“…The higher rates of zeolite and vermicompost had more available water than the lower rates due to the higher water holding capacity (WHC), therefore its ability to improve water content of the treated soils. These findings are in line with those obtained by Wu et al, (2019). There was no significant difference between means have the same alphabetical superscript letter in the same column (p≤ 0.05)…”

Improving water retention and nutrients in sandy soils is crucial for agricultural productivity under water shortage. Vermicompost (V) and Zeolite (Z) were applied to soil as alone or mixture to quantify their effect on sandy soil properties, physiological efficiency of nutrients and water use efficiency of cultivated wheat under three levels of moisture content (100, 80 and 60% from filed capacity) for 60 days in pot experiment. Treatments of vermicompost and zeolite were control-,1 and 2% as alone and 0.5%V+0.5%Z ,0.5%V+1%Z, 1%V+0.5%Z and1%Z+1%V as combined. The mixture of 1% Z+0.5% V had higher fresh and dry weights of wheat, macro nutrients content and uptake by wheat under all levels of moisture content as compared to other treatments. The WUE and Physiological efficiency of NP and K increased significantly by increasing the rates of zeolite and vermicompost either alone or mixture, especially at the lowest moisture content of field capacity. Soil porosity, bulk density, and the availability of soil macronutrients and water were associated by applications of zeolite and vermicompost. So, the synergistic effect of zeolite and vermicompost that carried out during the period of experiment on soil properties and nutrients uptake clearly occurred. Hence these results are enhancing plant growth under water shortage which can be used to improve, cultivate new areas and to enhance water use efficiency of wheat plant.

“…That is why maintaining and/or improving soil quality is among the greatest challenges we are facing today. In order to counteract the unfavorable phenomena that occur in soils, a number of amendments /conditioners for improving structure and fertility of soils have been developed, e.g., for decreasing soil acidity (liming preparations) [9], for increasing root respiration, and growth, as well as plant yield (preparations with salts of humic acid) [10], for increasing the soil water capacity (preparations with hydrogels and/or zeolites) [11], and finally, for increasing the soil microbial activity (preparations with microbial consortia or specialized strains of bacteria and/or fungi) [12,13]. The commercially available "Solactiv" that was used in this study is an innovative, multiple mineral-organic conditioner that consists of four balanced components: (1) zeolite-clinoptilolite to increase the sorption and water capacity of soil, (2) calcium carbonate to stabilize the soil reaction, (3) potassium humate that contains humic acids and (4) an Ascophyllum nodosum extract to stimulate the multiplication and growth of soil microorganisms.…”

“…Soil nutrients that are bound by zeolites, e.g., potassium cations, can be released and taken up by plant roots, which has a direct impact on yield quantity and quality [14,16]. This not only increases the use of nutrients by plants, but also decreases their transfer into the groundwater [11,16]. When using zeolites, it is possible to use lower doses of fertilizers, which consequently reduces the costs of cultivation, while maintaining the quantity and quality of the yield [16].…”

Application of Multi-Component Conditioner with Clinoptilolite and Ascophyllum nodosum Extract for Improving Soil Properties and Zea mays L. Growth and Yield

The application of various conditioners in agriculture is one of the management practices used to improve soil quality and plant growth and development. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of a multi-component conditioner on the selected soil properties and maize (Zea mays L.) growth and yield. The effect of a conditioner on a set of soil properties and maize growth and yield was studied in one-year experiments carried out at three study sites, which were under a conventional tillage system. All of the study sites were located on farms in three geographic mezoregions in the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Region (Midwestern Poland). The studied soils were Haplic Luvisol (Janocin and Kobylnica) and Albic Luvisols (Krukówko) that were composed of sandy loam. A one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to determine the effect of a conditioner Solactiv on the soil and plant properties. The conditioner significantly affected the soil enzyme activities such as dehydrogenase (DHA), fluorescein sodium salt hydrolysis level (FDAH) and carboxymethylcellulose cellulase (CMC—cellulase); wherein the last one increased by about 16–20%. The application of Solactiv also increased the available K content (about 11%) but not the content of the microbial biomass C and N. Total porosity (TP), which was significantly higher in the soil treated with conditioner than in the control soils, increased the available water capacity (AWC) (about 2.2%). The higher AWC in the treated soil indicated the greater contribution of the mesopores in the TP (about 4%). A significantly higher readily available water capacity (RAWC) and small pores available water capacity (SAWC) was determined in the treated soils compared to the controls. Of the plant properties, only plant height, fresh cob biomass (BBCH 87–89) and fresh plant biomass (BBCH 84–85) were significantly increased by the conditioner. The application of Solactiv is considered to be a promising approach for developing sustainable agriculture by improving the soil’s biological activity and water-related properties.

The Application of Zeolite to Increase Nitrogen Use Efficiency in Corn Vegetative Growth in Coastal Sandy Soils

Coastal sandy soil is one form of marginal land that has low productivity. This type of soil contains low available nutrients and has a low ability to store water due to the dominance of sand fraction. Low clay mineral and organic matter content cause the soil not to form aggregates, with a weak structure or even without structure (Bruand et al., 2014), so it does not have soil colloids as nutrient binding complexes.The coastal sandy soil area of Bugel beach Kulon Progo is part of more than 10,000 hectares of sandy beach stretching along the southern coast of Bantul and Kulon Progo. Bugel sandy beach has
