Effects of Inorganic Fertilizer Inputs on Grain Yields and Soil Properties in a Long‐Term Wheat–Corn Cropping System in South China

Abstract

A long‐term double cropping wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and corn (Zea mays L.) experiment was conducted at Qiyang, Hunan, China, to study the effects of inorganic fertilizers on grain yields and soil properties and to identify the possible causes of yield trends. Six treatments of unfertilized control, N, NP, NK, PK, and NPK were included. The treatments (N, NP, NK, and NPK) where inorganic nitrogen (N) was added showed significant (P<0.05) yield declines of 76 to 114 kg ha^?1 yr^?1 for wheat and 94 to 260 kg ha^?1 yr^?1 for corn, respectively, except for corn yield in the NPK treatment in which the decline was not significant during a 15‐yr (1990–2005) period. Comparatively, the decline amounts in corn were much higher than in wheat. The yields of wheat and corn remained unchanged in the PK treatment. The total organic carbon (C), total N, phosphorus (P), and available P, potassium (K), copper (Cu), and zinc (Zn) contents of soil were either increased or decreased during the study period. Both the decreases of exchangeable calcium (Ca²⁺) and magnesium (Mg²⁺) and increases of exchangeable hydrogen (H⁺) and Al³⁺ contents of soil in the treatments where inorganic N was applied were significant (P<0.05). The same four treatments showed significant pH declines ranging from 0.07 to 0.12 yr^?1. Several lines of evidence point to decline of soil pH due to inorganic N fertilizer added as leading to the overall yield decline of wheat and corn. However, the yields of both crops increased significantly after lime application. In the long term, the farmers should be encouraged to use adequate lime based on a balanced approach to ensure sustainable productivity.     

长期不同施肥下黄壤综合肥力演变及作物产量响应

【目的】 评价长期不同施肥下黄壤综合肥力的演变特征及其与作物产量的响应关系，寻求黄壤综合肥力提升和作物高产、稳产和可持续生产的科学施肥模式，为黄壤耕地保育和地力提升提供依据。 【方法】 依托农业部贵州耕地保育与农业环境科学观测实验站的黄壤肥力与肥料效益长期定位试验，采集10个不同施肥处理2011～2016年的作物产量和耕层土壤样品，包括:不施肥 (CK)、施氮肥 (N)、施氮磷肥 (NP)、施氮钾肥 (NK)、施磷钾肥 (PK)、氮磷钾肥 (NPK)、3/4化肥 + 1/4有机肥 (3/4NP + 1/4M)、1/2化肥 + 1/2有机肥 (1/2NP + 1/2M)、有机肥 (M)、氮磷钾肥 + 有机肥 (NPK + M)，运用改进的内梅罗指数法对土壤综合肥力进行评价。采用相关分析和通径分析评估土壤性质指标与土壤综合肥力的关联性。采用稳定性指数和可持续性指数评估不同施肥管理下土壤综合肥力对作物高产、稳产和可持续生产的影响。 【结果】 通过20年的不同施肥管理，黄壤综合肥力发生了显著 (P < 0.01) 的变化，土壤综合肥力指数以NK处理最低，NPK + M处理最高；长期不施肥 (CK) 或者偏施化肥各处理 (N、NP、NK、PK) 土壤综合肥力指数显著低于施用有机肥的各处理 (3/4NP + 1/4M、1/2NP + 1/2M、M、NPK + M)。相关分析和通径分析表明，土壤综合肥力指数与土壤性质指标均呈显著正相关关系，pH值、碱解氮、全磷和全钾含量极显著地直接影响土壤综合肥力指数的高低。土壤综合肥力指数与作物产量呈极显著的直接正相关，相关系数达0.704 **，通径系数达0.716*。分析不同施肥处理维持作物高产、稳产和可持续性表明，长期施用有机肥各处理具有高综合肥力和作物高产，不施肥或偏施化肥各处理具有低综合肥力和作物低产；NPK和NPK + M处理作物在获得高产的同时，能够维持产量的高稳定性和高可持续性；CK和PK处理作物低产，并且产量稳定性和可持续性低。 【结论】 土壤综合肥力指数能够客观反映黄壤生产力的高低，长期施用有机肥促进了黄壤综合肥力提升并维持作物高产。合理平衡施用化肥或与有机肥配合施用可以维持较高的产量和产量的稳定性和可持续性。      

