Abstract

In the sod-podzolic soil subject to water erosion, nitrogen incorporation of perennial grasses (clover, thimophy) is reduced in microbial biomass. When applying perennial grasses phytomass, nitrogen is lost by 4.6 times from the noneroded soil and by 1.5 times less from the eroded soil as compared to applying ammonium sulfate.
