Comment:
Applied solid manure (70% moisture) to ASP1 plots in LTAR site. Did not apply manure to NO-Manure Microplots, which were covered with a tarp during the manure application. Applied at a rate of 16,000 lbs manure per acre, which equated to a total of 88 lbs N, 43 lbs P2O5, and 124 lbs K2O per acre. Manure was not incorporated, so the expectation is that only 25% of the nitrogen would be available to the crop primarily due to ammonia volatilization losses.
