Abstract

This study aimed to determine the adsorption characteristics of K and the effect of soil properties on K adsorption. Four representative sugarcane growing soil series with different soil properties and widely used for sugarcane production in Sa Kaeo province, namely, Wang Hai soil series (Wi), Bang Khla soil series (Bka), Chiang Khan soil series (Ch), and Thap Phrik soil series (Tpk) were selected for the study. Soil sample was collected at the depth of plough layer and below plough layer to 60 cm for study. The results showed that the studied soils had low available K contents and low mineral K reserves. Potassium adsorption pattern showed a good fit with the Freundlich adsorption isotherm (R2 = 0.755–0.997). This result suggested that the K adsorption in these soils occurred on heterogeneous surfaces. The adsorption may have also occurred on exchange sites of clay minerals and adsorption sites of organic matter. Clay and organic matter contents in these soils positively correlated with the exchangeable K content and K sorption capacity of the soils.
