Nitrogen mineralization in soils amended with organic by-products of olive oil and sugarbeet processing industries

Mineralization of organic-N supplied te two different types of soils by an alpechín (olive-oil mill waste water)-compost and a beet vinasse after three consecutive years was studied. Results were compared with those obtained for a mineral fertilizer treatment and a control (unfertilized). N-mineralization can be described by a first order kinetic model. Both organic residues produced an important increase in me organic-N loading of the soils which is slowly released over a time.
