 The effects of floodwater algae and green manure on transformations of 15N-urea were studied in columns of a sandy loam soil in a growth chamber. The columns were flooded and either kept in the light, to allow algal growth, or in the dark (control) for 17 days before adding the labelled urea. Changes in urea-, NO3 –- and NH4 +-N levels and the pH of the floodwater were measured over the subsequent 41-day period, during which the control column remained in the dark and those containing algae were maintained either in the dark to cause the death of the algae or in the light. Volatilized NH3 was monitored, and on termination of the experiment the distribution of 15N between NO3 –, NH4 + and organic forms was measured in the soil. Urea hydrolysis was most rapid in the presence of both living algae and green manure, followed by dead algae, and was slowest in the control. The concentration of NH4 +-N in the floodwater was, however, reduced in the presence of algae due to assimilation and NH3 volatilization owing to the raised day-time pH in the floodwater. NH3 volatilization for the first 10 days was rather high in the columns kept in the light compared to those in the dark. Total volatilization plus denitrification losses were greatest where dead algae were present, owing to the absence of live algae which assimilated more than half of the applied N. Algal growth in floodwater increased the depth of the aerobic soil layer present at the soil-water interface. Subsequently, under dark conditions, stimulated algal growth reduced the depth of the aerobic layer causing less nitrification, which resulted in lower losses of N due to denitrification, i.e. 17% of the applied urea-N as compared to 39% in the light treatments. Although the presence of green manure caused a marked increase in the rate of hydrolysis, algal assimilation prevented excessive N losses via volatilization, indicating that the retention of higher quantities of NH4 +-N may have increased fertilizer-N use efficiency.

Urine patches are significant hot‐spots of C and N transformations. To investigate the effects of urine composition on C and N turnover and gaseous emissions from a Danish pasture soil, a field plot study was carried out in September 2001. Cattle urine was amended with two levels of 13C‐ and 15N‐labeled urea, corresponding to 5.58 and 9.54 g urea‐N l–1, to reflect two levels of protein intake. Urine was then added to a sandy‐loam pasture soil equivalent to a rate of 23.3 or 39.8 g urea‐N m–2. Pools and isotopic labeling of nitrous oxide (N2O) and CO2 emissions, extractable urea, ammonium (NH4+), and nitrate (NO3–), and plant uptake were monitored during a 14 d period, while ammonia (NH3) losses were estimated in separate plots amended with unlabeled urine. Ammonia volatilization was estimated to account for 14% and 12% of the urea‐N applied in the low (UL) and high (UH) urea treatment, respectively. The recovery of urea‐derived N as NH4+ increased during the first several days, but isotopic dilution was significant, possibly as a result of stress‐induced microbial metabolism. After a 2 d lag phase, nitrification proceeded at similar rates in UL and UH despite a significant difference in NH4+ availability. Nitrous oxide fluxes were low, but generally increased during the 14 d period, as did the proportion derived from urea‐N. On day 14, the contribution from urea was 23% (UL) and 13% (UH treatment), respectively. Cumulative total losses of N2O during the 14 d period corresponded to 0.021% (UL) and 0.015% (UH) of applied urea‐N. Nitrification was probably the source of N2O. Emission of urea‐derived C as CO2 was only detectable within the first 24 h. Urea‐derived C and N in above‐ground plant material was only significant at the first sampling, indicating that uptake of urine‐C and N via the leaves was small. Urine composition did not influence the potential for N2O emissions from urine patches under the experimental conditions, but the importance of site conditions and season should be investigated further.  相似文献

