Influence of long term manuring on cation exchange properties of soils

Abstract

                                The influence of fertilisers with and without the basal dressing of cattle manure on the cation exchange capacity and exchangeable calcium and potassium were investigated in the soils of the New Permanent Manurials, Coimbatore. The basal dressing of cattle manure was found. to have increased the cation exchange capacity. A correlation was found to exist between exchangeable calcium and cation exchange capacity. The application of potassic fertilisoг was found to depress the exchangeable calcium.
