Synopsis Leachable nitrogen was greatest in the first 3‐week period and varied as follows: (NH 4 ) 2 S0 4 = Urea > castor pomace > Milorganite > Uramite = Nitroform. In the 3‐ to 12‐week period leachable nitrogen varied as: Uramite = Nitroform > castor pomace = Milorganite. Decreased soil acidity increased the leachable nitrogen from all materials in the first 3 weeks.
