Effect of Soil Amendments on some Soil Chemical Properties in Saraburi Soil Series
Keywords:
soil amendments, soil properties, soil pH, calculus soil, incubationAbstract
Studying the effect of soil amendments on soil chemical properties in Saraburi soil series was collected under tillage farm of CKP, Saraburi province from March to August 2019. All soil samples were incubated with organic and inorganic amendments by using completely randomized design (CRD) with 6 treatments, 3 replications as followed: 1) control 2) ground coffee 3) pulp coffee 4) filter cake 5) pumice sulfate and 6) powder sulfur. The result showed that organic amendments had more influence on some soil chemical properties than inorganic amendments. Especially, coffee ground could reduce the level of soil pH from 7.73 to 7.01 in 12 weeks after incubation (p<0.01) and provided the highest percent of organic matter at 4.4%. In addition, filter cake caused the highest extractable P and Ca after incubation at 22 mgP/kg and 9,997 mgCa/kg, respectively. Clearly, pulp coffee gave the higher extractable K comparing with soil before incubation at 1,652 mgK/kg and ground coffee could increase the extractable Mg to 1,078 mgMg/kg, Moreover, incubated soil by filter cake showed the highest amount of extractable trace elements such as Fe, Mn, Cu and Zn. Furthermore, using coffee ground as soil amendment could inform for improving soil pH and increasing plant nutrition more than other amendments.
