Residual Effect of Chicken Manure and Response to Rate of Major Plant Nutrient Fertilizer by Cassava Planted in Warin Soil Series
Main Article Content
Abstract
Soil fertility degradation results in low yield of cassava in the northeast. Therefore, an investigation of the residual effect of chicken manure previously applied 2-year before planting cassava and the yield components and nutrient uptake response to the rate of NPK chemical fertilizer by cassava, Huay Bong 80 variety planted in Warin soil series was carried out in a farmer field, Nakhon Ratchasima province. The experimental design was arranged in a split plot with four replications. The main plot comprised the application of chicken manure at the rate of 0, 3.125, 6.25 and 12.5 t/ha with 10 rates of NPK fertilizer being compared in the subplot. Results showed that chicken manure addition had no clear impact on yield components and NPK uptakes of cassava, but cassava clearly responded to differing NPK rates. Cassava produced the significantly highest fresh tuber yield and starch yield in non-amended plot added with 100:50:100 N:P2O5:K2O/ha. Decreased P fertilizer resulted in a clear reduction of cassava yields with zero P giving the yields of almost as low as no NPK fertilization. Cassava took up K in the highest amount followed by N whereas P was taken up in much smaller amount than K and N. Cassava took up the greatest NPK quantities in tuber followed by in leaf and branch, stem, and stem base, respectively. The results demonstrated that the application of chicken manure at a proper rate in a sandy soil should be implemented annually combining with NPK fertilization to maintain cassava yield at a satisfactory level while the use of 100:50:100 N:P2O5:K2O/ha should still be recommended in the case of no addition of chicken manure.
