Nitrification inhibitors can reduce the potential for environmental contamination of animal wastes, relatively to nitrate (NO3 -) leaching and nitrous oxide (N2O) emission. However, this strategy has not yet been sufficiently evaluated by research, especially with poultry litter (PL). Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of the product "Agrotain Plus" (AP), containing 81% of dicyandiamide (DCD), on the nitrification inhibition, ammonia (NH3) volatilization and carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) PL mineralization. Two laboratory experiments were conducted, using a Hapludalf soil collected in the 0-10 cm layer. In one experiment, conducted for 54 days, the treatments consisted of PL (4.7 Mg ha-1, dry basis) incorporated in the soil, without and with AP doses (3.5, 7.0 and 14 kg ha-1), and without PL or AP (control). In the other experiment, conducted for 69 days had all these treatments plus two additional treatments of CA on the soil surface, without and with AP (7 kg ha-1). The AP delayed NO3 - production in soil, and this inhibitory effect was more intense at the highest dose of AP (14 kg ha-1). NH3 volatilization occurred only when PL remained on the soil surface and was favored by the addition of AP. The AP addition increased PL C- and Nmineralization by 4 and 28%, respectively. The results of this study indicated that dicyandiamide (DCD), contained in the product Agrotain Plus, reduces the nitrification rate of PL ammonia in soil and could be a strategy to preserve the N of this organic material and reduce potential pollution of the environment.
