“…Los metales pesados podrían acumularse en el suelo tras aplicaciones a largo plazo de purín y aunque no se alcanzasen niveles fitotóxicos (Berenguer, Cela, Santiveri, Boixadera & Lloveras, 2008), las lombrices de tierra podrían estar en riesgo (Becquer et al, 2005) debido a su hábito alimenticio (ingestión de suelo y MO). Esta situación podría darse incluso cuando los residuos orgánicos cumpliesen con los requisitos para uso agrícola (Renaud et al, 2017). Estos potenciales riesgos ecotoxicológicos requerirían de mayor experimentación.…”

“…Los purines de cerdo, según el tipo de granja de la que provienen: cerdos en engorde (PE), madres reproductoras (PM) o en ciclo cerrado presentan composiciones diferentes (Sánchez & González, 2005;Yagüe, Bosch-Serra & Boixadera, 2012). Por ello, las aplicaciones de PE y PM a largo plazo podrían incidir sobre las propiedades del suelo de manera diferenciada, cambios a los que podrían ser sensibles determinados organismos del suelo, como las lombrices de tierra (Renaud et al, 2017).…”

RESUMEN Las lombrices de tierra participan en el mantenimiento de los servicios ecosistémicos del suelo. Su presencia y actividad están influenciadas por las prácticas de manejo, entre ellas la fertilización. El objetivo de esta investigación fue cuantificar en un año bajo barbecho, la abundancia, biomasa y diversidad de especies de lombrices de tierra en respuesta a distintas estrategias de fertilización mantenidas durante 12 años en un agrosistema cerealístico de secano, bajo clima Mediterráneo semiárido. Esta fertilización se basó en purín de cerdo de engorde (PE) y de maternidad (PM), a distintas dosis de peso en fresco y distribuidas en seis tratamientos: tres tratamientos con PE (uno de 30 t ha −1 año −1 aplicado en pre-siembra y otros de 40 y 60 t ha −1 año −1 aplicados en cobertera), dos tratamientos con PM (60 y 90 t ha −1 año −1 aplicados en cobertera) y uno combinando PE y PM (30 t ha −1 año −1 de PE en pre-siembra más 90 t ha −1 año −1 de PM en cobertera). Se incluyó un tratamiento con fertilización mineral (0−FM) que actuaba como control. No hubo variaciones en la abundancia y la biomasa de lombrices registradas según el tipo de fertilización. Se identificaron dos especies de lombrices. La especie endogeica Koinodrilus roseus predominó en cuanto a abundancia (80-100%). La especie anécica Nicodrilus trapezoides no se detectó en las parcelas que habían recibido en cobertera las dos dosis más elevadas de PE, por lo que la ausencia de esta especie puede considerarse como un bioindicador de situaciones de sobrefertilización con PE.

Their presence and activity are influenced by agricultural practices as fertilization. The objective of this research was to identify earthworm species and to quantify their abundance and biomass in a field experiment where different fertilization strategies were applied for a period of 12 years. The experiment was carried out under a semiarid Mediterranean climate, in a fallow year of a rainfed cereal system. Fertilization strategies were based on pig slurries from fattening pigs (PE) and from sows (PM) at different fresh doses distributed in six treatments: three treatments only included PE (one rate was 30 t ha −1 yr −1 applied at pre-sowing, and the other two treatments received 40 and 60 t ha −1 yr −1 applied at cereal tillering), two treatments only included PM (60 and 90 t ha −1 yr −1 applied at cereal tillering) and the last, it combined PE and PM (30 t ha −1 yr −1 of PE at pre-sowing plus 90 t ha −1 yr −1 of PM at cereal tillering). Fertilization included a mineral fertilization treatment (0−FM) acting as a control. There were no variations in the abundance and biomass of earthworms registered according to the type of fertilization. Two earthworm species were identified. The endogeic species Koinodrilus roseus was the most abundant (80%−100%). The anecic species Nicodrilus trap...

“…Soil invertebrate reproduction median effect concentration (EC50) values were taken from Renaud et al (), and reproduction effect concentration, 10% (EC10) values were estimated using the same dataset and the same nonlinear methods used in the calculation of EC50s (including when necessary the square root and/or the χ 2 transformed data). Reproduction experiments were all conducted according to standard protocols and using standard soil invertebrate species widely used in soil ecotoxicology ( Eisenia fetida [Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development ], Folsomia candida [International Organization for Standardization ], Enchytraeus crypticus [International Organization for Standardization ], and Hypoaspis aculeifer [Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development ]).…”

The use of organic wastes as soil amendments can be an important measure to improve soil quality and reduce waste accumulation and landfilling. However, the potential contaminant loads of such wastes, can be a source of environmental concern. Consequently, legislation has been developed to regulate the use of these wastes in agricultural soils. However, the regulations only consider chemical parameters, which are insufficient to establish the level of environmental risk. A possible solution is the use of species sensitivity distributions (SSDs), employing ecotoxicological data from test batteries that could be incorporated into legislation. In the present study, 2 different hazardous concentrations affecting 5 and 50% of the soil community (HC5 and HC50, respectively) were determined using ecotoxicological data (effect concentrations, 10 and 50% [EC10 and EC50, respectively]) for 5 different wastes. The results demonstrate that, as expected, current legislative thresholds do not translate to environmental risk/protection and that SSDs may be an important tool allowing the simple inclusion and interpretation of ecotoxicological data from test batteries in legislation. On the other hand, SSDs must be used with caution because there are still doubts about their actual value in risk prediction and about which estimates provide adequate protection. For instance, the use of HC50EC10 values is not recommended; these values overlap with the more conservative HC5EC50 data, highlighting the fact that the use of lower effect concentrations may not always provide the most protective approach. Also, hazardous concentrations need to be calibrated at the field or semifield level, to verify environmental protection in different soils/environments and the adequacy of standard test organisms.

“…The results obtained in this study demonstrate that the volume of swine manure alone was an inefficient measure for the correct use as agricultural fertilizer, because for a proper use, the composition of the wastes, and particularly the type of soil must be considered. Finally, according to Renaud et al (2017), when combining chemical and ecotoxicological data, it is possible to postulate as to potential sources of toxicity, contributing to better waste management practices and safer organic soil correction products.…”

The objective of this study was to measure the impact on part of soil fauna of application of non-stabilized (fresh) manure from post-weaning pigs fed diets formulated with or without dual-purpose wheat, and with or without the use of antimicrobial growth-promoting additives (100 mg kg-1 doxycycline + 50 mg kg-1 colistin + 250 mg kg-1 Zn oxide). Two species of edaphic organisms were evaluated, the springtails Folsomia candida and the earthworms Eisenia andrei, using ecotoxicological avoidance behavior tests. The treatments were swine manure from: RR: Reference Ration; WR: Wheat Reference; RA: Reference Ration + Antimicrobial Additives; WA: Wheat Reference + Antimicrobial Additives). The doses of waste used for treatments were as follows: 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 65 and 100 m³ ha-1 for the springtails and 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 65 m³ ha-1 for the earthworms, applied in the Oxisol. The experimental design was completely randomized with five replicates. The use of non-stabilized swine manure did not affect the avoidance behavior of F. candida at any dose, regardless of the use of antimicrobial or wheat additives. For E. andrei, there was avoidance behavior at all treatments and doses used. These avoidance behaviors were related to the sensitivity of each species of soil organism. The avoidance behavior for earthworms was related to the doses of non-stabilized swine manure in soil and not to the various diets and/or the use of growth-promoting additives.
