ABSTRACT Widespread use of soluble mineral fertilizers derived from non-renewable sources has raised concerns about environmental impacts, energy expenditures, and sustainability. Combining biosolid and mineral sources of phosphorus and potassium to produce organomineral fertilizers (OMF) can be used as an alternative nutrient source while reducing the environmental impact of sewage residues. As this approach simultaneously provides nutrients and incorporates organic matter, we hypothesized the presence of an organic source (biosolid) granulated with mineral sources of potassium (K) and phosphorus (P) would reduce leaching due to the benefits of the organic source and the slower release caused by granulation. Our goal was to evaluate the effect of different OMFs on the leaching losses of nutrients. Two forms of isolated N, P, and K sources (granulated and non-granulated), five OMFs with different NPK proportions (1-2-0, 1-4-0, 1-0-2, 1-2-2, 1-2-4), and a control (unfertilized) were evaluated over ten weeks in a leaching column experiment. Non-granulated potassium sulfate exhibited the highest K leaching and did not differ from OMFs with K in their formulation (granulated PS, 1-0-2, 1-2-2, and 1-4-2). Planned contrasts showed that granulation was particularly effective at reducing K leaching, resulting in a 70 % reduction compared to non-granulated PS. While formulation and granulation showed a trend of potential benefits in reducing N-(NO3- + NO2-) leaching, the effect was not statistically significant. Interaction between fertilizer treatments and leaching events was marginally significant for NH4+ leaching, indicating temporal variations of OMFs in nutrient dynamics may be influenced by mineralization. As granulation modulated how OMFs affected nutrient leaching dynamics, this highlights the importance of the physical characteristics of fertilizers for effective nutrient management. nonrenewable non renewable impacts expenditures sustainability OMF (OMF residues matter (biosolid (K P (P N nongranulated, nongranulated , non-granulated) 120, 120 1 2 0, 0 (1-2-0 140, 140 4 1-4-0 102, 102 2, 1-0-2 122, 122 1-2-2 124, 124 1-2-4) unfertilized (unfertilized experiment Nongranulated Non PS 142. 142 . 1-4-2) 7 NNO3 NNO NO3 NO N-(NO3 NO2 NO2- NH4 NH mineralization management 12 (1-2- 14 1-4- 10 1-0- 1-2- 1-2-4 1-4-2 N-(NO (1-2 1-4 1-0 1-2 (1- 1- (1 (