We studied the interacting effects on NH3 loss and grain yield of adding (1) urease inhibitors to retard the hydrolysis of urea (2) the algicide terbutryn to limit floodwater pH increases, and (3) C2H2 (provided by waxcoated calcium carbide) to prevent NH3 oxidation. The algicide treatment maintained the floodwater pH values below 8 for the first 3 days after the urea application and depressed the maximum values below 8.5 on subsequent days. As a consequence, NH3 loss was significantly (P<0.05) reduced in all treatments containing algicide. The addition of wax-coated calcium carbide effectively inhibited nitrification, as judged by the increased ammoniacal (NH3+NH4) N concentrations in the floodwater, However, these increased ammonical-N concentrations resulted in large losses of NH3. The results also showed that the effectiveness of a urease inhibitor cannot be judged solely from the ammonical-N concentrations in the floodwater of a single treatment with the inhibitor. Additional treatments with an algicide and a nitrification inhibitor are required to determine whether the low ammoniacal-N concentrations are caused by NH3 losses and nitrification. Thus N-(n-butyl)thiophosphorictriamide (NBPT) appeared to retard urea hydrolysis when judged by the low ammoniacal-N concentrations in the floodwater; however, treatments with NBPT, algicide, and C2H2 showed that the low concentrations were mainly a result of NH3 volatilization and nitrification. Even though NBPT did not completely inhibit urea hydrolysis, some treatments with this compound reduced NH3 losses and increased grain yields by up to 31%.  相似文献

A soil column method was used to compare the effect of drip fertigation (the application of fertilizer through drip irrigation systems, DFI) on the leaching loss and transformation of urea-N in soil with that of surface fertilization combined with flood irrigation (SFI), and to study the leaching loss and transformation of three kinds of nitrogen fertilizers (nitrate fertilizer, ammonium fertilizer, and urea fertilizer) in two contrasting soils after the fertigation. In comparison to SFI, DFI decreased leaching loss of urea-N from the soil and increased the mineral N (NH4+-N + NO3--N) in the soil. The N leached from a clay loam soil ranged from 5.7% to 9.6% of the total N added as fertilizer, whereas for a sandy loam soil they ranged between 16.2% and 30.4%. Leaching losses of mineral N were higher when nitrate fertilizer was used compared to urea or ammonium fertilizer. Compared to the control (without urea addition), on the first day when soils were fertigated with urea, there were increases in NH4+-N in the soils. This confirmed the rapid hydrolysis of urea in soil during fertigation. NH4+-N in soils reached a peak about 5 days after fertigation, and due to nitrification it began to decrease at day 10. After applying NH4+-N fertilizer and urea and during the incubation period, the mineral nitrogen in the soil decreased. This may be related to the occurrence of NH4+-N fixation or volatilization in the soil during the fertigation process.  相似文献

The effect of the combined application of urease and nitrification inhibitors on ammonia volatilization and the abundance of nitrifier and denitrifier communities is largely unknown. Here, in a mesocosm experiment, ammonia volatilization was monitored in an agricultural soil treated with urea and either or both of the urease inhibitor N‐(n‐butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT) and the nitrification inhibitor 3,4‐dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP), with 50% and 80% water‐filled pore space (WFPS). The effect of the treatments on the abundance of bacteria and archaea was estimated by quantitative PCR (qPCR) amplification of their respective 16S rRNA gene, that of nitrifiers using amoA genes, and that of denitrifiers by qPCR of the norB and nosZI denitrification genes. After application of urea, N losses due to NH3 volatilization accounted for 23.0% and 9.2% at 50% and 80% WFPS, respectively. NBPT reduced NH3 volatilization to 2.0% and 2.4%, whereas DMPP increased N losses by up to 36.8% and 26.0% at 50% and 80% WFPS, respectively. The combined application of NBPT and DMPP also increased NH3 emissions, albeit to a lesser extent than DMPP alone. As compared with unfertilized control soil, both at 50% and 80% WFPS, NBPT strongly affected the abundance of bacteria and archaea, but not that of nitrifiers, and decreased that of denitrifiers at 80% WFPS. Regardless of moisture conditions, treatment with DMPP increased the abundance of denitrifiers. DMPP, both in single and in combined application with NBPT, increased the abundance of nitrification and denitrification genes.  相似文献