长期施氮、磷、钾化肥对玉米产量及土壤肥力的影响

以1990年建立的国家褐潮土土壤肥力与肥料效益长期监测基地(北京昌平站)的长期肥料定位试验为研究平台,研究了不同施肥制度对玉米产量和土壤肥力的影响。结果表明,长期均衡地施NPK肥或NPK与有机肥配施,可以显著提高玉米产量和土壤有机质、全氮、全磷、速效氮、速效磷、速效钾等肥力指标,并能提高土壤微量元素的含量;而不均衡施肥(N、NK、NP、PK)导致相应的营养元素的耗竭。相关分析表明,在褐潮土上增施磷肥和有机肥对提高玉米产量具有重要的作用。     

长期不同施肥方式对砷在典型壤质潮土及作物中累积的影响

本文研究了长期(1989—2009年)不同施肥方式对砷在黄淮海地区典型壤质潮土及作物中累积的影响。田间试验设置7个处理:有机肥(OM)、OM+无机化肥氮磷钾(NPK)、NPK、NP、PK、NK和不施肥(CK),OM+NPK处理为有机肥和无机化肥氮磷钾各施一半。结果显示,长期不同施肥方式下砷在表层(0~20 cm)及亚表层(20~40 cm)土壤中的含量均有明显累积,但含量较低(<25 mg.kg 1),对农田生态环境安全的影响较小。土壤中砷的累积主要与灌溉及沉降有关,受施肥方式的影响相对较小。磷肥中砷的含量明显高于氮肥、钾肥及有机肥,磷肥的长期施用促进了砷在PK处理土壤中的累积,但在作物产量较高的情况下,对其在土壤中累积趋势的影响较小,而有机肥的添加则会减缓这种累积趋势。砷在小麦和玉米两种典型作物组织中的含量分布表现为:根系>茎叶>籽粒,其中籽粒中砷的含量显著低于根系及国家食品安全相关标准。经过长期不同方式的施肥处理,砷在小麦组织中的含量表现为:PK>OM>OM+NPK>NPK>NP>NK>CK,与土壤中有效磷含量的变化基本一致,并间接受到土壤有机质的影响。在OM、OM+NPK、NPK和NP施肥处理下,土壤有机质含量及作物产量均较高,土壤有机质含量的提高促进了砷在小麦体内的富集,但对其在玉米根系中含量的影响不明显;玉米生长期较短且产量较高,对砷的需求量较大,土壤中有效态砷含量的不足抑制了其在玉米根系中的分布,但玉米通过加强组织对砷的转移能力提高了其在茎叶中的含量。     

塿土区长期施肥农田土壤的可持续性评价

【目的】施肥是实现作物增产和土壤培肥的主要途径,综合评价长期不同施肥条件下农田土壤的可持续性.可为农田合理施肥和管理提供理论支撑。【方法】依托陕西杨凌"国家黄土肥力与肥料效益监测基地"长期肥料定位试验(23年)采集分析了该试验9个处理[不施肥(CK)、单施氮(N)、氮钾配合(NK)、磷钾配合(PK)、氮磷配合(NP)、氮磷钾配合(NPK)、氮磷钾配合秸秆还田(SNPK)、低量有机肥配合氮磷钾(M_1NPK)和高量有机肥配合氮磷钾(M_2NPK]的土壤养分、微生物特性及作物产量,计算了土壤养分指数、微生物指数、作物指数和可持续性指数.综合评价了长期不同施肥处理对(?)土区农田土壤可持续性的影响。【结果】CK和N处理土壤养分指数分别为0.75和0.87,两者之间差异显著(P0.05)均低于土壤养分指数临界值1.00;其余处理的土壤养分指数在1.12~3.12之间均大于临界值,其中NP和NK差异不显著,SNPK和PK差异不显著,其余各处理间均差异显著(P0.05)。CK、N、NK和PK处理土壤微生物指数在0.74~0.84之间低于土壤微生物指数临界值1.00,其中CK和N差异不显著,NK和PK差异不显著但两组之间差异显著(P0.05);NP、NPK、SNPK、M、NPK和M,NPK处理的在0.98~1.21之间,接近或大于临界值,其中M、NPK和M,NPK差异不显著,NP、NPK和SNPK差异不显著,两组之间差异显著(P0.05)。CK、N、NK和PK的作物指数在0.52~0.60之间均低于作物指数临界值1.00,仅PK和N差异显著(P0.05);氮磷配合的施肥处理(NP、NPK、SNPK、M_1NPK和M_2NPK)在0.98~1.02之间,各处理间差异不显著但均接近或大于临界值1.00。CK、N、NK和PK的可持续性指数分别为0.49、0.54、0.74和0.99均低于可持续性指数临界值1.30,其中CK和N差异不显著;NP和NPK处理的可持续性指数分别为1.18和1.26,两者差异不显著,接近于可持续临界值;有机无机配合的处理(SNPK、M、NPK和M,NPK)的可持续性指数差异显著(P0.05)分别为1.55、2.32和2.94,较临界值高19.5%、78.8%和126.3%。土壤养分指数的变异性(50.2%)大于作物指数(29.1%)和微生物指数(18.4%)的变异性综合计算的可持续性指数的变异最高(62.1%)。【结论】冬小麦一夏玉米轮作条件下,长期不施肥和偏施化肥缕土区农田生产不可持续,化肥平衡施用(NP和NPK)基本可持续,NPK化肥配合秸秆还田(SNPK)和适量有机无机配施(M_1NPK)是实现(?)土可持续利用的施肥模式。     

