Dry-land farming in arid and semiarid regions requires minimization of rainwater losses. Major causes for the loss of rainwater are: (i) runoff due to seal formation by raindrop impact, and (ii) evaporation from the wet soil surface. Mulching the soil surface is an effective way to prevent seal formation and water losses. We hypothesized that composted municipal solid waste (CMSW) could be used for...
Composts are stabilized organic residues that are expected to decompose slowly in soil. When applied annually, they may increase the load of organic nitrogen that will eventually mineralize, and subsequently nitrates in excess of crop demand will be leached towards ground waters. A 4-year field experiment was conducted on a Xerosol in the Central Negev in Israel, in which composted municipal solid...
