| Abstract | Improper utilization of composted manure might increase risk of nutrients leaching and phosphorus (P) accumulation, hence causing eutrophication and threatening the ecological safety of river. In the current study, composted manure from a goat feedlot was applied to a perennial pasture in the Three Gorges region to evaluate its effects on pasture yield, NO$_{3}$–N leaching, and phosphorus accumulation in soil.Composted goat manure was either topdressed by hand or incorporated by hoe in the 0–20 cm soil depth between rows at four application rates (15, 22.5, 30, and 37.5 Mg DM ha$^{−1}$) and an unamended control without application of composted manure. The composted manure was applied five times, with 20 % of the designated amount each, in July, September, and November 2005 and January and April 2006. A combination leaching–incubation experiment (soil-resin-core) was conducted to measure the amount of NO$_{3}$–N leached from soils.Soil total nitrogen and P concentrations increased as amount of composted manure applied was increased. Soil NO$_{3}$–N and NO$_{3}$–N leached from soil varied across seasons. Soil available P reached 92, 132, 225, and 261 mg kg$^{−1}$ when 15, 22.5, 30, and 37.5 Mg ha$^{−1}$ of composted manure was incorporated, respectively, and soil available P reached 39, 78, 86, and 132 mg kg$^{−1}$ for corresponding treatments for topdressed treatment, indicating soil available P accumulated with increased manure applied. Pasture yield increased as application rate of composted manure increased. For the topdressed treatments, the highest pasture yields were obtained at 37.5 Mg ha$^{−1}$ of composted manure applied. As a comparison, the highest pasture yields was obtained at 22.5 Mg ha$^{−1}$ when composted manure was incorporated, further increase of composted manure decreased the pasture yields.Excess use of composted goat manure significantly increased the risk of soil NO$_{3}$–N leaching and P accumulation. It is suggested that the composted goat manure should be incorporated at rate of less than 22.5 Mg ha$^{−1}$ to minimize NO$_{3}$–N leaching and P accumulation while maintaining high pasture production. The split application is also recommended to meet the growth requirement of pastures, hence less NO$_{3}$–N leaching and soil P accumulation, which is of importance in the Three Gorges region. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