长期施钾对红壤水稻土水稻产量及土壤钾素状况的影响

研究了长期定位施肥试验中连续27年（1981～2007）施用钾肥对水稻产量和土壤钾素状况的影响。本试验选择了其中5个处理:CK（不施肥）、NP（施氮、磷肥）、NPK（施氮、磷、钾肥）、NP+RS（施氮、磷肥和稻草）和NPK+RS（施氮、磷、钾肥和稻草）。结果表明,施钾能明显提高水稻产量,施钾肥的NPK和NPK+RS处理27年的早稻平均产量分别比NP和NP+RS处理增加15.2%和10.9%;晚稻增产17.2%和9.1%;在27年54季水稻种植期间,不同施肥处理早、晚稻产量的变化趋势不同。CK、NP处理的早、晚稻产量随时间的推移呈负变化趋势,而NPK、NP+RS和NPK+RS处理的早、晚稻产量呈正变化趋势。施钾的NPK和NPK+RS处理不同土层中土壤全钾、缓效钾和速效钾含量均高于NP和NP+RS处理的相同土层;除NPK+RS处理外,其它各处理表观钾平衡均为负值,其中CK和NP处理钾的负平衡值最大。长期施用钾肥能提高水稻产量和维持土壤钾素肥力。     

Effect of calcitic and dolomitic lime on physicochemical properties of a Chilean Andisol

Abstract

Changes in surface reactivity produced by different types of liming in a Chilean Andisol were determined. Barros Aranas soil with 53% aluminum (Al) saturation and 4.8 pH was incubated with different amounts of calcitic and dolomitic lime. Each cmol of calcitic or dolomitic lime applied per kg of soil increased the pH with 0.13 and 0.16 units, respectively. Consequently, the decrease in Al saturation was higher with dolomitic than with calcitic liming material. The zero point of charge (ZPC) increased from 4.2 in unlimed soil to 4.6 and 4.8 in limed soil, while the point of zero salt effect (PZSE) decreased from 4.5 to 4.0 and 3.5 with calcitic and dolomitic lime, indicating an increase in negative charge. But, isoelectric point (IEP) values measured by electrophoretic migration suggested that the external charge only changed by treatment with calcitic liming materials. In both treatments, the acidity constant decreased, and consequently phosphorus (P) adsorption capacity also decreased.     

Pools and fluxes of carbon and nitrogen in 40-year-old forest liming experiments in Southern Sweden

Soil samples were collected from litter, humus and mineral soil layers to a depth of 50 cm in 37–42 year-old limed and unlimed plots in one beech and three spruce stands in S Sweden for determination of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) pools, C and N mineralization rates and nitrification rates. The samples were sifted while still fresh and incubated at a constant temperature (15°C) and soil moisture (50 % WHC) for 110–180 days with periodic subsamplings. The C and N pools in the uppermost soil layers were significantly lower in plots limed with 9–10 t CaCO₃ ha^?1 than in unlimed plots, whereas the pools in the deeper mineral soil did not differ markedly between the treatments. In the whole soil profile, the C and N pools had, on average, decreased by 16% (P<0.05) and 11% (P>0.05), respectively, after 40 yrs. The smaller reduction in N pools resulted in significantly lower C:N ratios and increased N immobilization in the limed spruce plots but not in the limed beech plot. C and net N mineralization rates were increased in some of the limed plots and decreased in others. This indicates that liming can still have a stimulatory effect after 40 yrs in some soils. The nitrification potential was increased in the limed plots. Liming did not increase tree growth in the stands investigated. We conclude that liming with high doses of CaCO₃ is likely to reduce pools of soil C and possibly even soil N in relation to unlimed areas in spruce and beech forests in S Sweden. If trees in limed stands do not respond with better growth, the treatment will thus result in a net ecosystem loss of C and N in relation to unlimed areas. It was not possible to conclude whether the effects of low doses of lime would be similar to those of high doses.     

