| Abstract |
The utilization potential and the environmental effects of applying swine lagoon effluent to Coastal bermudagrass were evaluated for six years. Lagoon effluent was applied to 9m x 9m plots by weekly sprinkler irrigation during the growing season. Forage yield and quality, soil nutrient levels and water quality and quantity of runoff and subsurface lateral flow were evaluated. The results indicated that swine lagoon effluent can be an excellent source of nutrients for Coastal bermudagrass but water quality considerations, nitrate levels in forage, and long-term soil effects must be evaluated when determining acceptable maximum application rates. |
