Abstract:
This research was conducted with Elephant grass and Sudan grass to determine the nitrous oxide emissions from forages systems irrigated with diary effluent and municipal wastewater. A clay soil and sandy soil were irrigated with diary effluent, and municipal wastewater at three N rates, respectively. Pot studies are currently in progress and findings related to N2O emissions will be presented.
