Straw samples of different particle size and N content were selected from three spring wheat (Triticum aestivum) varieties; added to Walla Walla, Palouse, and Portneuf silt loam soils at 0.5 and 2.0% rates; and incubated. At the 0.5% addition rate, straw samples containing 0.2 to 0.7% N decomposed at the same rate. When 2.0% straw was added to soil, the decomposition rates increased with increasing N percentage. The N- supplying capacity of the soil apparently influenced decomposition at the higher straw rates. After incubation, considerable nitrate was found in the soil with 0.5% straw but little was found in the soil with 2.0% straw. Different particle sizes of straw with the same N contents decomposed at approximately the same rate. Soil...
