• Soil core samples (15 cm)
• Runoff events quantified
and sampled
• Manure removed
Weighed, sampled, analyzed
• Soil core samples
• N retention calculated using
NRC equations
Methods nutrient balance experiments

Methods Nutrient balance experiments
• intake - retention = excretion
• manure, soil balance, runoff
• N losses calculated as difference:
•N lost = N excretion-N manure-N soil-N runoff

Reducing N losses
• Reduce amount of N intake
• Improve C:N ratio in manure
– Decrease diet digestibility
– Promote hindgut fermentation
– Amendment
• Decrease pH of pen surface
• Remove manure more frequently
• Storage and handling
