Arkansas studies use of poultry litter on rice
ARKANSAS - University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture researchers hope to determine the feasibility of using poultry litter as a fertilizer for rice. Poultry litter contains concentrations of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, the three major nutrients for which Division of Agriculture scientists make recommendations, said Nathan Slaton, assistant professor of crop, soil and environmental sciences and director of soil testing for the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station.
