Abstract

Nutrient losses have to be avoided in agricultural systems for agronomic and environmental reasons. However, they are known to be potentially large and variable. Results from twenty nine trials aiming at quantifying nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K) and carbon (C) flows and losses from barn and manure storage for beef cattle (Belgian Blue double-muscled breed) were synthesized. They included variation in barn type (tied stall and deep litter), leading to contrasted manure types (respectively semi-solid manure and deep litter manure) of small groups (n=4) of heifers or bulls.
