Effect of fertilization and harvest frequency on yield and quality of tall fescue and smooth bromegrass

Abstract

Fertilization and harvest frequency affect yield and quality of forages. The purposes of this experiment were to determine (i) the effects of fertilization and frequent harvesting on yield and quality of tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) and smooth bromegrass (Bromus inermis Leyss.) and (ii) the efficiency of N in animal waste as compared with inorganic N fertilizer for forage production of these cool season grasses. ‘Fawn’ tall fescue and ‘Southland’ smooth bromegrass were grown in the greenhouse on Pullman clay loam topsoil (fine, mixed thermic Torrertic Paleustoll) under eleven fertilizer treatments and two harvest regimes. Nitrogen fertilizer increased yields, N and K concentrations and K/(Ca + Mg) ratios and decreased P, Ca, and Mg concentrations. Phosphorus and K fertilizers did not affect yields but applied P increased P and tended to decrease N and Ca concentrations. Applied K tended to increase Ca concentrations. Recovery of N from feedlot manure ranged from 0.8 to 14%, whereas, recovery from NH₄NO₃ averaged 64%. Harvesting at 3‐week rather than at 6‐week intervals reduced yields 25%; however, N and P removal were higher under the 3‐week harvest regime. Even though forage production was reduced under heavy utilization, the grasses required more N fertilizer under heavy than under lighter utilization. The two grasses produced similar yields under the 3‐week cutting regime and at N rates through 340 kg/ha under the 6‐week cutting regime. Tall fescue yields were higher with the higher N rates under the 6‐week cutting regime. Smooth bromegrass forage was higher than tall fescue forage in N, K, and Ca, whereas tall fescue forage was higher in P and Mg.     

Ryegrass forage yield and quality response to sulfur and nitrogen fertilizer on coastal plain soil

Abstract

Sulfur (S) deficiency has been reported in some upland soils of the southern United States and S application has improved forage quality on the low‐S soils. A field experiment was conducted for three years to determine ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum L.) dry matter yield and forage quality response to S fertilization. Prilled elemental S was applied each year at two rates (0 and 45 kg S/ha) in combinations with three rates of nitrogen (N) (168, 224, and 280 kg/ha). Wet depositions of S in rain were monitored over the seasons. Sulfur fertilization generally did not increase seasonal dry matter yield and plant uptake of S. Nitrogen application generally increased dry matter yield and protein content during the season. Averaged over the three‐year period, however, forage yield and S uptake increased from 7.7 to 10.5 Mg/ha and 13.9 to 18.8 kg/ha, respectively, as N fertilization increased from the lowest to highest treatment rates. Forage dry matter for each harvest ranged from 0.6 to 2.2 Mg/ha, while S, protein, in vitro dry matter digestibility (TVDMD), and N/S ratio tended to decline seasonally from 2.5 to 1.8, 266 to 142, and 795 to 716 g/kg, and 17.8 to 11.9, respectively. Sulfur input from rainfall was small with a three‐year average of 5.8 kg/ha (±0.64 SE). In some locations of the southern United States, S may not be limiting even when applying high rates of N to high‐yielding forages which annually remove large quantities of S. Because of the lack of yield response from S application and low inputs of S from wet deposition, S from sources other than rainfall may have been considerable.     

Applied phosphorus and potassium effects on yield of dallisgrass‐bermudagrass pastures 1

There are substantial areas of dallisgrass (Paspalum dilatatum Poir.)‐common bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L). Pers.) summer‐type pastures in the Southeastern Central Plain, but little information is available on their response to P and K fertilization. The purpose of this study was to measure the response of dallisgrass‐common bermudagrass pastures to P and K fertilization with and with‐ out N. Phosphorus and K were applied to two soils in May each year for three years. Yield data were collected by clipping a swath through the length of the plots when the minimum forage height was approximately 30 cm. Responses to P and K applications were obtained when the soil test levels were low to very low, but not when they were medium as determined by the Mississippi Soil Test (MST). Forage P concentration of the control in the medium P and K soil was within the adequate range of 2.8 to 3.4 g/kg, but forage K concentration was below the critical range of 16 to 18 g/kg. Forage P and K concentrations of the controls in the low P and K soil were below critical levels. At both locations forage P and K concentrations were increased by P and K fertilization. Available soil P increased with rate of P application but soil extractable K was unaffected by K application. No yield response to P and K are likely at medium soil test levels (MST) even at high rates of N. There was no response to P and K application without N.     

