“…The control, and farmyard manure treatment, seem to be most stable from this aspect. It is to state that our results are consistent with the conclusions drawn by Vaněk et al (2003), who accentuate the importance of farmyard manure application in the fertilization system as for the value of the potential of easily mineralizable nitrogen in the soil. Nitrogen content in the form of nitrates and organic solutes was monitored in lysimetric waters since 1994.…”

The effect of different systems of N fertilization on nitrogen balance and N transformation in the soil was studied in long-term stationary experiments (1991)(1992)(1993)(1994)(1995)(1996)(1997)(1998)(1999)(2000)(2001)(2002) with successive growing of maize. Average dry matter yield for the control without fertilization in the period 1991-2002 was 11.67 t of dry matter per ha, which was by 2-2.9 t less than for fertilization treatments. Statistically significant differences between the control and fertilization treatments were determined for the first time in the 4 th experimental year. Average nitrogen uptake by the aboveground biomass was 116 kg N/ha for the control, 162-170 kg N/ha for fertilization treatments. All experimental treatments had a negative balance of N inputs and outputs, and it was -1394 kg N/ha for the control (for 12 experimental years). After the application of mineral fertilizers, a lower content of total carbon and nitrogen was measured in the topsoil compared to the control and treatments with organic fertilization. The changes in the nitrogen regime of soil were characterized by the content of extractable nitrogen and carbon in extractions by 0.01M CaCl 2 . With respect to the content of mineral nitrogen and easily extractable organic nitrogen and carbon in the topsoil the control was most stable followed by farmyard manure treatment. Soil lysimeters were installed in these experiments (depth 60 cm, size 0. Maize is the most important annual forage crop in this country. Its production of dry matter and energy substances per unit area is high. It is a crucial crop for specialized dairy farms where intensive applications of farmyard manure and slurry are carried out and where it is grown for several successive years (Ammon et al. 1990). Maize belongs to the group of crops called consumers of organic matters (Škarda 1982) with negative impacts on soil productivity. This is the reason why nutrition experiments with successive growing of maize were established on plots of the Department of Agrochemistry and Plant Nutrition of Czech University of Agriculture in Prague.The objective of our investigations was to determine changes in nitrogen balance and in the intensity of transformation of nitrogen and other nutrients in the soil under a negative management system, and changes in the parameters of soil productivity (Balík et al. 1995). MATERIAL AND METHODSStationary experiments with successive growing of silage maize were established at an experimental station in Červený Újezd locality in 1990, belongs to the Agronomic Faculty of Czech University of Agriculture in Prague (height 405 m above sea level). The locality lies in a sugar beet production area. Average annual air temperature is 7.6°C, average annual precipitation amount is 549 mm. Average temperature for the growing season (months IV-IX) is 13.9°C, average precipitation amount for the growing season is 361 mm (Table 1). At the beginning of experiments the reserve of available P in topsoil was in the category high reserve, K good...

“…4.3). The nitrate available in the soil falls in the same range with the soil nitrate analysed at different growing season from Dobra Voda and Chvalina farms during Spring and Autumn ranging between 4 and 14 ppm N, though some of the values from this study are higher [26]. These higher values of nitrate can be as a result of bambara groundnut's ability to fix nitrogen through symbiosis with the bacteria in the root nodules.…”

“…These higher values of nitrate can be as a result of bambara groundnut's ability to fix nitrogen through symbiosis with the bacteria in the root nodules. According to Vaněk, Šilha and Němeček [26], it can also be as result of the activities of leguminous crops in which case bambara groundnut is one. The CEC of soil samples in this study (between 15.19 and 21.64 meq/100g) fall within the range of CEC of organically and conventionally managed apple orchard ranging from 19.23 to 20.28 cmol/kg [27], even though no fertilizer or organic manure was applied to bambara groundnut in this study.…”

Bambara groundnut, an underutilized crop has been proved to be an indigenous crop in Africa with the potential for food security. The rhizosphere of Bambara groundnut like other legumes contains several important bacteria that have not been explored for their plant growth-promoting properties. The aim of this research was to determine the potentials of rhizobacteria from Bambara groundnut soil samples as either biofertilizer or biocontrol agents or both to help provide sustainable agriculture in Africa and globally. Analyses of Bambara groundnut rhizospheric soil samples included chemical analysis such as nitrogen content analysis using extractable inorganic nitrogen method as well as cation exchangeable capacity using ammonium acetate method. Plant growth-promoting properties of isolated rhizobacteria tested include indole acetic acid, hydrogen cyanide, phosphate solubilization, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate and ammonia production activities using standard methods. In addition, antifungal assay dual culture method was used to analyze the biocontrol properties of the isolates. Phylogenetic analysis using 16S rRNA was also carried out on the isolates. Isolated rhizobacteria from bambara groundnut rhizosphere were cultured. All the isolates were able to produce ammonia and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate while 4.65%, 12.28% and 27.91% produced Hydrogen cyanide, Indole acetic acid and solubilized phosphate respectively, making them important targets as biocontrol and biofertilizer agents. The growth of Fusarium graminearum was suppressed in vitro by 6.98% of the isolates. Plant growth promoting activities of rhizobacteria from bambara groundnut rhizosphere reveals that it has great potentials in food security as biofertilizer and biocontrol agent against fungal and bacterial pathogens.

The effect of chicken manure after different disposal methods (water-logged composting, GOF; anaerobic digestion, BR; thermophilic composting, ROF) on vegetable growth and environmental risk was investigated under the tomato-celery-tomato field. Results showed that organic fertilizers significantly increased vegetable yield and quality, but with inappropriate application may cause serious environmental risk such as nitrate pollution. Maximum vegetable yield of 80.9, 68.3, 112.7 t·ha−1 (first, second and third rotation crop, respectively) with best vegetable quality was obtained in ROF treatment. The highest N use efficiency with the least nitrate enrichment in soil was also found in ROF treatment. Moreover, under this fertilization way, nitrate concentration in soil leachate dropped to 6.4 mg·L−1, which satisfied the threshold (<10 mg·L−1) for drinking water set by the US Environmental Protection Agency. Thus, ROF was suggested to be the optimal fertilizer with the best yield, quality and the least environmental risk under the “tomato-celery” rotation system.
