Determine the first-year dry sludge application rate for camelina crop on the basis of satisfying crop nitrogen update. Assume that (1) the nitrogen uptake for camelina is about 120 kg/ha.y; (2) biosolids contain 2% of organic nitrogen and 0.2% ammonia nitrogen (N in NH4); (3) the mineralization rate of organic nitrogen in the first year is 0.3; (4) the soil has an initial nitrogen content of zero; and (5) the biosolids application is surface-applied dewatered sludge
