Behavior of nitrogen in the media supplied with the aqueous phase produced by methane fermentation as liquid fertilizer

pp. 859–864

Behavior of nitrogen in the media was investigated when the aqueous phase produced by methane fermentation was supplied as liquid fertilizer.

When the aqueous phase was supplied to masa-soil,  included in masa-soil was nitrified to . Additionally, in masa-soil,  absorption was observed. On the other hand, in the case of coconut fiber and rockwool, has been hardly nitrified. From above results, it was determined that  toxic effect from the aqueous phase on tomato plants growth was inhibited by means of the progress of nitrification and  absorption by masa-soil.

However, nitrification was restrained so that  was fixed in masa-soil. On the other hand, in the sampled field soil,  was not fixed, and was nitrified immediately. In the field soil, there was a great deal of generated . In comparison with masa-soil.     

Determination of Rhizobitoxine and Dihydrorhizobitoxine in Soybean Plants by Amino Acid Analyzer

Investigations were carried out on the effect of the activity ratio of potassium to calcium and magnesium in the nutrient solution applied by drip irrigation on the growth and nutrient uptake of lettuce (Lactuca sativa var. Great Lakes 366) grown on Tottori sand dune soil.

The of the soil solution was influenced by that of the nutrient solution. Calcium nutrition of lettuce was not influenced by the in the soil solution. However, the magnesium nutrition was improved at a low activity ratio, which resulted in the alleviation of the physiological injury.
