Abstract
AbstractThe rising generation of organic waste (OW) can be a concern, representing at the same time a valuable opportunity for the phosphorous (P) recycling; however, yet little is known about plant-available P release from this source. In this work, two anaerobic digestates, from agro- (AWD) and bio-waste (BWD), and their respective composts (AWC and BWC), were selected to assess their P-release via sequential chemical extraction (SCE) and P species via solution 31P-NMR in NaOH+EDTA extracts. These products were also tested for the relative-P efficiency (RPEsoil) in a soil incubation (30 mg P kg−1), in comparison with a chemical-P source and a reference compost. The organic products were also compared for the ryegrass relative-P efficiency (RPEtissue) at the same P-rate (30 mg P kg−1), in a 112-day pot experiment in an Olsen-P poor soil (<3 mg kg−1), under a non-limiting N environment. The NaOH+EDTA extractions showed that inorganic P prevailed in all samples as proven by solution 31P-NMR. SCE showed very different labile-P (H2O+NaHCO3) and AW doubling BW products (84 vs. 48%); this was also confirmed by the soil incubation test in which AWD and AWC attained the best RPEsoil. Pot tests generally confirmed laboratory outcomes showing that AWD and AWC attained the best RPEtissue, from 3 to 4-folds of the BWD and BWC performance. The results showed that the feedstock mainly affects plant P availability from recycled OW and that their SCE are very informative in the description of plant-available P from this type of products to be used in rational fertilization plan.
