This work aims to compare the effects of slurry, digestate and a mineral fertiliser on the yield of Lolium sp. A pot trial was conducted in a Dystric Regosol with ryegrass sown in December 2018. Treatments were: Control (without fertilisation), mineral fertiliser (MF), digestate (DG) and cattle slurry (CS). MF was applied at an Ni rate of 85 kg ha-1 at sowing and 42.5 kg ha-1 at the first cut and the remaining 42.5 kg ha-1 at the second cut. DG and CS were applied at a rate corresponding to the application of 170 N kg ha-1 only at sowing (170No) or with 85 kg No ha-1 at sowing and 42.5 kg Ni ha-1 at the first cut and the same amount at the second cut. MF, DG and CS treatments were also done with and without the application of 35 kg P ha-1 at sowing as single superphosphate. Irrespective to the fertilisers used the fertilisation increased significantly (p < 0.001) the crop yield. DG and CS showed similar yields between the same treatments. MF showed the highest yield that was similar to DG with No+Ni application and to CS with only No or No+Ni but always with P fertilisation.
