- Abstract
The article presents a study on the impact of mechanical aeration of soil on phosphorus losses from grasslands. It analyzes data from various studies conducted on grasslands fertilized with phosphorus and states that mechanical application of phosphorus to grasslands can result in greater forage productivity, but it might also result in high phosphorus concentration in surface runoff and eutrophication. It discusses various factors that can control phosphorus losses in mechanical soil aeration which include internal drainage, type of aeration implement, and type of manure applied.
