Brief description
This data package describes a field trial conducted to assess the influence of urea applied with and without a urease inhibitors NBPT, and as a fine particle (FPA) or liquid application (UAN) on loss of the indirect greenhouse gas ammonia (NH3) from a ryegrass pasture (Lolium perenne L) in autumn and spring of 2010. The trial was designed to assess both fertlizer type and seasonal impacts on NH3 loss. Ammonia loss was measured on 50 m diameter circles using a passive ammonia sampling system of Leunig et al (1985) where NH3 was trapped in centrally located acid traps. Data was collected on NH3 captured, soil mineral and urea N, plant biomass production and nitrogen content as well as local climatic conditions.Data time period: 2010-04-12 to 2010-12-23
