Potassium supplying capacity of northeastern Portuguese soils

Potassium Supplying Capacity and High Efficiency Use of Potassium Fertilizer in Upland Soils of Hunan Province (China)

potassium supplying power of selected alkaline-calcareous soils in the north-west of iran

solution potassium (so-k) and exchangeable k (ex-k) extracted by nh4oac are the major sources of potassium used by plants, but initially non-exchangeable k (nex-k) can also contribute significantly to plant uptake. perennial ryegrass (lolium perenne, cv. roper) was successively planted in ten surface soil samples with different clay mineralogical composition belonging to five soil types to dete...

Fixation of Potassium in Soils.

That some of the potassium added in the form of fertilizers or otherwise becomes fixed in the soil had been known for a long time. With the clarification of the phenomena of base exchange in soils by Gedroiz it was revealed that the K-ion is fixed in the exchange complex not only in replaceable but also in non-replaceable form. A review of the work in this connection may be found in the paper b...

study of potassium fixation capacity in some under-cultivation sugarcane soils in khuzestan

abstract this study was conducted to investigate, under incubation conditions (fc moisture and temperature of 30o c), the effect of the potassium concentration and the cultivation background on the k- fixation in khuzestan’s sugarcane under-cultivation soils. for this reason, 70 complex soil samples in 35 pairs each coupled out of two different depths (0-30 and 30-60 cm), chosen from the under-...

Potassium Relationships of Three Ohio Soils

Three Ohio soils, Hoytville clay, Brookston silty clay loam, and Wooster silt loam located at various branches of the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center, were studied. Bulk samples from each horizon were tested for exchangeable basic cations, pH, sulfuric acid extractable potassium (K+), and particle-size distribution. The surface horizons of each soil were characterized by measu...
