The largest differences were between plots with added sheep-manure compost and plots without added compost (nitrogen: 0.10% vs 0.06%; phosphorus: 81 vs 30 mg/kg; potassium oxide: 474 vs 232 mg/kg). Similar pH was found in all plots (7.34–7.41). Soil organisms: Similar bacteria ...
The influence of 15 annual applications of composted (CM) or stockpiled (SM) beef feedlot manure with straw (ST) or wood-chip (WD) bedding on electrical conductivity (EC), soluble cations and anions (Na, K, Ca, Mg, SO4-S, Cl), sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), potassium adsorption ratio...
(>10 t ha−1biochar) at once, the greatest positive plant responses were observed with mineral-rich biochars made from manure and straw, or when biochar amendment improved unfavorable soil conditions (e.g. water supply6,9,15,16; pH/liming6,17, heavy metal pollution18). When biochars...
