Abstract: | The N balance has been studied in detail in the basins of small rivers under agricultural management and forest use. The N content of the watershed territory of large forests was found to be practically balanced. In the river basin where the land was intensively farmed for 10 yr, N input increased five times through mineral fertilizers, and one-and-a-half times through organic fertilizers. Consequently, the amount of N returned to the atmosphere as a result of denitrification increased by one-and-a-half times, and that leached into the ground water, increased from 0.8 to 6.5 mg 1?1 N. |