Effect of Nitrogen Fertilizer Rate and Harvest Season on Forage Yield,Quality, and Macronutrient Concentrations in Midland Bermuda Grass

Bermuda grass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.] is a major forage for grazing and hay production in the southern United States. The objectives of this study were to determine effects of nitrogen (N) fertilization rate (0, 112, 224, 336, and 448 kg ha^?1), split spring and summer applications of N at the 224 and 448 kg ha^?1 rates, and harvest periods (spring and summer) on forage yield, crude protein (CP), acid detergent fiber (ADF), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), total digestible nutrients (TDN), and concentrations of phosphorus (P), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg), and calcium (Ca in Midland Bermuda grass. Data were collected from 2002 to 2008 as part of an ongoing, long-term soil fertility experiment in southern Oklahoma. Repeated measures analysis of these long-term data showed that forage yield responses to N rate varied with year and harvest time with up to 2.5-fold yield differences among years. Nitrogen fertilization increased CP, TDN, and macronutrient P and Mg and decreased ADF and NDF. Crude protein was increased by ≥50%, and ADF and NDF dropped by up to 25% with the greatest N rate. In general, split N applications did not affect forage yield but produced low-quality forage compared to single N application in spring. Split application of 448 kg N ha^?1 gave forage with CP, TDN, ADF, and NDF similar to the Bermuda grass receiving 336 or 448 kg N ha^?1 as a single application. Spring forage had better forage quality than summer harvests. While N fertilization increased forage Mg and P concentrations by more than 50% during both spring and summer, it had no effect or slight increased K and Ca concentrations. In the southern Great Plains, despite the weather-dependent variability in forage yield of Bermuda grass, N application increase forage quality.     

FERTILIZER RATE EFFECTS ON FORAGE YIELD STABILITY AND NUTRIENT UPTAKE OF MIDLAND BERMUDAGRASS

Our objectives were to document effects of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) fertilizer rates on forage yields and uptake of N, P, and K by Midland bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.] on a Minco fine, sandy loam in southern Oklahoma. After six years of this long-term experiment, forage yield responses to fertilization were mixed and depended on year. Stability analysis indicated forage yields responded positively to N fertilization during favorable weather conditions but negatively during poor weather conditions. Application of 112 kg N ha^?1 provided the best yield stability and mean annual forage yield among treatments, 11.5 Mg ha^?1, across years. In years with near-average weather conditions, uptake of N, P, and K increased linearly with N application rate. Limited water holding capacity of the soil and high soil P and K may have contributed to the limited yield responses to fertilization in this semi-arid environment.     

不同灌水量下氮磷钾配施对青稞产量和品质的影响

为探明在不同灌水量下青稞氮磷钾适宜施用量和最佳配比,研究不同灌水量下氮磷钾配施对青稞产量、品质的影响, 2018 — 2019年以春性二棱青稞品种陇青1号为指示品种,在甘肃河西灌区大田栽培条件下采用裂区试验设计,设置灌水为主区、施肥为副区并采用“3414”设计进行田间试验。对青稞产量及其构成因素及品质进行方差分析的结果表明,在各灌水处理下,青稞产量构成因素各项测定指标至少与1个其他指标极显著或显著相关性;在相同氮磷钾配比下青稞平均产量全生育期灌水2次和全生育期灌水1次较全生育期不灌水分别显著增产59.5%、52.8%,灌水2次较全灌水1次增产4.4%;各灌水处理下,13个施肥处理较不施肥处理显著增产,增产率分别为不灌水0.1%～26.2%、灌水1次0.9%～28.3%、灌水2次7.8%～22.7%,且施肥处理N2P2K3、N2P2K0和N3P2K2产量始终较高;各灌水处理下,氮、磷、钾施用量和产量的三元二次回归方程均能反应青稞产量与氮磷钾三要素之间的极显著相关关系。一元二次肥料效应方程下,青稞最高产量施肥量分别为N 189.11 kg/hm2(全生育期不灌水)、186.75 kg/hm2(全生育期灌水1次)和196.50 kg/hm2(全生育期灌水2次);P2O5 61.69 kg/hm2(全生育期不灌水)、48.77 kg/hm2(全生育期灌水1次)和-27.38 kg/hm2(全生育期灌水2次);K2O 61.11 kg/hm2(全生育期不灌水)、60.60 kg/hm2(全生育期灌水1次)和77.44 kg/hm2(全生育期灌水2次)。整体而言,青稞籽粒蛋白质含量随着灌水量增加而降低,籽粒淀粉含量随着灌水量增加而升高。推荐该区春青稞生育期浇水1次,即于拔节期按1 500 m3/hm2灌入。在此水分条件下推荐的N、P2O5、K2O施用量分别为186.75、48.77、60.60 kg/hm2,此时青稞籽粒产量可达到4 355.24 kg/hm2。     