Synthetic fertilizer, livestock manure, and green manure are the typical nitrogen (N) sources in agriculture. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of different N sources on soil chemical environment and N dynamics. Changes in pH, redox potential (Eh), and concentration and δ15N of dissolved N [ammonium (NH4+), nitrate (NO3?), organic N, and total N] of soils treated with urea (U), pig manure compost (PMC), and hairy vetch (HV) were investigated in an incubation experiment under waterlogged conditions. The patterns of pH, Eh, and N concentration reflected both a greater mineralization potential of N derived from U than that from HV and PMC and easier decomposability of HV than PMC. The δ15N further suggested that nitrification was more active for U than for HV- and PMC-treated soils and that N loss via NH3 volatilization and denitrification would be greater for HV than U and PMC treatments.  相似文献

Abstract

Efficient nitrogen (N) fertilizer management for paddy rice production is difficult because of potentially high N losses from denitrification, NH3 volatilization, and leaching. The use of a nitrification inhibitor, by slowing the rate of nitrification of NH4 +‐N sources prior to flooding, offers the potential to reduce denitrification losses that occur after flooding. Dicyandiamide (DCD) is one such nitrification inhibitor. The objective of this series of studies was to evaluate DCD for its effectiveness as a nitrification inhibitor in paddy rice production across an array of soils, management systems, and climate conditions.

Studies were conducted on fine‐ and medium‐textured soils in Arkansas, California, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas. Dicyandiamide was coated onto or formulated with urea (7 or 10% of total N as DCD‐N) and applied either broadcast pre‐plant incorporated or broadcast as a topdress application prior to flooding at the 4‐ to 5‐leaf development stage of the rice plant. These treatments were compared with urea applied either pre‐plant incorporated or in multiple applications timed to the peak N demand periods of rice. An array of N rates were used to model the yield response to levels of N. Similar studies utilizing 15N‐enriched urea were also conducted.

The studies indicated that use of DCD delayed nitrification and tended to result in rice grain yield increases as compared with urea applied pre‐plant without DCD in drill‐seeded rice; however, proper application of urea in split applications gave more consistent results. In water‐seeded continuously flooded rice culture, use of DCD was advantageous only if the flood was delayed for more than 14 days after urea application. The 15N‐enriched studies indicated that highest N fertilizer recovery was associated with split topdress urea applications; however, addition of DCD resulted in increased immobilization of fertilizer N and release of soil N.  相似文献

Laboratory incubation study showed that iron pyrites retarded nitrification of urea-derived ammonium (NH4 +), the effect being greatest at the highest level (10000 mg kg–1 soil). Nitrification inhibition with 10000 mg pyrite kg–1 soil, at the end of 30 days, was 40.3% compared to 55.9% for dicyandiamide (DCD). The inhibitory effect with lower rates of pyrite (100–500 mg kg–1) lasted only up to 9 days. Urea+pyrite treatment was also found to have higher exchangeable NH4 +-N compared to urea alone. DCD-amended soils had the highest NH4 +-N content throughout. Pyrite-treated soils had about 7–86% lower ammonia volatilization losses than urea alone. Total NH3 loss was the most with urea+DCD (7.9% of applied N), about 9% more than with urea alone. Received: 11 November 1995  相似文献

在南方红壤区双季稻田进行田间试验,研究等氮、磷、钾量条件下,有机无机肥配施对稻田氨挥发及水稻产量的影响。结果表明,有机无机肥配合施用能显著地降低稻田氨挥发,减少氮素损失,提高氮肥利用率。单施化肥(尿素),其氨挥发损失达37.8%,而单施有机肥和有机无机肥各半配合施用,氨挥发损失分别为0.7％-1.0％和7.2％-18.2％。田间氨挥发持续的时间,早稻约在施肥后20d,晚稻为9-10d。虽然有机无机肥各半配合施用的水稻产量与单施化肥的相近,均比对照提高约70％,但前者的氮损失少,其氮肥利用率为34.9％,高于化肥处理(33.2％)和有机肥处理(28.0%)。有机无机肥配合施用对提高水稻产量和降低氮肥环境负效应的综合效应最佳。  相似文献

