Özet:

 


Organic amendments need different management
strategies and integration with chemical fertilizers for maximum benefits. The influence of
various organic amendments in Zn nutrition was evaluated in two diverse
calcareous soils. Amendments including FYM, PM and BC were applied at 20 t ha-1
with 0, 3 and 6 kg Zn ha-1 to maize-wheat cropping system in
low limed Charsadda (6.6 % CaCO3) and high limed Peshawar (16.6%
CaCO3) soils. Growth and grain yields of first season maize and
succeeding wheat crop increased with increase in Zn levels and amendments with
relatively higher response in Peshawar than in Charsadda soil that may be
attributed to initially lower fertility status of Peshawar soil. The
application of Zn with amendments also significantly increased the grain Zn and
postharvest soil [Zn] in both soils. Among amendments, PM showed better
performance in increasing crop growth and yields in both locations followed by FYM
in maize but in succeeding wheat the biochar became more effective withstanding
statistically at par to both PM and FYM. This increasing promising effect of BC
with time reveals its slower but long lasting effects in crop production. FYM
and BC required relatively higher amounts of Zn than PM and as such integration
of 3 kg Zn ha-1 with PM, and 6 kg Zn ha-1 with FYM and BC
is recommended for enhanced crop production. Furthermore more, the application
of BC is recommended for long lasting results but its initial higher cost may
hinder its application at large scale.
