  • All

The principal aim of this study was to improve Natural Resources Wales’ understanding of how organic manures, particularly from the poultry sector, can impact the nutrient status of rivers, with a focus on phosphorus (P). The methodology used to produce this Rapid Evidence Assessment (REA) included a systematic review of relevant literature to establish an evidence base, which was used to address primary and secondary Research Questions (RQs). The scope of the study was restricted to answering the RQs only, and, as a REA, the literature searches and critical appraisal of the literature were not as comprehensive as a full systemic review.

Lineage

An REA was undertaken following the methods described by Collins et al. (2015). Structured searches of the academic literature were conducted using the search engine Scopus. Search strings were designed based on the adapted PICO framework. Searches were limited to the article title, abstract and keywords and restricted to the last 25 years (1999 – 2023) to ensure the most relevant information was captured. The geographic scope was defined as countries with the same bioclimatic classification as the UK. The top 80 most relevant studies were downloaded per search term. The top 25 most relevant articles (not limited by publication date) were downloaded for each manure type and search term, and duplicates removed with the original list. A final search was conducted that focused on UK-specific literature, as this is the primary focus of the review, following which the top 20 articles (ordered by relevance) were selected. Additional unstructured searches were conducted using Google Scholar. The relevance of each article was initially reviewed based on the title, and designated a category of ‘relevant’, ‘somewhat relevant’, or ‘not relevant’. Following this, the second stage of the filtering process reviewed the abstracts of those articles deemed ‘relevant’ or ‘somewhat relevant’ at the title filtering stage into ‘relevant’ or ‘not relevant’.