Excessive nitrogen (N) fertilizer input leads to higher N loss via ammonia (NH3) volatilization. Controlled‐release urea (CRU) was expected to reduce emission losses of N. An incubation and a plant growth experiment with Gossypium hirsutum L. were conducted with urea and CRU (a fertilizer mixture of polymer‐coating sulfur‐coated urea and polymer‐coated urea with N ratios of 5 : 5) under six levels of N fertilization rates, which were 0% (0 mg N kg−1 soil), 50% (110 mg N kg−1 soil), 75% (165 mg N kg−1 soil), 100% (220 mg N kg−1 soil), 125% (275 mg N kg−1 soil), and 150% (330 mg N kg−1 soil) of the recommended N fertilizer rate. For each type of N fertilizer, the NH3 volatilization, cotton yield, and N uptake increased with the rate of N application, while N use efficiency reached a threshold and decreased when N application rates of urea and CRU exceeded 238.7 and 209.3 mg N kg−1 soil, respectively. Ammonia volatilization was reduced by 65–105% with CRU in comparison to urea treatments. The N release characteristic of CRU corresponded well to the N requirements of cotton growth. Soil inorganic N contents, leaf SPAD values, and net photosynthetic rates were increased by CRU application, particularly from the full bloom stage to the initial boll‐opening stage. As a result, CRU treatments achieved significantly higher lint yield by 7–30%, and the N use efficiency of CRU treatments was increased by 25–124% relative to that of urea treatments. These results suggest that the application of CRU could be widely used for cotton production with higher N use efficiency and lower NH3 volatilization.  相似文献

Ammonia (NH3) volatilization is the major pathway for mineral nitrogen (N) loss from N sources applied to soils. The information on NH3 volatilization from slow-release N fertilizers is limited. Ammonia volatilization, over a 78-d period, from four slow-release N fertilizers with different proportions of urea and urea polymer [Nitamin 30L (liquid) (L30), Nitamin RUAG 521G30 (liquid) (G30), Nitamin 42G (granular) (N42), and Nitroform (granular) (NF)] applied to a sandy loamy soil was evaluated. An increase in temperature from 20 to 30 °C increased cumulative NH3 volatilization loss in the sandy soil by 1.4-, 1.7-, and 1.8-fold for N42, L30, and G30, respectively. Increasing the proportion of urea in the slow-release fertilizer increased NH3 volatilization loss. At 30 °C, the cumulative NH3 volatilization over 78 d from a sandy soil accounted for 45.6%, 43.9%, 22.4%, and <1% of total N applied as N42, L30, G30, and NF, respectively. The corresponding losses in a loamy soil were 9.2%, 3.1%, and 1.7%. There was a significantly positive correlation between NH3 volatilization rate and concentration of NH4-N released from all fertilizers, except for NF (n = 132; r = 0.359, P = 0.017 for N42; r = 0.410, P = 0.006 for L30; and r = 0.377, P < 0.012 for G30). Lower cumulative NH3 volatilization from a loamy soil as compared to that from a sandy soil appeared to be related to rapid nitrification of NH4-N in the former soil than that in the latter soil. These results indicate the composition of slow-release fertilizer, soil temperature, and soil type are main factors to dominate NH3 volatilization from slow- release fertilizers.  相似文献

