Nitrate and ammonium analyses were carried out on periodically collected soil samples. In-situ denitrification loss was determined using the acetylene inhibition technique (AIT). The results revealed that OR application increased N mineralization significantly. In the favorable conditions for nitrification and intensive mineralization period, NO3 -N accumulation at 0-60 cm depth -1 peaked at , and kg N ha in plots with wheat straw, corn straw and tobacco waste, respectively. In-situ denitrification measurements showed that intensive mineralization, depending on temperature and humidity conditions, significantly increased denitrification losses. The denitrification values measured showed a variation between and kg N2O-N ha-1. The results also showed that the effect of organic substrates on N loss via denitrification was highly dependent on the type of organic substrate used, and the C/N ratio of the organic substrate played an important role in N loss by denitrification.