Pecan [Carya illinoensis (wangenh.) C. Koch] yield,leaf and soil analysis responses from different combinations of nitrogen and potassium application

Abstract

Nitrogen rates of 112 and 224 kg/ha and K rates of 0, 56, 112, 168, and 224 kg/ha were applied to young ‘Desirable’ trees annually in order to determine leaf concentrations for optimum pecan yield and to measure their effect on other leaf minerals and the resulting effect on soil analysis. Yield was not affected significantly by treatments within any individual year of 11 years; however, when data were combined over years, yield was greatest at the 56 kg/ha rate of K and decreased at lower and higher rates. The decrease in yield with increasing K rates was smaller for the high than for the low N rate. Doubling the N rate increased leaf N only slightly, but increased leaf Cu and reduced soil pH, Ca, and Mg. Increasing K application had very little effect on leaf N. This study indicates that a lower leaf analysis threshold for the sufficiency range of 0.75% for K and 2.50% for N would be satisfactory for ‘Desirable’.     

Yield,forage quality,and nitrogen recovery rates of double‐cropped millet and ryegrass

Abstract

Pearl millet and annual ryegrass were continually doubled‐cropped on Olivier silt loam soil for seven years at six levels of N, applied as ammonium nitrate in three applications to millet and in two applications to ryegrass. Forage yields increased as N application rates increased. During seven years at the 0 and 448 kg/ha N rate, millet produced 35% and 95%, respectively, as much yield as it produced at the 800 kg/ha N rate, while comparable values for ryegrass were 19% and 83%. At 448 kg/ha of N the two grasses produced a combined yield of over 20 Mg/ha of dry forage per year. Ryegrass yields following millet were consistently lower than yields previously obtained at this site.

Nitrogen applications consistently increased concentrations of N, Ca, and Mg in both forage grasses, while effects on P and K were variable and S concentrations were unaffected. The amounts of all nutrients removed in the forages were increased as yields increased with N application rates. Nitrate‐N levels considered to be toxic to ruminant animals occurred only where N applications exceeded 170 kg/ha at any one time. In vitro digestibility of each grass was consistently increased by N applications.

The percentage of fertilizer N that was removed in the crops ranged from 66% to 68% for millet and from 35 to 52% for ryegrass as N applications increased up to 448 kg/ha. Residual ammonium and nitrate levels in the top 1.2 m of soil were not increased by N rates of 448 kg/ha or lower. At the 800 kg/ha N‐rate, the apparent N recovery rate decreased and residual ammonium and nitrate levels increased throughout the soil profile.     

Effects of liming on yield,forage cation composition,and tetany potential of wheat in Kansas

Abstract

We studied the effects of liming on dry matter production, nutrient composition, and grain yields of wheat in field experiments conducted on two soil types at three locations during the 1976–77 and 1977–78 growing seasons. Lime sources were commercial agricultural lime, finely divided stack dust, and dolomitic limestone (which contained 10.6% Mg). Lime applied at 2,800 kg/ha in the 1976–77 and 10,750 kg/ha in the 1977–78 experiments provided Mg from the dolomite at rates of 300 and 1,140 kg/ha, respectively.

Soil pH was significantly increased by liming, but Mg saturation percentages were significantly greater only at the 1,140 kg/ha rate. Forage dry matter and grain yields were not increased by lime applied at the lower rate, but significant increases were found in dry‐matter production in the late fall and spring samplings of the 1977–78 experiment. Those increases in plant growth and dry matter production were probably due to reductions in the soluble Mn and Al concentrations in the soil. Forage N and P concentrations were generally not influenced by liming. Potassium concentrations in forage from the limed plots were usually equal to or greater than those in forage from unlimed plots. Calcitic limestone sources generally increased forage Ca concentrations, but liming with dolomite more often than not depressed Ca concentrations below levels found in the check plots. Dolomite, when applied at the 1,140 kg/ha rate, effectively increased the forage Mg concentration, although the concentration exceeded 0.2% only during the early growth stages. Liming generally showed no significant reduction in the tetany potential of the wheat forage as predicted by the equivalent ratio K/(Ca + Mg).     

