The paper presents the direct and residual action of different types of manure: cattle, mixed, poultry and pigs on the agrochemical indices of the soil and the productivity of field crops. Three doses were applied, calculated on the basis of total nitrogen content, equivalent to N170, N340 and N425 kg/ha. The results showed that cattle manure in the applied doses increased the average organic matter content by 0.18-0.27%. Mixed manure had a lower action compared to cattle manure at a dose of N170 kg/ha. A residual action was demonstrated at the pig manure applied, that consists on average 0.18% during nine years of study. A significant increase in the mobile phosphorus content in the soil was observed when applying all types of investigated waste. The specific increase in yields, in cereal units, kg/ton, on average was: 54.8 for cattle manure; 77.5 for mixed waste; 78.2 for pig manure; 134.9 in poultry manure.
