| Three different perennial legume species (Lotus corniculatus, Medicago sativa, Trifolium pratense) were cultivated in alternate drills with one of three different grasses each. L. corniculatus is known to be rich in tannins, which are supposed to have positive effects on protein digestion of ruminants and methane emissions. One of the grass components was a Lolium perenne cultivar (cv. Aberavon) with increased concentrations of water-soluble carbohydrates (wsc). The influence of this grass variety on forage characteristics in mixtures was tested compared to other grasses (Lolium perenne cv. Gladio and Lolium multiflorum cv. Ligrande). Dry matter yield of different mixtures was determined and concentration of wsc in herbage before ensiling was... |

| The impact of management and environmental site factors on quantitative and qualitative indicators of humus dynamics was investigated in eight long-term field experiments in Germany and neighbouring countries. Humus dynamics were basically influenced by environmental site conditions, but at a given site differences between farming systems could be ascerted. Mixed farming systems with farmyard manure application as a rule had a more favourable impact on humus dynamics than stockless systems. Whether an advantageous performance of humus dynamics in organic farming as compared to conventional farming will occur or not, is dependent on the respective farm types of both systems that are related to each other. |

| In two agricultural systems with and without animal husbandry the potential to produce renewable energy by digesting slurry and organic residues to biogas were assessed. In comparison to some other methods of energy production by biomass biogas production has the advantage of keeping the nutrients of the substrates within the agricultural system. They can be used as fertilisers. In the investigated system with milk production (0,8 cows ha-1, 8 crops, among them 4 cereals, peas, potatoes and 2 clover grasses with catch crops after winter cereals and peas (see DEUKER et al. 2005), it is possible not only to ferment slurry, but also catch crops and straw of peas and cereals. The methan production potential by digesting only slurry is the equivalent of around... |

| In organic farming systems without livestock some problems arise concerning the nitrogen management: On the one hand, there is a lack of transportable nitrogen fertilisers, on the other hand there is a potential for high losses with the usual management. The biological N2 fixation is decreased, when clover grass is mulched. If the biomass of intercrops and clover grass gets mineralised in autumn, it can be leached in winter. In the trial referred to here, the impact of fermentation of biomass on some agricultural parameters like yield etc. are investigated within a crop-rotation of clover grass, potatoes, winter wheat, peas, winter wheat and summer wheat with undersown clover grass. Intercrops are sown after winter wheat and peas. In the control... |

| Under ecological crop growing conditions, considerable problems consistently arise in fulfilling the baking quality of winter wheat demanded by consumers. The “wide row” procedure shows promising potential for effectively using the nutrient supply in ecological cultivation for the production of winter wheat with high baking performance. Increasing the distance between rows of winter wheat from 12.5 cm to 50 cm proved advantageous for the indirect quality parameters sedimentation value and gluten and crude protein concentration. Either no yield decreases or low decreases only up to 10% were noted. Because of an increased tendency to erode and in order to improve of the preceding crop’s value, creation of a green zone with legumes between the rows is... |

| A common practice in stockless organic farming systems is to leave the biomass from clover/grass-ley and crop residues in the field for their residual fertility effect. No farmyard manures for transfer of nutrients within the system are available. Clover/grass-ley biomass and crop residues represents an unexploited energy potential that could be harnessed by the digestion in biogas plants for production of methane, thus replacing ruminants by the biogas digester. In field trials by implementing a whole crop rotation comprehending six crops were carried out in 2002-2005 to evaluate whether the use of N could be improved by processing biomass described above in a biogas digester and using the effluents as a fertilizer, compared to general practice. Results... |

| Manures and crop residues can be utilised for digestion, without any significant losses of nutrients. This paper presents the results of field trials about the effects of biogas digestion in a mixed organic cropping systems on nutrient cycling and yield of a whole crop rotation. Digestion of slurry affected yields and N uptake only after soil incorporation. The inclusion of crop residues for digestion increased the amounts of “mobile” manure. N uptake and yield of non-leguminous main crops increased about 10%, due to a more adapted allocation of nutrients within the whole cropping system by reallocation of N towards the crops with higher N needs. Additionally, removing the cover crops in autumn and their digestion increased the fertilizing efficiency of N,... |
