Leaching of nutrients in cultivated soils under application of residual water of pig farming

This work aimed to evaluate the impacts on leachate from drainage lysimeters receiving application of different rates of pig farming residual water (PRW) during soybean crop cycle. The experiment was conducted at the Agricultural Engineering Experimental field of UNIOESTE. The soil was classified as Rhodic Ferralsols. There were twenty-four drainage lysimeters where soybean cultivar CD 214 was sown. Four PRW rates (0; 100; 200 and 300 m³ ha-1) were applied to the soil seven days before sowing in a single application combined with two fertilizations (with and without recommended dose) during sowing, and three repetitions per treatment. Three leachate collections were carried out in each experimental plot. The first was conducted 40 days after sowing (DAS); the second at 72 DAS, and the third at the end of crop cycle (117 DAS). pH, calcium, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, and total nitrogen were evaluated. Based on the results, it was possible to observe that pH and Mg values in the leachate did not suffer influence of PRW application and fertilization. K+, P and Ca+2 in the leachate were higher for higher PRW rates.
