Available nitrogen and phosphorus in soil amended with fresh or composted cattle manure containing straw or wood-chip bedding
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Limited research exists on the effect of fresh versus composted beef cattle manure containing straw or wood chips on available N and P in the Great Plains region of North America. Barley was grown (1999-2007) on an irrigated clay loam soil in southern Alberta where organic amendments and fertilizer were applied annually for 9 yr from 1998 to 2006. The treatments were three rates (13, 39, 77 Mg dry wt. ha -1 ) of fresh manure (FM, stockpiled for up to 2 m) or composted manure (CM) containing either straw (ST) or wood chip (WD) bedding, one inorganic (IN) fertilizer treatment, and a unamended control. The soil was sampled in the fall of 1999 to 2002, 2004, 2006, and 2007 and was analyzed for soil inorganic N (SIN), NO 3 -N, NH 4 -N, and soil test P (STP). Soil mineralizable N was also determined on surface soil samples collected from 1999, 2002, 2004, and 2007. Manure type had a significant effect on SIN, NO 3 -N, STP, and soil mineralizable N, but the effects varied with year or bedding and rate (SIN), rate or year (NO 3 -N), rate and year (soil mineralizable N), or bedding and year (STP). Analysis of covariance for total N or P applied versus SIN or STP after nine applications (2007) indicated greater N release for FM and CM bedded with straw than with wood, whereas P release was similar for FM and CM with straw or wood. Soil NO 3 -N for the organic amendments exceeded the maximum agronomic limit of 21 mg NO 3 -N kg -1 for Alberta after 6, 4, and 3 yr of application at the three increasing application rates. The STP for the organic amendments exceeded the maximum agronomic limit of 60 mg kg -1 for Alberta after 4, 2, and 2 yr of application at the three increasing rates. Overall, manure type and bedding material influenced the potential for nutrient losses to the environment through accumulation of soil inorganic N and soil test P; however, their effects on nutrient accumulation varied with year and application rate. Key words: Soil available nitrogen, soil available phosphorus, fresh manure, composted manure, mineralizable N

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
