EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON FECAL BACTERIA MOVEMENT IN SOIL AMENDED WITH SLURRY

Zbigniew Paluszak, Halina Olszewska, Barbara Breza-Boruta

 

ABSTRACT



The aim of study was to estimate survival, the rate and range of migration of fecal bacteria in soils fertilized with bovine slurry. The research showed that a great majority of fecal bacteria was retained in higher parts of soil profiles. The precipitation, physical and chemical properties of soil, the bacterial population density used in experiment were most important factors that influenced infiltration of fecal microorganisms.

Key words: fecal bacteria, soil, slurry..