中国东北黑土上长期施用化肥对土壤微生物生物量和功能多样性的影响

An experiment with seven N, P, K-fertilizer treatments, i.e., control （no fertilizer）, NP, NK, PK, NPK, NP2K, and NPK2 where P2 and K2 indicate double amounts of P and K fertilizers respectively, was conducted to examine the effect of long-term continuous application of chemical fertilizers on microbial biomass and functional diversity of a black soil （Udoll in the USDA Soil Taxonomy） in Northeast China. The soil microbial biomass C ranged between 94 and 145 mg kg^-1, with the NK treatment showing a lower biomass; the functional diversity of soil microbial community ranged from 4.13 to 4.25, with an increasing tendency from control to double-fertilizer treatments, and to triple-fertilizer treatments. The soil microbial biomass, and the microbial functional diversity and evenness did not show any significant differences among the different fertilizer treatments including control, suggesting that the long-term application of chemical fertilization would not result in significant changes in the microbial characteristics of the black soil.     

Factors associated with annual ryegrass yield response to limestone

Abstract

Quantifying the effects of soil acidity on plant growth remains a challenging research topic as numerous soil and plant growth factors are influenced by pH and lime. In the field, annual ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam. ‘Marshall') responded positively to the application of 3.8 Mg lime/ha on a strongly acid (pH 4.7) Lilbert loamy fine sand (loamy, siliceous, thermic, arenic Plinthic Paleudult) over three growing seasons. Dry matter yield in some cuttings, however, was better correlated with soil Al, P, Ca, Mg, and K than with pH. A greenhouse study was undertaken to quantitatively determine the effects of these five minerals plus Mo on ryegrass yield in limed and unlimed Lilbert soil material. Three ryegrass cuttings were obtained from unlimed (pH 4.8) or limed (1000 mg CaCO₃/kg) Lilbert soil which was also amended with five rates of Ca, K, Mg, Al, P, and Mo in combinations stipulated by central composite design methodology. Response surface models that fit yield to the applied treatments and soil test data were complex because all factors and many interactions were significant. Furthermore, the models were transformed as the plants matured and element availability changed due to mineral uptake. Most yield improvement derived from liming occurred as a result of the elimination of exchangeable Al with a concomitant increase in P efficiency. Applied Ca did not alleviate Al toxicity in unlimed soil. Chlorotic plants developed in all pots where Mg was excluded. Yield was increased by applied Mg and Mo in unlimed soil, but not in limed soil. Applied K improved yield only in limed soil. Although regression accounted for a large portion of the yield variability (R² values ranged from 0.75 to 0.95), these models were unable to accurately predict yield in control treatments.     

Growth and nutrient interrelationships of three vegetable crops with different sensitivities to soil pH as affected by lime and fertilizer treatments

Abstract

In seeking reasons for differences in sensitivity among vegetables to low soil pH and the roles of lime and fertilizers, an experiment was conducted in 1984 with 3 crops: snapbeans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum L.), and red beets (Beta vulgaris L.). The lime treatments, check, calcitic lime, and dolomitic lime, were applied in 1979 and resulted in soil pH levels of 5.5, 6.9 and 6.7, respectively, at the time of planting. Banded fertilizer treatments were randomized in each lime plot. These were: check, NP, N, NPK, NPCa, and NPMg for snapbeans while with tomatoes and beets, K was added to the N, NPCa and NPMg treatments. Leaf samples from each plot were analyzed for 11 elements.

