Abstract
A greenhouse experiment was conducted on February, 1994 at Faculty of Agriculture, Khon Kaen University to determine the effect of cattle manure on growth and mineral composition of sorghum seedlings grown in Yasothon soil (Oxic Paleustult) treated with varying amounts of AiCl3. The treatments consisted of four Al rates: 0, 1, 2 และ 3 me Al/100 g soil and four cattle manure rates: 0, 2, 4 lla: 6 ton/rai. The experiment was factorially arranged in a randomized complete block design with four replications. In the absence of cattle manure, increasing amounts of A1 in the soil significantly decreased dry matter production and P concentration in plant tops. The addition of cattle manure to pots containing A1 significantly increased dry matter yield of sorghum plants. Increasing the cattle manure application also suppressed the reduction in plant growth, which accompanied A1 stress. The significantly decreased in A1 concentration in plant tops as a result of the application of cattle manure were shown. The beneficial effect of cattle manure was also significantly increased in the P, K, Ca, and Mg contents of the sorghum tops. The cattle manure treatment also significantly increased pH but significantly decreased levels of exchangeable A1 and% A1 saturation in soil used in the study.
