Abstract
► This study assesses soil properties after application of cranberry waste alone or with leaves and heat-dried biosolids. ► Each treatment was represented by a single field on a commercial farm in central New Jersey on predominantly sandy soil. ► Cranberry waste reduced pH and biological activity. ► The mix of dissimilar wastes created a more hospitable environment for microorganisms. ► Sampling of amended fields should take into account the potential variability introduced by uneven application of the amendment.
