  • forecasting turkey s cattle and Sheep Manure based biomethane potentials till 2026
    Biomass & Bioenergy, 2020
    Co-Authors: Mehmet Melikoglu, Zeynep Kubra Menekse
    Abstract:

    Abstract In this study, Turkey's cattle and Sheep Manure based biomethane potentials are forecasted till 2026. Novel to this study, semi-empirical models based on per capita meat consumption and milk production are used to forecast Turkey's cattle and Sheep population. It is estimated that Turkey's cattle and Sheep population in 2026 could reach up to 18.7 and 39.2 million, respectively. At these population levels, Turkey's cattle and Sheep Manure based biomethane generation could reach up to 1.99 billion m3 and 0.15 billion m3, respectively. This is equal to a total of nearly 2.14 billion m3 of biomethane in 2026. This amount of biomethane could provide nearly 6,600 GWh of electricity or supply nearly 2.9% of Turkey's natural gas demand in 2026.

  • effects of sodic water on soil sodicity and nutrient leaching in poultry and Sheep Manure amended soils
    Geoderma, 2009
    Co-Authors: Mohsen Jalali, Faranak Ranjbar
    Abstract:

    Abstract The need to use saline and sodic waters for irrigating agricultural lands has increased due to a shortage of fresh water resources, especially in arid and semi-arid regions. One way to decrease undesirable effects of sodic waters on the physical and chemical properties of soils is to apply organic and chemical amendments. In this study, the effects of two organic fertilizers (poultry and Sheep Manure), and gypsum were evaluated in soil that received sodic water. These materials were added to a sandy loam soil at the rate of 5%, after which the treated soils and a control sample were incubated for one month at field capacity at 25–30 °C. Column leaching experiments using treated soils were then conducted under saturated conditions using two types of NaCl–CaCl 2 solutions and three sodium adsorption ratios (SAR) (0, 10, 40) with a constant ionic strength (50 mmol l − 1 ). The results indicated that the application of Sheep and poultry Manure to soils caused an increase in cation exchange capacity (CEC) and greater adsorption of cations such as calcium, magnesium and potassium than sodium (Na + ). Conversely, the addition of organic amendments led to increased Na + leaching and a lower exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP). The ESP of the control soil after leaching with solutions with SAR of 10 and 40 increased significantly, but the level of sodification in treated soils was lower. The ESP of the poultry and Sheep Manures treated soils after leaching with solution with SAR 40 was significantly lower than control soil. Specifically, the rate of soil sodification in the treated soils declined in the following order: control soil > Sheep Manure treated soil > poultry Manure treated soil > gypsum treated soil. Finally, the effects of gypsum on the sodification of soil by SAR 10 solution were the same as the effects of poultry Manure, whereas the loss of cations and anions from poultry and Sheep Manure treated soils was greater than the loss from gypsum treated and control soils.

  • Sheep Manure vermicompost supplemented with a native diazotrophic bacteria and mycorrhizas for maize cultivation
    Bioresource Technology, 2008
    Co-Authors: Federico Antonio Gutierrezmiceli, B Moguelzamudio, Miguel Abudarchila, Vicente Federico Gutierrezoliva, Luc Dendooven
    Abstract:

    An orthogonal experimental design L9 (3 4 ) with 10 repetitions was used to investigate the effect of Glomus claroideum (0, 1 or 2 g � 1 plant), G. fasciculatum (0, 1 or 2 g plant � 1 ), native diazotrophic bacteria (0, 10 3 and 10 5 UFC ml � 1 ) and Sheep Manure vermicompost (0%, 5% and 10% v/v) on maize plant growth, N and P in leaves and mycorrhization percent. Vermicompost explained most of the variation found for leaf number, wet weight, stem height, and diameter. Both mycorrhizas increased the plant wet weight but G. fasciculatum the most. Mycorrhization increased the P content, but not the N content. Mycorrhizal colonization increased when diazotrophic bacteria and vermicompost were added. It was found that weight of maize plants cultivated in peat moss amended with vermicompost increased when supplemented with G. fasciculatum and diazotrophic bacteria. 2008 Elsevier Ltd.

