Application of Landfill Leachate Improves Wheat Nutrition and Yield but Has Minor Effects on Soil Properties.

Landfill leachates, which are potential pollutants, may also carry significant amounts of nutrients that can be recycled by plants. We assessed the nutritional status and yield of wheat ( L.) and properties of a Rhodic Kandiudult soil (depths of 0-10, 10-20, 20-40, and 40-60 cm) after 11 applications of landfill leachate over 4 yr.

Effect of Landfill Leachate on Cereal Nutrition and Productivity and on Soil Properties.

Landfill leachates carry nutrients, especially N and K, which can be recycled in cropping systems. We applied doses of landfill leachate (0 [Control], 32.7, 65.