Effects of nitrogen,phosphorus, and potassium nutrition on yield,rates of kernel growth and grain filling periods of two corn hybrids

Abstract

Depression of corn grain yields from nutrient stress has been studied extensively, but effects of nutrient stress on rates of corn development and yield determinants are less well understood. Nutritional effects on the number of kernels/unit area, growth rate/kernel, and duration of growth have implications concerning fertilization practices and yield potentials of crops. Two corn hybrids with equivalent silking dates but having different grain filling periods were grown in a field experiment. Fertility treatments consisted of a N series receiving 0, 112, or 336 kg of N/ha and a P‐K series receiving factorial combinations of 0, 22, or 112 kg of P/ha and 0, 56, or 224 kg of K/ha. Dates for grain initiation and maturity were determined for each plot along with tissue analyses of ear leaves, grain yields, and kernel weights. Concentrations of N and K in ear leaves generally corresponded to treatment levels of these nutrients, although Pioneer Hi‐bred 3390 appeared to be less efficient than Pioneer Hi‐bred 3334 in K uptake. Effects of nutrient stress on yield determinants depended on the determinant and nutrient under consideration. Severe N stress did not change length of grain filling periods, but decreased kernel numbers 30 to 70%. Stress for K, on the other hand, shortened grain filling periods about 13% and had only a slight effect on kernel number. Negligible P stress occurred in the experiment. The two hybrids produced equal quantities of grain/ha/day but the hybrid with a longer filling period (Pioneer 3334) filled many more kernels at a slightly slower rate and for a longer period of time to give a significantly greater grain yield compared to Pioneer 3390.     

渭北旱塬小麦施肥效果及肥料利用效率研究

总结2006~2009年陕西省渭北旱塬测土配方施肥项目180个3414试验数据,分析当前生产条件下旱作区小麦施肥效果以及施肥量、 土壤肥力水平对小麦产量、 经济效益、 肥料利用效率等的影响,为提高旱作小麦产量和肥料高效利用提供依据。结果表明, 施用氮（N）、 磷（P2O5）、 钾肥（K2O）小麦分别增产986、 679和405 kg/hm2,增产率为30.0%、 18.9%和9.5%,增收1098、 810和392 Yuan/hm2,对小麦产量的贡献率分别为21.5%、 14.8%和8.8%,农学效率分别为6.4、 7.1和7.1 kg/kg; 施肥增产、 增收效果以及肥料贡献率均表现为N＞P2O5＞K2O,农学效率表现为P2O5＝K2O＞N; 与不施肥相比,平衡施用氮、 磷、 钾肥（N+P2O5+K2O）小麦增产73.0%,增收1923 Yuan/hm2,对产量的贡献率为40.0%,农学效率为5.8 kg/kg; 过量施用氮、 磷、 钾肥均无显著减产效应,推荐施肥处理化肥的增产、 增收效果, 对产量的贡献率以及农学效率均最高。土壤肥力对化肥肥效有显著影响,投肥于中、 低肥力土壤既能实现养分高效利用又能获得较大经济效益。与20世纪80年代相比,氮肥利用效率明显降低,磷肥肥效基本不变,而钾肥肥效在快速提升。合理施肥与耕作、 栽培等多种措施相结合是旱区作物增产、 增收的有效途径。     

不同供氮水平对夏玉米养分累积、转运及产量的影响

通过田间小区试验,研究了高肥力土壤上施N.125、250、375.kg/hm2对夏玉米生物量、子粒产量、N、P、K养分累积动态、及氮肥表观利用率、养分转运的影响。结果表明,不同施氮量只影响夏玉米不同生育时期养分的阶段累积量,而对累积趋势基本无影响。植株生物量及N、P、K养分累积量随生育期的延长而增加,且它们的累积趋势相似,都呈S型曲线。各处理的子粒产量在7000～7700.kg/hm2之间,只有N250处理增产达显著水平;氮肥表观利用率在10%～18%之间,随施氮量的增加略有降低。施氮可提高子粒中的氮素累积量,而对磷的累积量影响不大。随着施氮量的增加,氮素的转运量、转运效率及其在子粒中的比例都降低,磷的转运与氮表现出类似的趋势。综合考虑产量、氮肥利用率、养分转运及环境污染等因素,该地区夏玉米的推荐施氮量应控制在125.kg/hm2以内。     

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。     

Effect of fertilization and irrigation upon NPK composition of corn leaves,on corn yields,and available k in soil