  • fruit characteristics of bell pepper cultivated in Sheep Manure vermicompost substituted soil
    Journal of Plant Nutrition, 2008
    Co-Authors: Maria Angela Oliva Llaven, Jose Luis Guzman Jimenez, Blanca Irene Cabrera Coro, Reiner Rinconrosales, Joaquin Montes Molina, Luc Dendooven, Federico Antonio Gutierrezmiceli
    Abstract:

    ABSTRACT The effects of earthworm-processed Sheep Manure (vermicompost) on growth, productivity, and characteristics of bell pepper fruits (Capsicum annum) (cv ‘Ancho supremo’) were investigated in a greenhouse experiment. Six treatments were applied combining vermicompost and soil in 0:1, 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4, and 1:5 (v/v) ratios. Plant characteristics were measured 21 and 90 days after transplanting. Addition of vermicompost increased plant size significantly with 8 cm in the 1:3 vermicompost: soil treatment compared to the unamended soil after 21 days, but no significant differences were found after 90 days. Seven more flowers were found in the 1:2 vermicompost: soil treatment and four in the 1:3 vermicompost: soil treatment compared to the unamended soil after 90 days. The number of marketable fruits per plant was significantly 1.5 and 1.9 times greater in the 1:2 and 1:3 vermicompost: soil treatments compared to plants cultivated in unamended soil after 90 days. The addition of vermicompost to soil in...

  • trichoderma harzianum in combination with Sheep Manure amendment enhances soil suppressiveness of fusarium wilt of tomato
    Phytopathologia Mediterranea, 2009
    Co-Authors: Radwan M Barakat, Mohammad I Almasri
    Abstract:

    The effect that the biocontrol agent Trichoderma harzianum (isolate Jn14) in combination with an amendment of Sheep Manure has on the soil suppressiveness of Fusarium wilt of tomato was investigated over a 28-month period. A combination of T. harzianum and organic amendment at concentrations (w:w) of 6 and 10% reduced tomato wilt by 21–36 % and 29–36% respectively, after 0–28 months of soil incubation. When the amendment was added at concentration of 2%, the wilt was suppressed only after 18–28 months. A combination of T. harzianum and the amendment at 6% also increased tomato plant fresh weights by 52% after 28 months, and the 10% amendment increased fresh weights by 56, 40, and 63%, after 18, 24, and 28 months respectively, compared to the experimental controls. Organic amendment at the higher concentrations further stimulated T. harzianum populations, enhanced microbial activity against Fusarium oxysporum in the soil and reduced pathogen populations. Without T. harzianum , the organic amendment at a concentration of 10% reduced disease by only 22, 24, and 23% and only after 18, 24 and 28 months of soil incubation respectively, compared with the controls. However, tomato wilt was not reduced at a 2% Manure concentration in less than 12 months of incubation. Organic amendment alone at 6 and 10% reduced the pathogen population by 25% and 37% respectively after 28 months of soil incubation compared with the control. T. harzianum produced fungitoxic metabolites that reduced mycelial growth of Fusarium by 37% and conidium germination by 55% when the pathogen was grown on potato dextrose agar amended with a T. harzianum culture filtrate.

  • The effect of Trichoderma harzianum in combination with organic amendment on soil suppressiveness to Rhizoctonia solani.
    Phytopathologia Mediterranea, 2008
    Co-Authors: Radwan M Barakat
    Abstract:

    Summary. The effect of Sheep Manure amendment and the biocontrol agent Trichoderma harzianum Rifai on bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) damping off and on fungal activity including Rhizoctonia solani in the soil was investigated over a 24-month period. A combination of T. harzianum and Sheep Manure at all concentrations tested reduced damping off caused by R. solani after Manure incubation in the soil for 0–24 months compared to the control at zero time. Disease reduction was 50% after 24 months with the highest concentration of organic amendment (10%). Disease reduction increased with increasing concentration of organic amendment and with the duration of the incubation time. A combination of T. harzianum and Sheep Manure reduced both the total fungal population and the R. solani population after 12 and 24 months. However, the population of T. harzianum increased with increasing concentration of Sheep Manure and duration of incubation. The incubation time had a greater effect on the T. harzianum population than did the concentration of the Sheep Manure. Sheep Manure alone was less effective in reducing bean damping off and improving bean growth than a combination of both Manure and T. harzianum. In conclusion, the soil suppressiveness to R. solani damping off was enhanced when T. harzianum isolate Jn14 was added to organically amended soil, and this degree of enhancement increased over time.
