[0061] Seed germination index (GI) is an indicator for evaluating the maturity of livestock and poultry manure compost. The GI of each batch of livestock and poultry manure compost prepared in Example 1 was determined according to the method disclosed in "Organic Fertilizer NY / T 525-2021", and the maturity of each batch of livestock and poultry manure compost was evaluated in combination with the evaluation standard. The evaluation standard is: GI>50% indicates that the livestock and poultry manure compost is basically mature; GI>70% indicates that the livestock and poultry manure compost is completely mature.

The humic acid content is an indicator for evaluating the quality of livestock and poultry manure compost. The humic acid content of each batch of livestock and poultry manure compost prepared in Example 1 was determined by sodium hydroxide extraction-loss on ignition method disclosed in the literature by Tu Qiaoping (Tu Qiaoping.

[0068] The E2 / E3 value is used to track the relative molecular size and aromaticity of organic matter in livestock and poultry manure compost, and is negatively correlated with the molecular weight of organic matter, the number of aromatic structures, and the degree of humification; the E4 / E6 value is the humification coefficient, which is used to indicate the condensation degree of humic acid and the aromatization degree of aromatic components in the organic matter in livestock and poultry manure compost, and is negatively correlated with the condensation degree and aromatization degree of organic matter. The batches of livestock and poultry manure compost prepared in Example 1 were mixed with 0.05 mol / L sodium bicarbonate solution at a solid-liquid ratio of 1:10, and filtered through a 0.45 μm filter membrane to obtain a compost extract; the absorbance values ​​of soluble organic carbon of each compost extract at 254 nm, 365 nm, 465 nm, and 665 nm were determined by ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry, and the E2 value, E3 value, E4 value, and E6 value were obtained accordingly, and the E2 / E3 value and E4 / E6 value were calculated, and the results are shown in Table 2.

[0070]

[0071]

[0072] The results show that the GI of each batch of livestock and poultry manure compost is independently higher than 70%, indicating that the 12 batches of livestock and poultry manure compost prepared in Example 1 have reached complete maturity and meet the implementation standard of organic fertilizer; the humic acid content of each batch of livestock and poultry manure compost is 110-160 g / kg, that is, the humic acid content of the 12 batches of livestock and poultry manure compost is independently greater than 100 g / kg; the relative content of alkyl carbon in each batch of livestock and poultry manure compost is 13%-46%, the relative content of alkoxy carbon is 18%-47%, the relative content of aromatic carbon is 22%-43%, the relative content of carboxyl carbonyl carbon is 3%-20%, the E2 / E3 value is 1.44-2.67, and the E4 / E6 value is 1.17-4.95.

[0073] Example 3: Evaluation of the function of livestock manure compost in promoting crop growth and nutrient absorption

[0074] The poultry and livestock manure compost prepared in Example 1 was added to peat at a ratio of 1%, mixed thoroughly and then transferred to plug trays, and Nanjing dwarf yellow cabbage seeds were sown in each plug tray. Water was irrigated once every 2 days after the seedlings emerged, and the plug tray containing only peat was used as a control. 45 days after the cabbage seeds were sown, the aboveground fresh weight and root fresh weight of the cabbage seedlings were measured; another cabbage seedling was digested with sulfuric acid-hydrogen peroxide using Kjeltec TM The total nitrogen content (TN) of the Chinese cabbage seedlings was determined by an 8400 automatic nitrogen analyzer. The total phosphorus content (TP) and total potassium content (TK) of the Chinese cabbage seedlings were determined by referring to the molybdenum antimony colorimetric method and flame photometer method published by Bao Shidan et al. in "Soil Agrochemical Analysis". The results are shown in Table 3. At the same time, the correlation between the physiological indicators of the Chinese cabbage seedlings and the quality indicators of each batch of poultry and livestock manure compost was analyzed. The results are shown in Table 4.

[0076]

[0077] Table 4 Correlation between physiological parameters of pakchoi seedlings and quality parameters of each batch of livestock manure compost

[0078]

[0079] In the table, * indicates significant correlation at the P < 0.05 level, and ** indicates extremely significant correlation at the P < 0.01 level.

[0080] The results showed that under the treatment of various batches of livestock manure composting, the aboveground fresh weight and root fresh weight of Chinese cabbage seedlings were higher than the control to varying degrees; compared with the control, the aboveground fresh weight increased by 0.6% to 101%, the root fresh weight increased by 25.8% to 100%, and TN, TP and TK increased by an average of 29.7%, 31.0% and 19.2%, respectively; This indicates that the livestock manure composting of the present invention has a more obvious effect on promoting the growth and development of crop roots, and can also promote the accumulation of nitrogen and phosphorus nutrients in the aboveground part of crops.

[0081] The results of correlation analysis showed that the aboveground fresh weight and root fresh weight of pakchoi seedlings were negatively correlated with the E2 / E3 value, E4 / E6 value, relative content of alkoxy carbon, relative content of aromatic carbon, and ARM of each batch of poultry and livestock manure compost, among which they were significantly negatively correlated with the E4 / E6 value; the aboveground fresh weight and root fresh weight of pakchoi seedlings were positively correlated with the relative content of alkyl carbon, relative content of carboxyl carbonyl carbon, HB / HI, and A / OA of each batch of poultry and livestock manure compost, among which they were significantly positively correlated with A / OA. Among them, the E4 / E6 values ​​of livestock manure composts in batches A9, A10 and A12 were independently greater than 1.5 and less than 2.0, and the A / OA were independently greater than 1.4. The aboveground fresh weight and root fresh weight of pakchoi seedlings cultured with livestock manure composts in batches A9, A10 and A12 were both large, indicating that when the humic acid content of livestock manure compost is ≥100 g / kg, 1.5<E4 / E6 value<2.0, and alkylation index>1.4, the livestock manure compost has the function of promoting crop growth and nutrient absorption.

