The Effect of Chloride on Yield and Nutrient Interaction in Greenhouse Tomato (Lycopersicon Esculentum Mill.) Grown in Rockwool

The effect of increasing chloride content in nutrient solution on nutrient composition in root environment, interaction of nutrients in leaves and yield of greenhouse tomato cv. ‘Grace F₁’ grown in rockwool were searched. In Experiment I (2004–2005) the levels of 15, 30, 60, and 90 mg Cl·L^?1 but in Experiment II (2006) 30, 60, 90 and 120 mg Cl·L^?1 of nutrient solution were tested. The sources of chloride were water (9.6–10.7 mg Cl·L^?1) and calcium chloride (CaCl₂·2H₂O) but the rest of nutrients and sodium in all treatments were on the same levels. It was found that increasing content of chloride from 15 to 60 mg Cl·L^?1 enhanced the total and marketable fruit yield. Within the range of 60 to 90 mg Cl·L^?1 the yield was on the optimum level but the content of 120 mg Cl·L^?1 declined it. Increasing chloride content in the nutrient solutions was reflected in rising of chlorine content in leaves. The concentration of chloride above 60 mg C·L^?1 reduced the content of nitrogen but above 90 mg C·L^?1 declined the content of calcium, sulfur and zinc in leaves. The antagonism between Cl:N, Cl:Ca: Cl:S and Cl:Zn was appeared. More variable interaction were between Cl:K and Cl:B. At the low levels of chloride, from 15 to 60 mg Cl·L^?1, potassium and boron content were decreased but at the higher ones, from 90 to 120 mg·L^?1, these nutrients had increasing course. It was not found out the effect of chloride contents on macro and microelement contents in nutrient solution emitted from drippers however their content upraising in root medium (rockwool). The highest increase was found out for Na 95.1 and 64.9 % (Exp. I and II - respectively), next for Ca (76.0, 70.1 %), Cu (62.5 and 71.0 %), Cl (43.6, 24.4), B (33.3, 21.0 %), N-NO₃ (30.4, 49.6 %), Zn (29.5, 32.8 %), S-SO₄ (25.9, 25.5 %), K (24.5, 24.1 %), Fe (19.8, 19.2 %), Mn (17.5, 21.3 %) and Mg (14.9, 11.7). Advantageous effect of chloride on tomato yield justified the need to introduce for the practice adequate chlorine nutrition, and recommend to maintain 60 to 90 mg Cl·L^?1 in nutrient solution. The best yield appeared when content of chlorine in leaves (8th or 9th leaf from the top) was in the range 0.48-0.60 % of Cl in d. m.     

环境友好农业生产的生态补偿机制探索与实践

围绕中德技术合作"中国华北地区集约化农业的环境战略"项目实施过程中,为鼓励农民采用节水、节肥、节药环境友好方式生产安全优质设施蔬菜,减轻农业面源污染,保护农业生态资源与环境而开展的生态补偿的实践进行论述,结合项目的实践从补偿原则、补偿对象、补偿标准、补偿形式、补偿环节、补偿监管等方面进行了探讨。笔者认为,建立健全农业生态环境补偿制度符合世界贸易组织农业协议绿箱政策,有利于推动环境友好技术的应用。环境友好农业生产的生态补偿应以项目(政府)补贴为主导,以农民自愿为前提,以骨干农户、农民专业合作社为主要补偿对象,以技物结合为主要补偿形式,以兼顾生态、经济和社会效益为目标。

长期施肥对菜田土壤微量元素有效性的影响

利用田间试验研究了长期定位施用有机肥和氮、磷、钾化肥对菜田土壤重要微量元素有效性的影响。结果表明,长期施用氮肥会提高土壤有效态铁、锰、锌、铜含量,随着氮肥用量增加,土壤酸化程度加重,土壤中铁、锰、锌、铜有效性亦随之增强。磷、钾化肥能够提高土壤有效铁、锰含量,对土壤锌有效性不会产生明显影响,在一定范围内可以提高土壤有效性铜含量,但效果不明显。长期施用有机肥对土壤微量元素的影响与配施的化肥种类有关。土壤有效铁、锰、铜含量与土壤pH呈极显著负相关,而有效锌含量与pH相关性不明显,而且关系比较复杂。总之,影响微量元素有效性的首要因素是土壤酸碱度。     

