The losses of P and faecal microbes from outdoor paddocks are possible to decrease by removing dung, choosing the right floor materials and adding of the P-binding material into the surface layer of the floor. In the present study, sand retained more P and faecal coliforms than woodchips. The concentrations were lower in percolation water compared to surface runoff water, since the floor materials retained P and sieved coliforms. Addition of Fe-containing amendment into the sand floor decreased P concentrations and possibly also numbers of faecal coliforms in percolation water. More research is, however, needed to obtain the right amendments and suitable amounts. |

The increasing number of horses, especially in urban areas has made the phosphorus (P) load of exercise areas (paddocks) more and more obvious but there has been a lack of information regarding how to assess this load and what can be done to lower it. In the surface soil (1-2 cm) of areas that are affected by horse manure, like paddocks, we measured very high extractable P contents. When testing soils from these areas using a rainfall simulator we found a close correlation between the extractable soil P in the surface soil and the dissolved reactive P in runoff water. In a runoff treatment test trial we used ferric sulphate to treat paddock runoff water. The chemical dosage was carried out using a tube doser placed in a well. After ferric sulphate... |
