Utilization of Buffalo's Manure for Forage Production in Sustainable Agriculture.

The dairy activity is a successful sector of economy in terms of livestock productivity, which requires a farming management strictly linked to the use of agronomic inputs. Manure is a secondary product which represents a waste material that jeopardizes the environment making soil, underground water and air polluted. Cropping management performed on correct agronomic use of manure, allows the opportunity to increase the flow of nutrient cycling in farms for forage crop production. The experiments established on the utilization of manure for dairy purpose evidenced that its use in dairy farmers may substitute the conventional fertilization without reducing the biomass production, soil fertility and sustainability of the cropping systems.
