Most of the useful literature will be in the use of urea.

One of the challenges in applying urine or urea to the paddy is degradation of urea to ammonia and then losses to the atmosphere.

See the article on use of nitrification urease inhibitors from China

Large scale use of urea soil briquettes on paddies in Bangladesh to improve efficiency

Also take a look at the following:

Hi Arno,

Oh yes, I remember his posters during the 2008 WWW. And I think I've seen a few of his videos. Thanks.

It would also be interesting to see and learn about commercial scale urine reuse on rice agriculture, if there are any.

Cheers,

Dan

Hi Elmer and All,

We're going to Zambo Sibugay (Mindanao, Philippines) to lecture on Ecosan. Among their main produce are rubber, citrus and rice.  Does anybody have any experience or knowledge on urine application of these crops? Would appreciate any information. Our lecture is next week Friday.

Thanks.

Dan

Hello Dan, Rob, Robert and all,   Thanks a lot. This is indeed a good idea. Here in my place I will start pilot-testing "eco-lily's" in 2 schools and collecting the urine to fertilize coconuts and fruit trees. I will also pilot 2-3 'bamboo ecosan.' Thanks Rob for sharing the youtube video on this one.  In this way, a menu or range of ecosan possibilities is presented.   Very sincerely,   Elmer     --- On Wed, 7/1/09, Dan Lapid <danlapid@...> wrote: From: Dan Lapid <danlapid@...> Subject: Re: [ecosan-philippines] Ecosan advisors To: ecosan-philippines@yahoogroups.com Date: Wednesday, July 1, 2009, 8:37 AM Dear Elmer, Like Rob, I like your idea of an ecosan advisory team.