Growth responses of the 3 crops were related to the plant sensitivity to acid soils. When grown on soil with pH 5.5, snapbean vine weights and pod yields were not affected, tomato yields tended to be lower, and red beet yields were substantially reduced. Leaf Mn levels increased with the greater sensitivity to acid soils. Both calcitic and dolomitic limes had little effect on snapbean yields, moderate effects on tomato yields, and more than doubled yields of red beets. Lime types affected primarily leaf Ca and Mg. The NPK fertilizer treatment increased yields of tomatoes and red beets but increased only vine weights of snapbeans. Leaf Mn was increased substantially in the NPK treatment. When gypsum or Epsom salts was added, yields were not affected.

The sensitivity of red beets and to a lesser extent tomatoes could not be explained on the basis of manganese toxicity or poor uptake of calcium or magnesium. The results did suggest that poor phosphorus uptake could be a primary cause.     

长期施肥对汞在典型壤质潮土及作物中累积影响的研究

研究了长期(1989~2009年)不同施肥条件下,汞在典型壤质潮土中的累积趋势、形态变化,及其在冬小麦/夏玉米体系作物体内的富集与转移。田间试验设置7个不同施肥处理,有机肥(OM)、OM+化肥氮磷钾(NPK)、NPK、NP、PK、NK、和不施肥(CK),其中OM+NPK处理有机肥和化肥氮磷钾各占50%。每个处理4个重复。结果显示,经过20年的不同施肥处理,汞在表层土壤(0～20 cm)中的含量呈现先增加后减少的趋势。磷肥的长期施用是土壤中汞的重要来源,但对其在土壤中的累积趋势影响较小。弱酸溶解态和有机结合态汞的生物毒性较强,但在供试土壤中的含量较低,均约占其全量的6%;而铁锰结合态(18%)和残渣态(70%)是该土壤中汞的主要形态。汞在小麦茎叶和籽粒中的含量差异较小,显著的低于其在根系中的含量;汞在玉米根系和茎叶中的含量相似,明显高于其在籽粒中的含量。经过长期不同的施肥处理,汞在土壤中的含量表现为NPK≈OM+NPK≈NP≈PK>OM>NK≈CK,与其在作物根系及茎叶中含量的趋势总体一致;汞在两种作物籽粒中的含量表现为NPK≈CK>OM≈OM+NPK>NK>PK>NP,在作物产量较高及较低的情况下均容易导致汞在籽粒中的富集。在OM、OM+NPK、NK和CK几种施肥处理下,汞在土壤及作物根系中的含量与其余处理相比均较低,但作物通过加强对汞的转移能力,提高了其在作物茎叶及籽粒中的含量,尤其CK处理汞在两种作物籽粒中的含量。     

有机无机肥长期定位试验土壤小麦季氨挥发损失及其影响因素研究

氨挥发是肥料氮素损失的重要途径之一,损失率因土壤类型、气候条件、肥料用量、施肥时间和方式等不同而存在很大差异。为了筛选提高氮肥利用率的肥料运筹方式,本文利用长期定位试验平台,采用间歇密闭通气法,研究了有机无机肥长期施用条件下小麦季土壤氨挥发损失及其影响因素。结果表明,不同肥料种类和配施强烈地影响着土壤氨挥发,在150kgN·hm^-2用量下小麦季氨挥发损失量以NK和有机肥处理为最高,分别达到17．89和15．70kgN·hm^-2,占氮肥用量的10．47％-11．93％,显著高于NPK、NP和有机无机肥配施（1／20M）处理。土壤氨挥发速率与气温呈显著正相关,基肥施用后灌水可以有效地降低氨挥发损失。NPK肥料平衡施用或者有机无机肥配施可以减少氨挥发损失。     

浙江中部红壤施用石灰对土壤交换性钙、镁及土壤酸度的影响

为了确定红壤施用石灰后钙、镁移动和土壤酸化速率,监测了耕层（10～20ｃｍ）和底土（20～60ｃｍ）的ｐＨ和交换性Ca2+、Mg2+、Al2+的长期变化。结果表明,耕层交换性Ca2+在施用石灰后的一年半时间达到最高值,此后随着时间的推移而急剧减少;而底土的交换性Ca2+随石灰用量的增加和施用石灰后时间的推移而增加。镁在土壤剖面中的移动比钙快;施用石灰后耕层和底土酸度的降低与交换性Ca2+的增加基本同步。在本试验条件下,不论施用石灰与否都存在着复酸化过程,但施用石灰后复酸化作用更强。     

