| Summary, etc. | A study was conducted at College of Horticulture during the period 1993-95 so as to assess the suitability of Tunisia rockphosphate for direct application in acid rice soils of Kerala as a source of P compared with single superphosphate (SSP) diammonium phosphate (DAP) and Mussoorie rockphosphate (MRP). In addition to above sources a control treatment (with no P fertilizer) and another treatment with SSP of the rate of 45 kg P2O5 ha-1) given twice (conventional practice) were also included. The P release from all the sources was monitored with an incubation experiment. In order to evaluate the residual effect of fertilizers two continuous pot culture experiments were undertaken using Triveni variety of rice. The acids soils of Kerala namely Kuttanad alluvium and laterites were used for the study. The soils showed variation in pH with submergence irrespective of the treatments. The different nutrients like N, K, Ca, Mg were higher in Kuttanad soil compared to laterite soil and was found to decrease with period of incubation. The available phosphorus content gradually increased with period of incubation and reached a peak .fit 60 to 90 days for water soluble phosphates and 90th to 120th day for rockphosphates. Comparing the two extractants, Mathew's triacid extracted more available P than that of Bray solution in both soil types. In general, Kuttanad alluvium recorded higher content of available nutrient as compared to laterite. The extent of fixation of P was higher in Kuttanad soil with Fe-P as dominant fraction while in laterite soil it was Al-P which was dominated. While evaluating pot culture experiment the different nutrients showed a decrease in soil and increase in uptake with the advancement of crop. Of the different soils Kuttanad alluvium registered a higher yield compared to laterite soil. It was found that TRP registered a comparable uptake of phosphorus and gave a comparable yield of grain and straw with other sources in laterite and Kuttanad alluvium. The residual effectiveness of rockphosphate was found to be higher than that of water soluble sources and TRP gave the highest. Of the two different type of soils Kuttanad soil showed a higher residual effectivenes and resulted in higher yield for 2nd crop while laterite soil registered a lower yield. |
