of nitrogen, and a treatment with chemical fertilizer, according to soil analysis. Grazing intensities had no effect on corn yield. Corn yield was 7,493, 8,458, 9,188, 10,247 and 11,028 kg ha -1 , respectively, for the treatments without and with 4,953, 9,907 and 14,860 kg ha -1 of poultry litter, and the treatment with chemical fertilization. Poultry litter levels have a residual effect on the production of black oat grown in succession to corn.Index terms: Avena strigosa, Zea mays, chemical fertilizer, organic fertilizer, residual effect, yield components. Intensidades de pastejo e níveis de adubação com cama de aviário sobre a produtividade de milho e aveia-pretaResumo -O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito de níveis de adubação com cama de aviário sobre a produtividade de milho e aveia-preta com uso de diferentes intensidades de pastejo, níveis de cama de aviário (mistura de esterco e material utilizado como cama) e nível de adubação química. Utilizou-se o delineamento experimental de blocos ao acaso com parcelas subdivididas e quatro repetições. As intensidades de pastejo na aveia-preta + azevém, caracterizadas por diferentes alturas de manejo do pasto, com alturas de entrada dos animais em 25, 30 e 35 cm e de saída em 5,0, 10 e 15 cm, foram impostas nas parcelas principais. Após o período de pastejo, o milho foi cultivado nas subparcelas com quatro níveis de cama de aviário (0, 4.953, 9.907 e 14.860 kg ha -1 ), para suprir 0, 100, 200 e 300 kg ha -1 de nitrogênio, e um tratamento com adubação química, conforme análise do solo. As intensidades de pastejo não afetaram a produtividade do milho. A produtividade do milho foi de 7. 493, 8.458, 9.188, 10.247 e 11.028 kg ha -1 , respectivamente, para os tratamentos sem e com 4.953, 9.907 e 14.860 kg ha -1 de cama de aviário e para o tratamento com adubação química. Há efeito residual dos níveis de cama de aviário na produtividade da aveia-preta cultivada em sucessão ao milho.Termos para indexação: Avena strigosa, Zea mays, adubação química, adubação orgânica, efeito residual, componentes de produtividade.

Few studies were conducted to ascertain poultry litter (PL) and its residual influence on soil physical and hydrological properties. A field study was conducted on a sandy loam soil for 8 yr in corn (Zea mays L.), cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.), and soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] rotations at Mississippi Agricultural and Forestry Experiment Station in Verona, MS. Poultry litter treatment was applied to the three crops at an average of 7.6 Mg ha -1 yr -1 in the first 5 yr. The inorganic fertilizer treatment was 224 and 100 kg ha -1 yr -1 for corn and cotton. Inorganic P and K fertilizers applied were based on soil analysis, but no synthetic N was applied to soybean. Soil properties and yields were measured in the first year (2015) and third years (2017) after stopping PL application and planting all plots with soybean. Applying PL for 5 yr significantly improved soil aggregate stability by 17%. Infiltration rate and saturated hydraulic conductivity was two to three times greater in soil amended with PL than with inorganic fertilizer. Poultry litter addition significantly increased field capacity and plant available water content by 20%. Those soil properties were not affected by the rotation treatments. Total soil C did not differ between PL and fertilizer treatment. Soybean yield was continuously increased by 8% in 2015 and 11% in 2017 after stopping PL application. Poultry litter application is capable of improving soil physical and hydrological properties, and its residual could sustain soybean yield for 3 yr after stopping applications.
