Dataset from "A variable residue: meta-analysis on the nitrogen fertilizer replacement value of anaerobic digestate"

This dataset contains the data used for the manuscript "A variable residue: meta-analysis on the nitrogen fertilizer replacement value of anaerobic digestate", currently (20-03-2025) under revision for publication.

Highlights of the paper:
· Global meta-analysis combined 103 paired treatments from 40 field and pot experiments
· Anaerobic digestate (AD) and mineral fertilizer were compared at equal N application
· N fertilizer replacement value (NFRV) of AD was 0.78 + 0.13 (95% CI)
· Large variation was observed in the NFRV of digestate (range -0.54 to 1.97)
· A combination of soil and AD characteristics best explained observed variation
