Tuesday, September 4, 2018

A new paper, co-authored by Dr. Fereidoun Rezanezhad, has been published in Journal of Environmental Management. The article, titled "Retention modes of manure-fecal coliforms in soil under saturated hydraulic condition", investigated fecal coliform retention mode for three soil textures. Highlights of the work include:

  • Soil texture and manure types controlled bacteria deposition;

  • Poultry manure-released bacteria are more affected by soil texture;

  • Physical manure properties affected maximum transported and retained bacteria; and

  • Solubility of the manure components is important for manure management strategies.
