Abstract

ABSTRACT RESULTS from 14 yr of manure incorporation in Pullman clay loam soil show that annual applications of 22 Mg/ha of beef feedlot manure has been adequate for high yields of good quality crops. Higher rates of manure resulted in high nitrate levels in the forage and have severely reduced yields in some cases. These higher rates wasted N and contributed to high nitrate levels in the subsoil. Manure has increased the hydraulic conductivity and decreased the bulk density of clay loam soil.
