Purpose Potassium (K)-fractions, thresholds of K release and fixation, quantity-intensity (Q/I) parameters of K, K-release kinetics, and K-fixation capacity were compared for their effectiveness in differentiating the effect of various nutrient management practices on K supplying capacity of an Aeric Endoaquept soil after 45 years of puddled rice cultivation. Materials and methods Soil samples (0–15 cm) were collected after the completion of 45 rice-rice cycles from an on-going longterm fertilizer experiment located in ICAR-National Rice Research Institute, Cuttack, India. The treatments involved control (unfertilized), N (nitrogen fertilizer), NP (N+ phosphorus fertilizer), NK (N+ potassium fertilizer), NPK (N + P + K fertilizer), FYM (farmyard manure), N + FYM, NP + FYM, NK + FYM, and NPK + FYM. Results and discussion Rice cultivation without K fertilizer application resulted in lower values of soil K parameters than the Kfertilized treatments. Treatment effects were most prominent on release threshold concentration (RTC), followed by cumulativeK release, K-release rate constants, and K-fixation capacity. Parameters of K-release kinetics and Q/I relationships showed better correlation with rice grain yields than soil-K fractions. Soil K thresholds were closely related with exchangeable (Kex) and nonexchangeable K (Knx), but not clay minerals. Conclusions Among the soil K parameters, RTC, cumulative K release (Kf) with 0.01MCaCl2, release rate constants (bR and bS) of parabolic diffusion equation, and K-fixation capacity were most effective in revealing the nutrient management induced variations in soil K fertility. In the studied soil, K-thresholds were significantly related to Kex and Knx. Not Available |
