Agriculture is mainly responsible for ammonia (NH3) volatilization. Among all agricultural activities, livestock and especially animal manures are the most important sources of NH3 emissions. Manure application which not only exacerbate greenhouse gas emissions, but also leads to eutrophication of water bodies. Many studies have shown that surface application of manure can lead to large ammonia losses and run off, on the other hand that tillage can substantially reduce these losses. It is necessary to determine ammonia flux from manure-amended soils to improve management manure handling practices for minimizing agriculture’s impact on the environment. From this point of view, one of the direct measured method was used to determine this volatilization. The objections of this work were: i) The design, construction, physical calibration, and operation of the little wind tunnels. ii) Recover ammonia loss from bovine slurry by little wind tunnel method. iii) Determine the effect of slurry application depth on ammonia emission. The little wind tunnel system consisted of plastic canopy covering the treatment area (2 m long by 0.5 m wide). By was using a fan, it was imitated the natural wind speed in the test area (1-1.5 m/s). Nitrogen losses were measured with this method in surface application, 50 mm and 100 mm subsurface. In the surface application, the highest ammonia emission was observed. It was approximately 68% higher in compared to another methods. There is significantly (P=0.05) different in the ammonia emission, between the surface apply method and injection manure in soil methods. But There isn’t any significantly different between ammonia emission amount in injection subsurface methods (100 mm and 50 mm deep).