长期施肥对小麦-玉米作物系统土壤腐殖质组分碳和氮的影响

通过对华北平原小麦–玉米轮作农田生态系统18年田间施肥试验,研究了长期不同施肥处理对耕层（0—20 cm）土壤腐殖质及活性腐殖质组分碳和氮的影响。试验设化肥NPK不同组合（NPK、NP、NK、PK）,全部施用有机肥（OM）,一半有机肥+化肥NPK（1/2OMN）及不施肥（CK）共7个处理。结果表明,各施肥处理均能在不同程度上增加土壤腐殖质（胡敏酸、富里酸和胡敏素）及活性腐殖质（活性胡敏酸和活性富里酸）组分碳和氮含量,提高可浸提腐殖质（胡敏酸和富里酸）及活性腐殖质组分碳和氮分配比例;但施肥对土壤活性腐殖质组分碳和氮含量的增加率均分别高于腐殖质组分碳和氮。各处理土壤腐殖质及活性腐殖质组分碳和氮含量均为OM处理最高,且有机肥与化肥NPK配施高于单施化肥各处理;而化肥处理中NPK均衡施用效果最好。说明施用有机肥、有机肥与化肥NPK配施及化肥NPK均衡施用是增加土壤腐殖质及活性腐殖质组分碳和氮的关键;活性腐殖质组分碳和氮较腐殖质组分碳和氮对施肥措施的响应更灵敏。     

长期施用化肥对塿土微生物多样性的影响

【目的】土壤微生物在土壤有机质分解、营养循环、植物生长等方面都发挥着重要作用,研究长期施用化肥对其产生的影响可为农田合理施用化肥、培肥土壤和高产高效可持续性农业生产提供理论依据。【方法】以陕西杨凌"国家黄土肥力与肥料效益监测基地"的长期定位试验为基础,利用BIOLOG分析并结合常规分析研究了6种长期不同化肥施用方式不施肥(CK)、单施氮肥(N)、氮钾配施(NK)、磷钾配施(PK)、氮磷配施(NP)和氮磷钾配施(NPK)对土土壤微生物量和微生物功能多样性的影响。【结果】与不施肥CK相比,长期单施氮肥(N)的SMBC、SMBN没有显著变化,但明显降低了土壤微生物商和土壤微生物对氮素的利用;NP和NPK配施能够显著增加土SMBC和SMBN含量,明显提高了土壤微生物商,使土壤微生物种群结构发生了明显变化但土壤微生物对氮素的利用没有显著提高;长期偏施肥处理(NK、PK)的SMBC、SMBN和微生物商虽轻微增加,但土壤微生物种群结构没有显著改变。BIOLOG分析结果显示施磷处理(PK、NP和NPK)对微生物代谢活性的促进作用较大且在培养初期代谢活性较不施磷处理(CK、N和NK)增加显著。长期单施氮肥(N)对于提高土壤微生物多样性没有显著作用而其他化肥施用处理可以提高土土壤微生物群落的碳源利用能力、物种的丰富度和优势度,其中NP和NPK处理配施效果最好。化肥施用对土土壤微生物群落的均匀度没有显著影响。主成分分析的结果表明不同处理的土壤微生物对碳源利用表现出显著差异,氮磷养分的差异是产生分异的主要原因。【结论】土区小麦玉米轮作下,平衡施肥(NP或NPK配施)对于改善农田土壤微生物特性具有良好作用。     

How different long‐term fertilization strategies influence crop yield and soil properties in a maize field in the North China Plain

The impact of fertilization on maize (Zea mays L.) yield and soil properties was investigated in a long‐term (> 18 y) experimental field in N China. A completely randomized block design with seven fertilizer treatments and four replications was used. The seven fertilizer treatments were (1) compost (COMP), (2) half compost plus half chemical fertilizer (COMP1/2), (3) balanced NPK fertilizer (NPK), (4–6) unbalanced chemical fertilizers without one of the major elements (NP, PK, and NK), and (7) an unamended control (CK). In addition to maize yield, soil chemical and biological properties were investigated. Compared to the balanced NPK treatment, maize yield from the COMP treatment was 7.9% higher, from the COMP1/2 was similar, but from the NP, PK, NK, and CK treatment were 12.4%, 59.9%, 78.6%, and 75.7% lower. Across the growing season, microbial biomass C and N contents, basal soil respiration, and fluorescein diacetate hydrolysis, dehydrogenase, urease, and invertase activities in the COMP and COMP1/2 treatments were 7%–203% higher than the NPK treatment. Values from all other treatments were up to 60% lower than the NPK treatment. Maize yield is closely related to the soil organic C (OC) and biological properties, and the OC is closely related to various biological properties, indicating that OC is a suitable indicator for soil quality. Our results suggest the most limiting nutrient for improving the yield or soil quality was P, followed by N and K, and balanced fertilization is important in maintaining high crop yield and soil quality. Additionally, increases in OC, N, and biological activities in COMP and COMP1/2 treatments imply that organic compost is superior to the chemical fertilizers tested.     

