“…The availability of city wastes P to crops and its impact on soil P may differ from that of inorganic P fertilizer [21][22][23][24]. Some studies have suggested that P in organic amendments may be equally or more available than fertilizer P [22]. These findings emphasize the need for studying the use of city finished compost (CFC) and NPK fertilizer to compare their effects on the growth and availability of nutrient to plants.…”

“…City finished compost (CFC), an important organic source of P is effective in increasing the availability of P as compost additions improve the fertility and the physicochemical properties of soils [18,19]. The availability of city wastes P to crops and its impact on soil P may differ from that of inorganic P fertilizer [21][22][23][24]. Some studies have suggested that P in organic amendments may be equally or more available than fertilizer P [22].…”

A pot experiment was carried out to investigate the comparative effect of city finished compost and NPK fertilizer on the growth and availability of phosphorus to radish (Raphanus sativus L.). An air dried sandy loam soil was mixed with five rates of city finished compost (CFC) equivalent to 0, 5, 10, 20, 40 ton·ha -1 and three rates of NPK fertilizer equivalent to 50% (N-P-K = 69-16-35 kg·ha -1 ), 100% (N-P-K = 137-32-70 kg·ha -1 K) and 150% (N-P-K = 206-48-105 kg·ha -1 ). Four plants were harvested at 45 days of growth and remaining one plant was harvested at 90 days of growth and separated into leaves and bulbs. After harvest, soil samples were collected from each pot to measure soil pH and available P extracted by Olsen, Mehlich-3, Kelowna and Bray & Kurtz-1 extractants. The growth parameters (length of leaves and bulbs, fresh and dry weight of leaves and bulbs), relative dry matter yield, plant P concentrations, P uptake by radish, soil pH, and available P increased by the rates of CFC and NPK fertilizer treatments. Among the treatments, growth performance of radish was better with the highest rate of 40 t·ha -1 CFC treatments. The results obtained from the 5 and 10 t·ha -1 CFC treatment were comparable with the results of 50% and 100% NPK fertilizer treatments respectively. Similar effects of amendments were obtained in the case of plant P concentration, uptake of P by plant, soil pH and available soil P concentration. Available P and soil pH showed very strong and positive correlation (P < 0.001) with dry matter yield, P uptake by plant. The P extracted by various extractants also showed strong positive correlation (r = 0.973 to 0.994; P < 0.001 ) each other indicating the suitability of any of the extractants to predict available P. Results of the present study indicated that 10 t·ha -1 city finished compost could be used instead of 100% to obtain similar yield and to improve soil conditions.

“…McCoy et al [8] found that biosolids (treated City wastes) P was four to seven times less available than triple super phosphate P. In contrast, other studies have suggested that P in organic amendments may be equally or more available than fertilizer P [9,10]. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the effects of cow manure, city wastes, chicken manure and TSP on the growth of corn and phytoavailability of phosphorus in soils.…”

A pot experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of cow manure, city waste, chicken manure and TSP on the growth of corn (Zea mays) and phytoavailability of phosphorous (P) in soil. An air dried sandy loam soil was mixed with different amendments at rates equivalent to 0, 200, 400 and 800 mg·P·kg -1 soil based on total P. The plant height and leaf number increased in the plants grown in amended pots compared to control pot. The dry weight of shoots and roots in the control pot were 14.3 and 2.8 g, respectively. The shoot dry weights of corn increased from 43.8 to 76.6 g with the cow manure, 27.8 to 38.7 g with the city waste, 48.4 to 68.2 g with the chicken manure and 30.2 to 32.2 g with the TSP amendments when the P addition rates increased from 200 to 800 mg·P·kg -1 soil. Similar effects of these amendments and their rates were also found in the case of roots dry weights production. Phosphorus concentration in the plant parts increased with the P application from different amendments but the increase was higher with the TSP fertilizer and lower with the city waste amendments. Olsen P (measured after the plant harvest) increased with P application rates. The extractability of Olsen P from different amendments increased in this order: city waste < chicken manure < cow manure < TSP. Olsen P was strongly related with both shoot and root P concentration of corn (r = 0.910, p = 0.000), indicate suitability of Olsen P to predict plant available P. These results imply that cow manure and chicken manure could be recommended to use in the agricultural field for producing optimum yield.

“…The same authors observed (Laboski and Lamb, 2003) observed an increase in the availability of P = when livestock manure was applied because its concentration in the organic amendment can be equal to or greater than. Another factor that may explain the results reported in this research is the production of organic acids during microbial degradation of organic fertilizer applied to soil, as they can increase nutrient availability to plants (Gale et al, 2000). Benef icial effects on soil-plant system properties, such as improved physical characteristics, increased nutrient contents, soil fertility, higher biological and enzymatic activity, have been observed after applying composts (Roca et al, 2008).…”

El uso de desechos de ganado y residuos vegetales, como fuente de nutrientes y material orgánico para el suelo, puede representar una alternativa viable para evitar daños riesgosos para el agroecosistema, derivados del uso de fertilizantes químicos. El presente estudio fue conducido en 2013, en condiciones de invernadero en la FACIATEC-UACH, Chihuahua, México. Se evaluó la contribución al suelo de los macronutrientes NO3-, P=, K+, Ca++, Mg++ y Na+, a partir de cuatro compostas elaboradas de (a) estiércol de bovinos, (b) excremento de gallina, (c) aserrín y (d) esquilmo de maíz, los cuales fueron comparados con urea como fertilizante sintético y un control sin fertilizante. Se utilizó un diseño completamente aleatorizado y se realizó el análisis de varianza mediante el paquete estadístico SAS (Statistical Analysis System), versión 9.3.1; la comparación múltiple de medias se realizó mediante el procedimiento de Tukey (α = 0.05). Los resultados sugieren que cinco de los tratamientos de compostas incrementaron la concentración de NO3-, en los cuales el estiércol de gallina superó signif icativamente al de bovinos en su aportación de los macronutrientes NO3- y P=; del mismo modo, las compostas elaboradas a partir de aserrín tuvieron un efecto signif icativo sobre el NO3- y superaron a los que contenían esquilmos de maíz. La concentración de Ca++ y Mg++ en los suelos donde se aplicó la composta, fue menor en comparación con aquellos tratados con urea, aunque el contenido de Na+ en los tratamientos de composta superó estadísticamente a la de aquellos tratados con fertilizantes inorgánicos. Esta evidencia sugiere que el uso de fertilizantes orgánicos, ya sea de origen animal o vegetal, es una fuente benéf ica para los nutrientes del suelo con alto potencial en la agricultura sostenible.