Abstract

Corn (Zea mays L.) was grown for three consecutive years on Congaree loam to measure the effects of rates of N, P, and K fertilization and irrigation on the nutrient concentration of leaves, the level of available K in the soil, and on the yield of corn. Plant nutrients consisting of 0, 56, 140, 224, and 280 kg N/ha; 0, 15, 37.5, 60, and 75 kg P/ha, and 0, 28, 70, 112, and 140 kg K/ha were applied in a central composite rotatable design in each of the three years. All plant residue was removed each year when the corn was harvested, and the plots remained fallow during the winter months. One half of the experiment was irrigated when there was a 50% depletion of available soil moisture in the 0‐ to 46‐cm soil depth.

Leaf composition was affected by fertilization and irrigation. A rapid decrease in available soil K in the 0‐ to 15‐cm depth was evident the first year with all rates of added K. The decline in available soil K was unaffected by irrigation and levels of applied N and P.

There were consistent yield responses each year to added N, no response to added P, and a response to added K only during the second year.     

Soil-Applied Nitrogen and Composted Manure Effects on Soybean Hay Quality and Grain Yield

ABSTRACT

Grain yield in many soybean experiments fails to respond to fertilizer nitrogen (N). A few positive responses have been reported when soybean were grown in the southern U.S., when N was applied near flowering and when biosolids were added. In a previous study, low N concentrations of soybean forage in north Texas on a high pH calcareous soil were reported and thus, we suspected a N nutrition problem. Consequently, we initiated this study to determine whether selected preplant N sources broadcast and incorporated into a Houston Black clay (fine, smectitic, thermic Udic Haplusterts) might increase forage N concentration, forage yield, or soybean grain yield. In 2003, N was applied as ammonium nitrate (NH₄NO₃, AN) up to 112 kg N ha^{? 1} and dairy manure compost (DMC) was applied at rates of 4.9, 9.9, 15.0, and 19.9 Mg ha^{? 1}. The DMC contained 5.9, 2.6, and 6.7 g kg^{? 1} of total N, P, and K, respectively; thus DMC added 29 to 116 kg N ha^{? 1}. In 2004, AN was applied at rates of 112 and 224 kg N ha^{? 1} and DMC was applied at 28 and 57 Mg ha^{? 1}; thus, DMC added 168 to 335 kg N ha^{? 1}. In another 2004 test, biosolids, a biosolids/municipal yard waste compost mixture (BYWC), and AN were compared. The biosolids contained 31, 18, and 2.9 g kg^{? 1} total N, P, and K, respectively. The BYWC mixture contained 8.8, 6.1, and 3.4 g kg^{? 1} of total N, P, and K, respectively. Biosolids were applied at 10 Mg ha^{? 1} (310 kg N ha^{? 1}), BYWC was applied at 58 Mg ha^{? 1} (510 kg N ha^{? 1}), and AN up to 224 kg N ha^{? 1}. None of the soil treatments increased soybean grain yield or forage yield although AN slightly increased forage N concentration in 2003.     

Effect of N and P fertilization on yield and quality of Kochia grown in the greenhouse

Abstract

The use of kochia (Kochia scoparia (L.) Schrad.) as a forage crop has recently generated considerable interest, but little is known about how fertilization affects yield and quality. Two greenhouse experiments were conducted; the first with a clay loam soil and 0, 67 and 135 kg P/ha, and the second with a sandy loam soil and extremely high rates of P, which were 0, 4.5, 9.0, 13.5 and 17.9 ton P/ha. Both had 0, 84, 168 and 252 kg N/ha in a complete factorial with the P levels. In the first experiment, dry matter yield, root dry matter yield and flowering percentage increased linearly with N, while Ca, P and oxalate percentage decreased quadratically with N. Oxalate levels were low with a mean of 1.98%. Phosphorus levels affected only P percentage, which increased quadratically with P level. No interactions were observed between N and P in the first experiment.

In the second experiment, the high levels of P increased dry matter yield, crude protein and oxalate percentages, especially at low N levels. For these three parameters, there was an interaction between N and P. Phosphorus percentage increased guadra‐tically with P level up to 2.85% P, but decreased quadratically with N level. No interaction between N and P was observed for P percentage. Phosphorus levels reduced Ca percentage, but N had no effect. Oxalate levels were higher in the second experiment, with a mean of 5.23%, which might cause toxicity problems to livestock.     

