The data presented in this article are those from the second year of a two‐year biosolids‐wheat study conducted in the Virginia Coastal Plain. Researchers identified soil types to which biosolids could safely be applied at full agronomic N rates in the fall for wheat without incurring nitrogen leaching problems.
