On the occasion of its twenty-fifth anniversary, in 1985, the
Netherlands Society for Grassland and Fodder Crops (NVWV) agreed to
organize an International Symposium on a topic related to intensive
grass and fodder production systems. The theme selected was "Animal
manure on grassland and fodder crops: Fertilizer or waste?" This
Symposium was organized under the auspices of the European
Grassland Federation and held at the International Agricultural
Centre in Wageningen from 31 August to 3 September 1987. The
problems connected with the disposal of animal waste have received
much attention in recent years, especially in regions with
intensive animal of animal manure per hectare agricul husbandry.
Whereas the production tural land increased strongly, the need for
it decreased because of the introduction of cheap inorganic
fertilizers which are easier to handle and have a more reliable
effect on crop growth. As a consequence, many farmers dispose of
animal manure as cheaply as possible, whilst avoiding damage to
grassland and crops and paying little attention to effective use of
the plants nutrients contained in the manure. Present practices of
manure handling and application often lead to environmental
problems. The rise in awareness of these problems renewed interest
in possibilities to improve the utilization of nutrients from
animal manure in crop production. Research on this topic has been
stimulated in many countries during the last decade and the aim of
this Symposium was to review and assess present-day knowledge."