Soil chemical properties after long‐term n fertilization of bromegrass: Nitrogen rate

Abstract

Nitrogen (N) fertilizers increase yield and quality of grass forage, and may also alter soil chemical properties. A field experiment was conducted in south‐central Alberta to determine the effect of long‐term application of ammonium nitrate to bromegrass on concentration and downward mobility of soluble NO₃‐N, extractable NH₄‐N, P, Ca, Mg, and K, and total C and N in a Thin Black Chernozemic loam soil. The fertilizer was applied annually in early spring for 16 years at 0 to 336 kg N/ha. There was little accumulation of NO₃‐N in the soil at N rates of 112 kg/ha or less. However, at rates higher than 112 kg N/ha there was accumulation of NO₃‐N in the 15–30 and 30–60 cm layers, but very little in the 90–120 cm depth. The NH₄‐N accumulated in the 0–5 cm layer when the fertilizer was applied at rates between 168 to 280 kg N/ha and in the 5–10 cm layer at N rates exceeding 280 kg/ha. There was a decline in extractable P in soil with N application up to 84 kg N/ha rate, while it increased with high N rates. The increasing amounts of applied N resulted in a decline in extractable soil Ca, Mg and K, and this decrease was more pronounced in the 0–5,5–10,10–15, and 15–30 cm layers for K, 0–5 and 5–10 cm layers for Ca, and 0–5, 5–10, and 10–15 cm layers for Mg. There was a build‐up of total C and N in the surface soil with increasing rate of applied N.     

磷肥和钾肥对老龄多叶老芒麦牧草生物量和品质的影响

对8龄多叶老芒麦人工草地进行施磷、钾试验。结果显示,施磷肥对抽穗期、开花期和乳熟期老芒麦的地上生物量分别增重16.25%~50.32%、5.86%~35.74%和10.72~44.37%,施钾肥增重16.96%~51.56%、9.63%~58.32%和12.70%~46.91%。在氮钾或氮磷施量适中时,配施磷肥112.5 kg/hm2或配施钾肥75 kg/hm2时,老芒麦的地上生物量最大。配施磷和钾能显著增加老芒麦025 cm根重（P＜0.05）。配施磷或钾75 kg/hm2时,老芒麦05和025 cm根重最大,分别为8.97 g/m2、9.06 g/m2和21.39 g/m2、23.84 g/m2。配施磷和配施钾时,老芒麦茎秆中粗蛋白（CP）和粗脂肪（CF）含量呈先增后降变化,施磷75 kg/hm2或施钾112.5 kg/hm2时,老芒麦茎杆中CP和CF的含量最大。配施等量磷、钾肥,施磷茎秆中CP和CF含量高于施钾,二者最大值差分别是0.53%和0.38%。三个生育期内,老芒麦地上部分与地下根系增重不总是与施肥量呈正相关,相同施肥量下钾肥的增重略高于磷肥。     

施氮量对杂交棉氮、磷、钾吸收利用和产量及品质的影响

在高产条件下,研究了不同施氮量对杂交棉氮、磷、钾的吸收利用和产量及品质的影响。结果表明,增施氮肥显著提高了杂交棉氮、磷、钾的积累量,特别是显著提高了杂交棉后期氮、磷、钾的积累量和积累比例。施氮量N300 kg/hm2的子棉产量最高,比施氮量N 225 kg/hm2处理增产0.9%,但差异不显著。氮、磷、钾养分利用效率随施氮量增加而提高;但氮肥利用率随施氮量的增加而下降。施氮可以显著提高纤维长度和纤维比强度,而不同施氮量处理间纤维长度和比强度差别不大。     

Effects of nitrogen carriers,nitrogen rates,and maturity on composition of smooth bromegrass

Abstract

Magnesium and Ca concentrations in smooth bromegrass (Bromus inermis L) were not affected by late‐winter applications of N. Magnesium concentrations were constant until rapid growth in mid‐May then they declined until early June harvest. Highest seasonal concentrations were found in the fall regrowth. Calcium concentrations declined as plants matured in spring. Highest seasonal Ca concentrations were found in the fall regrowth. Nitrogen, P, and K concentrations and K/(Ca+Mg) ratios were increased by N applications during early spring but did not differ significantly by early June harvest. Nitrogen and P concentrations decreased as plants matured in spring and fall. K concentrations and K/(Ca+Mg) ratios changed inconsistently from sampling date to sampling date. Forage yields were approximately doubled by 67 kg N/ha and tripled by 202 kg N/ha. Significant yield differences were related to different N carriers.