Abstract

Dicyandiamide (DCD) is a nitrification inhibitor that has been proposed for use in drill‐seeded rice. Immobilization of fertilizer NH4 +‐N by soil microorganisms under aerobic conditions has been found to be significantly enhanced in the presence of a nitrification inhibitor. The objective of this laboratory study was to determine if DCD significantly delayed nitrification of urea‐derived N, and if this enhanced immobilization of the fertilizer N in the delayed‐flood soil system inherent to dry‐seeded rice culture. Nitrogen‐15‐labeled urea solution, with and without DCD (1: 9 w/w N basis), was applied to a Crowley silt loam (Typic Albaqualf) and the soil was incubated for 10 weeks in the laboratory. The soil was maintained under nonflooded conditions for the first four weeks and then a flood was applied and maintained for the remaining six weeks of incubation. The use of DCD significantly slowed the nitrification of the fertilizer N during the four weeks of nonflooded incubation to cause the (urea + DCD)‐amended soil to have a 2.5 times higher fertilizer‐derived exchangeable NH4+‐N concentration by the end of the fourth week. However, the higher exchangeable NH4+‐N concentration had no significant effect on the amount of fertilizer N immobilized during this period. Immobilization of the fertilizer N appeared to level off during the nonflood period about the second week after application. After flooding, immobilization of fertilizer N resumed and was much greater in the (urea + DCD)‐amended soil that had the much higher fertilizer‐derived exchangeable NH4 +‐N concentration. Immobilization of fertilizer N appeared to obtain a maximum in the urea‐amended soil (18%) about two weeks after flooding and for the (urea + DCD)‐amended soil (28%) about four weeks after flooding.  相似文献

Purpose

With land application of farm effluents from cows during housing or milking as an accepted practice, there are increasing concerns over its effect on nitrogen (N) loss through ammonia (NH3) volatilization. Understanding the relative extent and seasonal variation of NH3 volatilization from dairy effluent is important for the development of management practices for reducing NH3 losses. The objectives of this study were to determine potential NH3 losses from application of different types of dairy effluent (including both liquid farm dairy effluent (FDE) and semi-solid dairy farm manure) to a pasture soil during several contrasting seasons and to evaluate the potential of the urease inhibitor (UI)—N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBTPT, commercially named Agrotain®) to reduce gaseous NH3 losses.

Material and methods

Field plot trials were conducted in New Zealand on an established grazed pasture consisting of a mixed perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.)/white clover (Trifolium repens L.) sward. An enclosure method, with continuous air flow, was used to compare the effects of treatments on potential NH3 volatilization losses from plots on a free-draining volcanic parent material soil which received either 0 (control) or 100 kg N ha?1 as FDE or manure (about 2 and 15 % of dry matter (DM) contents in FDE or manure, respectively) with or without NBTPT (0.25 g NBTPT kg?1 effluent N). The experiment was conducted in the spring of 2012 and summer and autumn of 2013.

Results and discussion

Results showed that application of manure and FDE, both in fresh and stored forms, potentially led to NH3 volatilization, ranging from 0.6 to 19 % of applied N. Difference in NH3 losses depended on the season and effluent type. Higher NH3 volatilization was observed from both fresh and stored manure, compared to fresh and stored FDE. The difference was mainly due to solid contents. The losses of NH3 were closely related to NH4 +-N content in the two types of manure. However, there was no relationship between NH3 losses and NH4 +-N content in either type of FDE. There was no consistent seasonal pattern, although lower NH3 losses from fresh FDE and stored FDE applied in spring compared to summer were observed. Potential NH3 losses from application of fresh FDE or manure were significantly (P?<?0.05) reduced by 27 to 58 % when NBTPT was added, but the UI did not significantly reduce potential NH3 volatilization from stored FDE or manure.

