Results showedthat leached N consisted mainly of nitrate N, which accounted for up to more than 90% of the total N loss and couldcontribute to groundwater pollution. Data also showed that by partly substituting chemical N (30%) in a basal dressingwith equivalent N of refined organic fertilizer in the Chinese flat cabbage field, 64.5% of the leached nitrate N was reduced,while in the lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) field, substituting 1/2 of the chemical N in a basal dressing and 1/3 of the chemicalN in a top dressing with equivalent N of refined organic fertilizers reduced 46.6% of the leached nitrate N. In the two-year sequential rotation system of Chinese flat cabbage and lettuce, nitrate-N leaching in the treatment with the highestamount of chemical fertilizer was up to 46.55 kg ha-1, while treatment plots with the highest amount of organic fertilizerhad only 17.58 kg ha-1. Thus, partly substituting refined organic fertilizer for chemical nitrogen in the first two seasonshas a great advantage of reducing nitrate-N leaching.展开更多
