“…The use of basalt dust as a fertilizer in Indonesia is a new thing, while the potential of basalt which is used as fertilizer has been carried out abroad (Barak 1983;Knapik, 2005;Toscan and Sabedot, 2007;Haller, 2011;Jakubowski, 2013;Goreau et al, 2013;Theodoro et al, 2013;Lopes et al, 2014;Nunes et al, 2014;Bockman, 2016). The use of mineral particles as soil fertilizer, also known as a Stone Meal technique, can provide important macronutrient such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium and sulfur, as well as micronutrients such as Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn and Na, to the surface of the land/ water/ soil.…”

Indonesia has an abundant amount of basalt rocks resources, including in East Lampung Regency of Lampung Province. This basalt has not been used optimally and only be used as a foundation. The use of basalt as soil fertilizer also known as the stone meal. This study focused on the effect of using basalt dust on the growth and development of organic fertilizer application for the cassava plant. This study is to support the local government policies that declared Lampung as a national development centre of cassava, with a production rate of 30.8% of the national production of cassava. Basalt powder was characterized using test petrograph and X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) for a description of microscopic and chemical composition. The test results were used to determine the chemical composition of rock classification using the TAS diagram. The experiments of applying fertilizer on cassava crops in the demonstration plots 8 treatment x 3 repetitions were conducted by adding the percentage by weight of the basalt towards organic fertilizer between 0% (control 1), 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, and without treatment (control 2). The results indicated that basalt from East Lampung is classified as olivine Tholeite basalt which is rich in CaO, Mg and Na2O + K2O. The growth rate of cassava plants which are affected by basalt powder presentation is characterized by a value which is higher than the value of CGR control, and recommended to not exceed 10% of the weight of basalt fertilizer.

“…The search for new sources of alternative fertilizers that partly eliminate dependence on chemical fertilizers has been one of the objectives of numerous researches in Brazil Theodoro et al, 2012;Hanisch et al, 2013;Ramos et al, 2014Ramos et al, , 2015Lopes et al, 2014;Nunes et al, 2014;Manning & Theodoro, 2018;Aguilera et al, 2020aAguilera et al, , 2020bMedeiros et al, 2020;Ratke et al, 2020 ) and in the world (Straaten, 2006;Anda et al, 2009;Ramezanian et al, 2013;Beerling et al, 2018), in which the use of rock dust (basalt, amethyst, among others) has manifested itself as a viable alternative.…”

The use and incorporation of basalt powder in the soil have grown every year, and there are still no studies showing its effects on the physiological quality of soybean seeds. Thus, considering the importance of this response in the production system, the objective of the present work was to evaluate the physiological condition of soybean seeds after applying different doses of basalt powder in the soil. The experimental design used was completely randomized in a 3 × 4 factorial scheme, with three replications. The treatments consisted of three soybean cultivars, and four doses of basalt powder (0, 1, 3, and 5 t ha-1) produced in the 2018/2019 harvest in the region of Chapadão do Sul, MS. The tests carried out were: first germination count, germination, electrical conductivity, dry mass of the upper plant and roots, and tetrazolium test (vigor, viability, mechanical damage, moisture, and bed bug damage). The results were submitted to the normality test and analysis of variance, followed by comparisons of means by the Tukey test at the level of 5% probability. The results showed for the first time the combined effects of both factors tested only on the variables: electrical conductivity, root length, vigor, viability, and mechanical damage. The response obtained was dependent on the cultivars evaluated, which differed for all measured characteristics.

“…Due to its acid character (pH around 4), the vinasse can solubilize minerals contained in remineralizers. Lopes et al (2014), in a trial with diabase powder, observed greater availability of nutrients in vinasse treatments.…”

“…Soil remineralization, which consists in the use of ground rock in agriculture, can reduce acidity, increase the availability of soil nutrients to plants, stimulate microbial activity, and increase agricultural production (Silva et al, 2012). Several studies have been carried out to evaluate the effect of remineralizers on soils (Melo et al, 2012;Lopes et al, 2014).…”

The objective of this study was to evaluate the biometric parameters and leaf nutrient content of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) grown in succession to cover crops, as a function of the application of remineralizer doses (basalt powder) and vinasse. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse in the experimental design of randomized blocks in a 4x4x2 factorial scheme, with three replications. The first factor was remineralizer doses (0, 2, 4, and 8 t ha-1 basalt powder). The treatments with no cover crops (control) and with the cover crops crotalaria (Crotalaria juncea L.), millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.), and brachiaria (Urochloa cv. ruziziensis) constituted the second factor. The third factor corresponded to the presence or absence of vinasse (200 m 3 ha-1 , and 0 m 3 ha-1 , respectively). Plant height, shoot dry matter (SDM), leaf area index (LAI), Falker chlorophyll index (FCI), and leaf macronutrient content (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, and S) were evaluated. The association of cover crops, vinasse and remineralizer increased plant height and leaf contents of K, Ca, Mg, and S at the evaluated stage, but vinasse had a positive effect only on S content. Remineralizer doses associated with cover crops provided satisfactory levels of leaf macronutrients for common bean.
