Abstract

The leaching losses as a result of application of nutrient rich raw and anaerobically digested palm oil mill effluent (POME) on Segamat Soil Series were studied using lysimeters of 75 cm soil depth. Raw POME was applied at a rate of 1.78mm rain equivalent per year (rey)/application over 1175 days while anaerobically digested POME was applied at a rate of 3.54 rey/application over 475 days. The average yearly application amounted to 463mm and 936mm rain equivalent for raw and digested POME respectively. The percentage of nutrients leached as a result of applying raw POME was 49.8 for Ca 37.7 for K and 7.7 for Mg while for anaerobically digested POME it was 30.7 for Ca 16.3 for K and 11 5 for Mg. For both effluent types there was very little leaching of total N and P
