Abstract:
The article presents relevant data from a long-term field experiment in Norway, comparing anaerobically digested and undigested slurry from organically managed dairy cows since 2011. Both the undigested and digested slurry originated from the same herd of cows and heifers. The dataset includes chemical analyses of slurry, soil characteristics at plot level of pH, extractable nutrients, and loss on ignition; crop yields, botanical composition (some years), and plant mineral composition (some years). These data supplement the findings presented and discussed in the research article Anaerobic digestion of dairy cattle slurry - long-term effects on crop yields and chemical soil characteristics[1].
