| Abstract/Contents: | "Soil-plant potassium (K) dynamics were studied using a long-term field experiment in order to evaluate the plant performance and K delivering capacity of the soil parent material. Rye grass (Lolium perenne L.) based rotations on a loamy sand derived from granitic bedrock were studied over 30 years with two K-fertilisation regimes, nil (K0) and 65 kg K ha-1 yr-1. Mineralogical and chemical methods were combined to identify and quantify soil K resources including the partitioning of K between minerals. Two or three cuts were taken annually and herbage yield and composition together with exchangeable soil K were analysed. Herbage yield declined with time and significantly reduced when the K concentrations approached 1%. The grass K concentration also declined over time and stabilized at around 0.5-0.7% (dw) in K0 in all cuts. Input-output mass balances showed an accumulated net K off-take (deficit) of 1,100 kg ha-1, i.e. 35 kg ha-1 yr-1. With an exchangeable K pool of 100 kg ha-1 (in the rooting zone 0-40 cm) this indicated a substantial release of K from mineral sources, most probably biotite and hydrobiotite. Assuming a similar net off-take was continued then this particular mineralogical K source would be depleted within two centuries. The study illustrates the strength of combining long-term field experimental data with state of the art quantitative mineralogical methods in order to assess site-specific resources, which can form a basis to evaluate the sustainability of different management practices." |
