Abstract

The fertilizing potential of granulated dehydrated broiler litter (BL) for greenhouse cultivation of lettuce was assessed. Two different experiments were conducted in autumn–winter and spring. Fertilizer treatments included: no fertilization (Control) and application of either ammonium nitrate (M,120 kg N ha-1), a slow-release mineral fertilizer (Mr, 120 kg N ha-1) and increasing rates of BL (60, 80, 120 y 240 kg N ha-1 in autumn-winter and 120, 240 y 360 kg N ha-1 in spring). The fertilizers were applied once at the start of each period, which allowed the residual effect on a second crop to be also assessed. Fertilization with BL at any rate ensured production of lettuce with yields similar to or even higher than fertilization with the other products. The BL fertilizer behaved as a gradual release fertilizer, providing a significant amount of nitrogen for the second crops as a result of the residual effect of the fertilizer applied two months before. The fertilization with BL in doses higher than 120 kg of N ha-1 for the autumn-winter and spring period provided sufficient nutrients to obtain a second cycle with a high percentage of commercial lettuces.
