Zinc Fertilization of Rice Grown on Clay Soils in Arkansas

Zinc (Zn) fertilizer is not currently recommended for rice grown on clay or clay loam soils in Arkansas. In 2003, eight field sites were established to evaluate the response of rice grown on clay soils to Zn fertilization. Shortly before or after seeding, granular Zn fertilizer was applied to the soil surface at rates of 0, 5, 10, and 20 lb Zn/acre. Tissue Zn concentration 10 to 14 days after f...

zinc sorption characteristics of some selected calcareous soils of iran

this study was carried out to obtain quantitative relationships between zn in equilibrium solution and that retained by 20 calcareous soils. soils were brought into equilibrium with varying solution concentrations of zn, and the amounts removed from solution were used to check the fit to six adsorption isotherms, namely, freundlich, langmuir, temkin, gunary, two surface langmuir and adjusted fr...

kinetics of zinc sorption by some calcareous soils of iran

the kinetics of zn sorption by ten calcareous soils of iran were measured and fitted to several equations (zero-, first-, second-, third-order, parabolic diffusion, simple elovich, and exponential equations). two initial concentrations of zinc i.e. 20 and 80 mg zn l-1 were used and observations were carried out for 100 hours. the time required to reach the near equilibrium state was about 24 ho...
