Italian ryegrass swards reduce N leaching via greater N uptake and lower drainage over perennial ryegrass cultivars varying in cool season growth rates
(Taylor & Francis on behalf of the Royal Society of New Zealand, 2018-02-04)
Pasture mitigation strategies are needed to reduce the negative effects of nitrate (NO₃⁻) leaching from intensive pastoral livestock production systems. We explored the capability of pasture grasses with different cool ...
The effect of four different pasture species compositions on nitrate leaching losses under high N loading
(Wiley on behalf of the British Society of Soil Science, 2014-03)
Nitrate (NO₃⁻) leaching can cause elevated concentrations of NO₃⁻-N in water, which can have adverse impacts on water quality and human health. In grazed pasture systems, most of the NO₃⁻-N leaching occurs beneath animal ...
