Agronomic Efficiency of Animal-Derived Organic Fertilizers and Their Effects on Biology and Fertility of Soil: A Review

Abstract: Healthy soils are essential for progressive agronomic activities. Organic fertilization positively affects agro-ecosystems by stimulating plant growth, enhancing crop productivity and fruit quality and improving soil fertility. Soil health and food security are the key elements of Organic Agriculture 3.0. Landfilling and/or open-dumping of animal wastes produced from slaughtering cause environmental pollution by releasing toxic substances, leachate and greenhouse gases. Direct application of animal carcasses t… Show more

“…We estimated the soil microbial biomass by measuring the C, the N and the P (C-BIO, N-BIO e P-BIO) retained inside soil microbial cells [28,29] because their values may change quickly due to changes in the environment, so that, higher values indicated better soils for microbial and plant growth [42][43][44]. In this study, the application of CS increased C-BIO during maize growth and the application of CS and PL increased the N-BIO (Table 3), which indicates that the application of animal manure is improving soil conditions for microbial growth [9,19,45]. However, the application of CS and PL also increased the emissions of CO 2 per mass of microbial biomass, resulting in higher qCO 2 (Table 3).…”

“…In this study, increases in COT (i.e., in PL treatment) were accompanied by increases in macro and microporosity and decreases in soil density (Table 2). The changes caused by application of PL on physical soil attributes are highly desirable for crop systems since less dense soils (and with more pores) result in higher water infiltration and aeration, with higher microbial and plant growth [8,12,19,23].…”

“…The use of OMFs also improves soil organic matter content, soil microbial biomass, cation exchange capacity, complexation of metals, and improved nutrient release rates [4][5][6]. Furthermore, OMFs have been reported to prevent N losses from soil by leaching [7].…”

“…эффективности возделывания сельскохозяйственных культур является применение в системе севооборотов органических удобрений -переработанных отходов животного происхождения [4]. В Крыму, из-за значительного сокращения поголовья животных за последние десятилетия внесение органических удобрений снизилось с 8,2 до 0,4 т/га посевных площадей [5].…”
