Nitrogen fertilizer replacement value of undigested liquid cattle manure and digestates
Abstract
Accurate estimation of animal manure nitrogen (N) availability is required to maximize crop N use efficiency and reduce environmental N losses. Many field and laboratory experiments have shown that first-year net mineralization of manure organic N is often negligible, which often causes crop available N to approximate the ammonium N content of the manure. Anaerobic digestion increases the ammonium share and reduces the C to organic N ratio of animal manures, potentially increasing their N fertilizer value.In 2011, we undertook a three-year field experiment in Northern Italy to estimate the N fertilizer value of four manures: undigested cattle slurry, digested cattle slurry-maize mix, and liquid and solid fractions of the digested slurry-maize mix. The experiment also allowed us to test if ammonium recovery was similar among manures, and between manures and ammonium sulphate. Fertilizers were applied annually to plots before silage maize cultivation that was followed by an unfertilized Italian ryegrass crop.Results showed that the recovery of ammonium from manure in maize did not differ significantly compared to ammonium sulphate among all the fertilizers in 2013; however, in 2011 and 2012 it was significantly lower for all manures except digested slurry-maize mix and its liquid fraction in 2011.The increased recovery of applied N in 2012 and 2013 for solid fraction and undigested manure were likely due to the residual effect of previously applied organic N.

Higher share of ammonium nitrogen in digestate means larger share of nitrogen is directly available to plants.
“However, the higher share of ammonium nitrogen in digestate means that a larger share of the nitrogen is directly available to plants (Cavalli et al., 2016).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