Conclusions

This study demonstrated that NH3 losses from application of FDE were lower than from manure and that UIs can be effective in mitigating NH3 emissions from land application of fresh FDE and manure. Additionally, reducing the application of FDE in summer can also potentially reduce NH3 volatilization from pasture soil.  相似文献

Use of nitrogen (N) fertilizer is underway to increase in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The effect of increasing N rates on ammonia (NH3) volatilization—a main pathway of applied-N loss in cropping systems—has not been evaluated in this region. In two soils (Alfisols, ALF; and Andisols, AND) with maize crop in the East African highlands, we measured NH3 volatilization following urea broadcast at six rates (0–150 kg N ha?1) for 17 days, using a semi-open static chamber method. Immediate irrigation and urea deep placement were tested as mitigation treatments. The underlying mechanism was assessed by monitoring soil pH and mineral N (NH4+ and NO3?) concentrations. More cumulative NH3-N was volatilized in ALF than in AND at the same urea-N rate. Generally, higher urea-N rates increased proportional NH3-N loss (percent of applied N loss as NH3-N). Based on well-fitted sigmoid models, simple surface urea application is not recommended for ALF, while up to 60 kg N ha?1 could be adopted for AND soils. The susceptibility of ALF to NH3 loss mainly resulted from its low pH buffering capacity, low cation exchange capacity, and high urease activity. Both mitigation treatments were effective. The inhibited rise of soil pH but not NH4+ concentration was the main reason for the mitigated NH3-N losses, although nitrification in the irrigation treatment might also have contributed. Our results showed that in acidic soils common to SSA croplands, proportional NH3-N loss can be substantial even at a low urea-N rate; and that the design of mitigation treatments should consider the soil’s inherent capacity to buffer NH3 loss.  相似文献

Abstract

Chemical transformations of ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) and urea‐nitrogen (N), at different rates of application, were studied in a Candler (Typic Quartzipsamment) and Wabasso (sandy, Alfic Haplaquod) sand by incubating fertilized surface soil (from 0 to 15 cm depth) samples at 10% moisture content (by weight) in the laboratory at 25±1°C. During the 7 d incubation, the percentage of transformation of NH4‐N into NO3‐N was 33 to 41 and 37 to 41% in the Candler fine sand and Wabasso sand, respectively, at application rates of 1.00 g N kg1. In a parallel experiment, 85 to 96% of urea applied (equivalent to 0.25 to 1.00 g N kg‐1soil) was hydrolyzed to NH4‐N within 4 d in the Candler soil, whereas it required 7 d to hydrolyze 90 to 95% of the urea applied in the Wabasso soil. No nitrification was evident for 30 days in the Candler fine sand which received urea application equivalent to ≥ 0.50 g N kg‐1. In the urea‐amended Wabasso sand, the formation of NO3 decreased as the rate of urea‐N increased. Possible loss of N from NH3 volatilization or inhibition of activity of nitrifiers due to elevated soil pH (8.7 to 9.2) during the incubation of urea amended soils may have caused very low nitrification.  相似文献

Displacement of NH4+ fixed in clay minerals by fertilizer 15NH4+ is seen as one mechanism of apparent added nitrogen interactions (ANI), which may cause errors in 15N tracer studies. Pot and incubation experiments were carried out for a study of displacement of fixed NH4+ by 15N‐labeled fertilizer (ammonium sulfate and urea). A typical ANI was observed when 15N‐labeled urea was applied to wheat grown on soils with different N reserves that resulted from their long‐term fertilization history: Plants took up more soil N when receiving fertilizer. Furthermore, an increased uptake of 15N‐labeled fertilizer, induced by increasing unlabeled soil nitrogen supply, was found. This ANI‐like effect was in the same order of magnitude as the observed ANI. All causes of apparent or real ANI can be excluded as explanation for this effect. Plant N uptake‐related processes beyond current concepts of ANI may be responsible. NH4+ fixation of fertilizer 15NH4+ in sterilized or non‐sterile, moist soil was immediate and strongly dependent on the rate of fertilizer added. But for the tested range of 20 to 160 mg 15NH4+‐N kg–1, the NH4+ fixation rate was low, accounting for only up to 1.3 % of fertilizer N added. For sterilized soil, no re‐mobilization of fixed 15NH4+ was observed, while in non‐sterile, biologically active soil, 50 % of the initially fixed 15NH4+ was released up to day 35. Re‐mobilization of 15NH4+ from the pool of fixed NH4+ started after complete nitrification of all extractable NH4+. Our results indicate that in most cases, experimental error from apparent ANI caused by displacement of fixed NH4+ in clay is unlikely. In addition to the low percentage of only 1.3 % of applied 15N, present in the pool of fixed NH4+ after 35 days, there were no indications for a real exchange (displacement) of fixed NH4+ by 15N.  相似文献

