Comparison of Foliar and Soil Fe Fertilization on Medicago scutellata Physiological-Biochemical Characteristics and Active Iron in Soils Containing Different Amounts of Lime

Reducing iron solubility in calcareous soils causes iron chlorosis symptoms in the plant. In order to investigate the response of M. scutellata to direct and indirect iron deficiency, a factorial experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design with three replications. The experimental factors included three levels of lime (0, 4 and 8%) and five levels of Fe (0, 5 and 10 mg Fe Kg soil...

IMPROVING HYDRATION RESISTANCE OF MAGNESIA-DOLOMA REFRACTORIES BYIRON OXIDE ADDITION

Abstract: There have been lots of studies to control the poor hydration resistance of dolomite refractories one of themost effective solutions has been the addition of magnesia to doloma. Using a co-clinker of magnesia-doloma as astarting material would provide more homogeneity in the properties of the product and has been published recently.On the other hand, addition of iron oxide to doloma h...