[0082] Example 4: Evaluation of the function of livestock manure composting in reducing soil ammonia volatilization

[0083] 1.0000 g of each batch of livestock manure compost prepared in Example 1 was evenly spread on the micro electronic balance pan, and then 40 mL of 25% NH3·H2O solution was placed in the micro electronic balance and outside the weighing pan, and the micro electronic balance was sealed for 60 min. After the micro electronic balance reading was stable, the mass of each batch of livestock manure compost was recorded, and each batch of livestock manure compost without NH3·H2O solution was used as the corresponding control, and the NH3 adsorption capacity was calculated. The results are shown in Table 5; At the same time, the NH3 adsorption capacity (q e ) and the correlation between them and the quality indexes. The results are shown in Table 6.

[0084] q e The calculation formula is:

[0085] Where: m1 is the initial mass of each batch of livestock manure compost (1.0000 g), and m0 is the mass of each batch of livestock manure compost after sealing for 60 minutes (g).

[0089]

[0090] In the table, * indicates significant correlation at the P < 0.05 level, and ** indicates extremely significant correlation at the P < 0.01 level.

[0091] The results showed that the adsorption capacity of NH3 by different batches of livestock manure compost varied greatly.

[0092] The results of correlation analysis showed that the q of each batch of livestock manure composting e It is extremely significantly positively correlated with the relative content of carboxyl carbonyl carbon and significantly negatively correlated with the relative content of alkoxy carbon. Among them, the relative content of carboxyl carbonyl carbon in the A11 and A12 batches of livestock manure compost is independently greater than 19%, and its NH3 adsorption capacity is independently higher than 60 mg / g, indicating that when the humic acid content of livestock manure compost is ≥100 g / kg and the relative content of carboxyl carbonyl carbon is greater than 19%, the livestock manure compost has the function of reducing soil ammonia volatilization.

[0093] Experimental Example 1: Verification of the function of compost in promoting crop growth and nutrient absorption

[0094] The raw materials were respectively combined into 100 kg chicken manure + 20 kg straw and 100 kg pig manure + 20 kg rice husk and put into a closed reactor, and aerobic fermentation was carried out by the method described in Example 1. After fermentation for 56 days, compost I and compost II were obtained respectively; each compost was air-dried, crushed and passed through a 2 mm sieve, and the humic acid content, relative content of humic acid functional groups, E4 value and E6 value of each compost were determined by referring to the method described in Example 2, and the E4 / E6 value and A / OA value were calculated. The results are shown in Table 7.

[0095] Compost I and compost II were added to peat at a ratio of 2%, and a Qilin variety watermelon seedling test was carried out, and compound fertilizers with equal nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium contents were added as a control; the watermelon seedlings were harvested when they were two-leaf and one-heart stage, and the plant height and stem diameter of the watermelon seedlings were measured, and the aboveground fresh weight, TN, TP and TK of the watermelon seedlings were measured referring to the method described in Example 3, and then the promoting effect of each compost on the growth and nutrient absorption of the watermelon seedlings was evaluated. The results are shown in Table 8.

[0097]

[0098] Table 8 Physiological parameters of watermelon seedlings cultured under different composts

[0099]

[0100] The results showed that the humic acid content of compost I and compost II was independently greater than 100 g / kg, the E4 / E6 values ​​were independently between 1.5 and 2.0, and the A / OA values ​​were independently greater than 1.4, indicating that compost I and compost II in this experimental example both have the function of promoting crop growth and nutrient absorption.

[0101] The watermelon seedling experiment showed that compared with the control, the watermelon seedlings cultivated with compost I and compost II had larger plant height, stem thickness and aboveground fresh weight, and higher TN, TP and TK of the watermelon seedlings, indicating that compost I and compost II in this experimental example do have the function of promoting crop growth and nutrient absorption.

[0102] Experimental Example 2: Verification of the Function of Compost in Reducing Soil Ammonia Volatilization

[0103] Paddy soil was collected near Jiangsu Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and gravel, plant roots, etc. were cleaned. After air-drying and passing through a 2 mm sieve, 100 g of the soil was taken and placed in culture bottles respectively. Each compost prepared in Experimental Example 1 was added to the paddy soil at a ratio of 2% and mixed thoroughly to obtain mixed loam. Urea with the same nitrogen content was added to the paddy soil as a control, and the soil moisture content of the mixed loam was controlled to be 60% of the field water holding capacity. The soil was cultured at 25°C for 14 days, and gas samples were collected on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th, and 7th days of culture. The soil NH3 volatilization rate of each compost was determined by static absorption-boric acid titration. The results are shown in FIG. Figure 3 shown.

[0104] The results showed that the humic acid content of compost Ⅰ and compost Ⅱ was independently greater than 100g / kg, and the relative content of carboxyl carbonyl carbon was independently greater than 19%, indicating that compost Ⅰ and compost Ⅱ in this experimental example both have the function of reducing soil ammonia volatilization;

[0105] Compared with the control, the soil NH3 volatilization rate of the mixed loam obtained by adding compost I and compost II was significantly reduced, and the maximum volatilization rate was only 22.4% and 30.5% of the control, respectively, and the average volatilization rate was only 26.1% and 27.7% of the control, respectively. This shows that compost I and compost II in this experimental example do have the function of reducing soil ammonia volatilization.