施用钾肥对叶菜产量和品质的影响

Over a period of two years, field experiments were conducted on four silty loam soils grown with foliar vegetable crops including Chinese cabbage (Brassica pekinensis Rupr., cv.Lu-Bai 3), autumn greens (B. chinensis L., cv.Piao-Geng-Bai), winter greens (B. var.rosularis Tsen et Lee, cv.You-Dong-Er), and summer greens (B. chinensis L., cv.Zao-Shu 5), respectively. Each experiment included one CK treatment without K, N and P fertilizers applied, and four treatments with from low to high doses, 0~300 kg hm^-2 for Chinese cabbage, 0~150 kg hm^-2 for autumn and winter greens and 0~180 kg hm^-2 for summer greens, of K fertilizers in the form of sulfate of potash (SOP) applied together with N and P fertilizers. One treatment of K fertilizer in the form of muriate of potash (MOP) applied at high levels (150 or 180 kg hm^-2) together with N and P fertilizers was included in the experiments of autumn, winter and summer greens, respectively, in order to compare the effects of SOP and MOP. The market yields of the tested crops increased significantly with the increasing rate of K application. The crops supplied with K fertilizers yielded more stably as the CV% of their yields decreased with the rate of K application. K fertilization increased not only K contents but also the amounts of N, P and K absorbed in shoots of autumn, winter and summer greens, which were statistically significantly correlated to their yields. It can also be found that potassium improved the quality of the foliar vegetable crops as their dry mater contents were generally increased and Vc contents obviously increased and nitrate contents markedly decreased. As compared to MOP, SOP was more effective on the yields and quality of autumn, winter and summer greens at the high levels of fertilization.     

种植年限对蔬菜大棚土壤肥力的影响

选取不同种植年限蔬菜大棚、露天菜地和一般农田，测定了土壤pH值、有机质、全氮、硝态氮、铵态氮、速效P、速效K和阳离子代换量等主要养分。结果表明：大棚土壤pH值小于露天菜地、小于农田土壤，随种植年限的延长土壤逐渐酸化。3年以后大棚菜地土壤已明显出现N、P严重富集，K含量降低，不同种植年限大棚土壤阳离子代换量随种植时间延长而下降。7年以后的大棚已大部分出现肥力障碍。     

太湖流域典型设施蔬菜地土壤结构特征研究

快速城市化背景下设施蔬菜产业迅速发展，研究设施蔬菜地土壤结构演变特征，对强烈人为作用下土壤资源的可持续利用具有重要意义。本文以太湖地区水稻田、露天菜地和设施菜地为研究对象，采集表层和犁底层土壤进行理化分析，以土壤大孔隙（>50μm）、土壤水稳性团聚体表征土壤结构，通过与当地传统的水稻田和露天蔬菜地两种土地利用方式对比，研究设施菜地土壤结构的变化特征，并分析了其影响因子。结果表明，设施蔬菜种植显著增加了土壤大孔隙，并提高了土壤团聚体的稳定性，大孔隙方面主要增加了耕层（0-15cm）50-500μm和>500μm部分的孔隙度，其孔隙度与水田相比分别提高了133%和141%，与露天菜地相比分别提高了120%和50.4%；土壤团聚体表现为小团聚体减少，大团聚体增加，相比于水稻田和露天菜地，耕层水稳性团聚体平均重量直径（MWD）提高了72.3%和26.6%，团聚体破坏率（PAD）降低了46.5%和37.8%；犁底层MWD分别提高83.9%和78.1%，PAD降低42.9%和44.8%。有机质和土壤质地与土壤传输孔隙和团聚体稳定性具有显著相关性。相关分析结果表明，土壤结构参数与有机质含量和砂粒粉粒含量显著相关，研究区土壤质地为粉砂壤土，质地轻，设施菜种植中有机肥施用量倍增，有机质含量显著提高，有利于增加设施蔬菜土壤的大孔隙，增加大团聚体含量，提高团聚体稳定性。轻质粉砂壤土进行设施蔬菜种植后每茬施用有机肥11.3t/ha，能改善土壤结构，有效避免集约化种植后土壤板结现象。
