Title:
Loss of Nitrogen from Pig Slurry to Ammonia Volatilization and Nitrate Leaching
Author(s): Sommer, S.G. and I.K. Thomsen
Publication Date: January 1, 1993
Reference: In Nitrogen Flow in Pig Production and Environmental Consequences. Edited by M.W.A Verstegen, L.A. den Hartog, G.J.M. van Kempen and J.H.M. Metz. P.353-367
Country: Denmark

Summary:

The authors present an important literature review. When considering ammonia emissions, all means to reduce direct contact of manure with air, covers during storage and incorporation or injection of manure and rapid infiltration when spreading will lower the emissions. The leaching will be controlled when manure is applied the closer in time to the growth period.
