Abstract: |
Magnesium slag-based Si-K fertilizer is synthesized by magnesium slag with potassium carbonate
(K2CO3)at high temperature. It contains a variety of mineral components such as K,Si,Ca,Mg,etc. A pot
experiment was set to explore the effects of magnesium slag-based Si-K fertilize on soil fertility and the growth of plant.
Results showed that the available K,slow available K and effective Si content increased by 64.80%,33.43% and
18.85% in the salty soil by applying 2 g/kg magnesium slag-based Si-K fertilizer,meanwhile fresh weight and leaf K
content of Brassica campestris L. were significantly promoted compared to that of control. Applying magnesium slagbased
Si-K fertilizer could promote the growth and K selective absorption of B. campestris L. by improving the available K
content and effective Si content in the soil. However,the pH and heavy metal content of soil were influenced significantly
by applying excessive magnesium slag-based Si-K fertilizer. Moderate or acidic medium should be selected to mix with
magnesium slag slow-release fertilizer in the long-term fertilization,aiming to play an important role in soil amelioration
and fertility enhancement. |
