Reducing gaseous nitrogen loss from stored laying hen manure by the addition of carbohydrates

Abstract: Three separate experiments were conducted to determine if the addition of carbohydrate sources directly to freshly-produced laying hen manure reduced the loss of gaseous nitrogen containing compounds during 7 d of storage. The addition of sucrose (8 g/kg) to the manure resulted in a greater increase in bacterial numbers, a greater loss of carbon and a trend for a reduced loss of nitrogen. Although glucose addition to the manure increased bacterial numbers and tended to increase carbon loss, nitrogen loss incre… Show more

“…The nitrogen should also be supplied at a time when crop productivity is nitrogen-limited (Chambers and Smith, 1998). Various substances have been tested for their efficacy in preventing gaseous nitrogen losses from manure during storage (Pratt et al, 2006). Most manure treatments involve either substances which chemically combine with potential 'pollutants' such as nitrogen or phosphorus or substances which act as adsorbents or chelating agents.…”
