5 Sources of N and P to Watersheds in Central United States (1995 GAO report to U.S. Congress) Atmosphere Fertilizer Manure Point Source Nitrogen Phosphorus

6 Manure applications based on the N needs of a crop results in application of P in excess of what the crop can use

8 In Agricultural Phosphorus and Eutropication. USDA-ARS, ARS-149. July A.N. Sharpley, T. Daniel, T. Sims, J. Lemunyon, R. Stevens, and R. Parry

9 Objectives: Develop correlation between runoff P and soil test P on select soils of South Dakota using rainfall simulation. Relate field runoff to indoor runoff.

10 Procedures: Identify Field Sites Select Sites ranging from low to high STP Use National P protocol (SERA-17) Outdoor Rainfall Simulation Indoor Rainfall Simulation

14 Field TDP runoff versus STP Moody: Y = STP ; R 2 = 0.93 Vienna: Y = STP ; R 2 = 0.94 Poinsett: Y = STP ; R 2 = 0.76 Kranzburg: Y = STP ; R 2 = 0.77 Barnes: Y = STP R 2 = 0.76 A TDP (ppm) Olsen P (ppm) Vienna Moody Poinsett Kranzburg Barnes

15 Indoor TDP runoff versus STP Barnes: TDP = STP ; R 2 = 0.91 Poinsett: TDP = STP ; R 2 = 0.97 Kranzburg: TDP = STP ; R 2 = 0.97 Vienna: TDP = STP ;R 2 = 0.96 A TDP (ppm) Olsen-P (ppm) Kranzburg Poinsett Vienna Barnes

16 Conclusions: As STP increases, the amount of phosphorus dissolved P in runoff also increases. The increase is linear over the ranges tested. Field runoff highly correlated to indoor runoff.

17 P Loss on a Watershed Scale Soil test P vs. Runoff P Relationships on a Watershed Scale. Can data from field plots predict P in runoff at the watershed scale?