Summary Poultry manure (PM) is commonly applied to cropland as a fertilizer, usually at rates determined by the nitrogen content of the manure. Limited information is available, however, on the volatilization of ammonia from poultry manure-amended soils, despite the effect these losses may have on the fertilizer value of the manure. This study was initiated to determine the influence of incorporation and residue cover on NH3 losses from PM-amended soils. In the first experiment, a dynamic flow technique was used to measure NH3 losses from 18 manures applied to a bare soil surface at a rate of 12 Mg ha-1. In the second experiment, 3 of the 18 manures were incorporated either immediately, 24 h or 72 h after application. The third experiment compared the same three manures applied to a bare soil surface or to corn or soybean residues. Surface application of the manures resulted in the loss of from 4 to 31% of the total N applied in the manures. Incorporation of the PM with soil significantly reduced NH3 loss with the greatest decrease following immediate incorporation. Crop residues either had no effect or slightly reduced NH3 volatilization losses relative to PM application to a bare soil surface. Ammonia volatilization was not well correlated with individual manure properties, but a multiple regression approach using manure pH and total N content offered some promise as a means to segregate manures of the basis of volatilization potential.  相似文献

Abstract

In a laboratory study, ammonia (NH3) was trapped from 10 g soil units treated with 10 mg urea‐N, 10 mg urea‐N plus 50 ug N‐(n‐butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT), or 10 mg urea‐N plus 50 ug phenyl‐phosphorodiamidate (PPD). The soil was a Dothan loamy sand with pH levels adjusted to 6.0, 6.5, and 6.9 prior to N application. After 12 days, NBPT reduced NH3 volatilization 95 to 97%, while PPD reduced it 19 to 30%. Although NH3 loss was positively related to initial soil pH, there was no interaction between pH and urease inhibitor. In a field study, NH3 was trapped in semi‐closed chambers from 134 kg N/ha surface applied to corn (Zea mays L.) 6 weeks after planting. Nine days after N application, NH3 losses were 20.5, 1.5, 1.5, and 0.2 kg N/ha from urea, urea plus 0.25% NBPT, urea plus 0.50% NBPT, and ammonium nitrate, respectively. Covariance analysis showed that percent organic matter was negatively related to NHL losses. The soil properties, initial pH, CEC, and percent sand, did not vary enough to affect NH3 volatilization. In conclusion, in both the laboratory and the field, NBPT exhibited strong control of NH3 volatilization, and could thereby prevent significant loss of surface‐applied urea‐N to crops.  相似文献

Abstract

Volatilization of ammonia derived from nitrogen (N) fertilizers and its possible reabsorption by crops depend on specific soil, climate, and atmospheric conditions, as well as the method of fertilizer application and plant architecture. In an experiment carried out in Piracicaba, State of São Paulo, Brazil, the volatilization of ammonia derived from urea, ammonium sulfate, and natural soil were quantified using static semi‐open N‐ammonia (NH3) collectors. Fertilizers were top‐dressed under the plant canopy on top of dead leaf mulch. In another experiment, the reabsorption of the volatilized ammonia by plants was quantified using 15N‐labeled urea. Results showed, as expected, that volatilization derived from urea was seven times more intense in relation to ammonium sulfate, whose volatilization was very low, and slightly more than the natural volatilization from soil at pH 5.3. The loss of ammonia from the ammonium sulfate was very low, little more than twice of that of the natural soil. Through isotopic labeling, it was verified that 43% of the volatilized N‐NH3 was reabsorbed by coffee plants, which gives evidence that volatilization losses are greatly reversed through this process.  相似文献