低土壤肥力下秸秆还田和施钾对作物产量及土壤钾素平衡的影响

为了研究我国华北平原低肥力土壤条件下秸秆还田和施钾肥对作物产量和钾素平衡的影响,于2008年10月～2011年10月在中国农业科学院高新技术园区国家测土施肥中心实验室试验基地（河北省廊坊市）,通过3年6季的定位试验,比较了施钾与秸秆还田的增产效应、钾素吸收利用和作物土壤系统的钾素平衡状况。结果表明:在氮、磷肥充足的情况下,施用钾肥（NPK）、秸秆还田（NP+St）和秸秆还田配施钾肥（NPK+St）,均有明显的增产效应,表现为NPK+StNPKNP+StNP;不同施钾措施在夏玉米上的增产效果优于冬小麦;同一作物秸秆还田结合施钾肥的增产效果最好,降低了年度间的产量变异系数,在获得高产的同时,年际间产量稳定,有利于稳产;施钾肥和秸秆还田可显著提高小麦和玉米的钾素吸收总量; NPK+St、NPK、NP+St处理的钾素表观平衡系数分别为1.26,0.42,0.92。秸秆还田和施钾肥有利于钾素的收支平衡,减轻作物对土壤钾素的消耗,缓解土壤钾素肥力下降的程度,可维持土壤钾素肥力的稳定。     

长期定位施肥对农田土壤温室气体排放的影响

采用静态箱/气象色谱法,研究长期不同养分配施(CK,NK,NP,PK和NPK)后的农田土壤温室气体排放差异。结果表明,不同处理条件下,土壤CO2排放呈相似的变化趋势,受土壤温度和水分的共同影响,土壤CH4和N2O的时间变化在不同处理间存在差异,和温度水分的关系不明显。平均排放通量的分析表明,长期不同肥料配合施用后形成的不同肥力的土壤以及作物生长的差异是影响土壤温室气体排放的一个重要因素,土壤CO2平均排放通量顺序依次为CK相似文献   

长期施用氮磷钾肥和石灰对红壤性水稻土酸性特征的影响

利用34年的长期定位施肥试验,研究不施肥(CK)、施氮磷钾肥(NPK)和氮磷钾化肥配施石灰(NPK+Ca O)对红壤性水稻土不同形态酸、土壤盐基离子及水稻植株阳离子吸收量的影响,探讨土壤交换性H+和Al3+占交换性酸的比例、土壤盐基离子、植株带出阳离子数量与土壤酸度的关系。结果表明,长期NPK处理早、晚稻土壤p H较CK处理分别降低0.2和0.3个单位,交换性酸提高2.3倍和4.2倍,水解性酸提高35.4%和40.0%;NPK+Ca O处理早、晚稻土壤p H较NPK处理分别提高0.5和0.7个单位,较CK处理分别提高0.3和0.4个单位,交换性酸、水解性酸均显著低于NPK和CK处理(p0.05)。土壤交换性H+、Al3+含量高低顺序均为NPK+Ca OCKNPK。土壤交换性盐基离子以交换性Ca2+所占比例最大(81.8%~89.3%),NPK+Ca O处理交换性Ca2+较CK和NPK处理分别提高40.1%和62.9%。交换性Ca2+、交换性盐基离子、盐基饱和度与土壤p H正相关,与交换性酸、水解性酸负相关,交换性Mg2+与交换性酸、水解性酸负相关,交换性Na+与水解性酸负相关。植株移出带走的钙、镁、钾、钠离子量及其总量对土壤p H、交换性酸和水解性酸有一定影响,但其相关性均不显著。研究表明长期施用化肥条件下通过配施石灰可有效缓解稻田土壤的酸化,促进酸性稻田土壤的生态修复与改良。
