農地リン流出を抑制する土壌添加剤開発(Soil additive devised by Penn State researchers may cut farm phosphorus runoff)

ペンシルベニア州立大学の研究は、農地からのリン流出を抑制する新しい土壌添加剤を開発した。リンは肥料成分として重要だが、流出すると水域の富栄養化を引き起こす。本手法では土壌中でリンを固定・保持することで流出を低減し、環境負荷を抑えつつ農業生産性を維持できる可能性が示された。実験では効果的な流出削減が確認され、水質保全と持続可能な農業の両立に寄与する技術として期待される。

農地リン流出を抑制する土壌添加剤開発(Soil additive devised by Penn State researchers may cut farm phosphorus runoff)

Abstract

Manure applications can be a source of phosphorus (P) in runoff. This study evaluated whether RhizoSorb, a modified aluminum oxide soil amendment, could reduce water-extractable P (WEP) in the 0- to 7.5-cm soil depth after poultry litter applications. RhizoSorb was applied once at the beginning of the experiment at three rates followed by 3 years of poultry litter applied at three rates in split-plots of each RhizoSorb rate. Poultry litter applications increased the WEP of soil sampled in the fall of each year, with P concentration increasing as a function of litter application rate and years of application. RhizoSorb decreased WEP between 26% and 53% in the first and second year of the study. These results suggest that RhizoSorb may have potential to reduce soluble P losses from poultry litter applications, but further research to measure P losses from in situ runoff is necessary for confirmation.
