“…4). The study indicated that the application of EM has no significant effects on soil pH, which correlates with the results of studies by Jakubus et al (2010) and Radkowski and Radkowska (2018). The soil fertilized with manure was characterized by the highest content of C org among all of the experimental variants, by 18% in buckwheat plots and by 42% in plots with millet, compared to the control.…”

“…The manure used contributed to increasing the concentration of N and P by 39 and 18%, respectively. Grains collected from EM plots contained 14% more P and 11% more Mn than those from control plots, which correspond to the results of studies conducted by Radkowski and Radkowska (2018). In a properly balanced diet, which provides the body with minerals necessary for good health, their proper distribution should be ensured first (Tab.…”

“…Ramakrishnaiah and Vijaya (2013) reported the positive effects of bio-preparations on the concentration of N, P and K in soil. An increased accumulation of K in the soil after the use of bio-inoculants was also proved by Bohrer et al (2003) and by Radkowski and Radkowska (2018). A reduction in the level of absorbable forms of Mg in soil treated with EM (by 16%, in millet cultivation) was confirmed Zydlik and Zydlik (2008).…”

“…For the buckwheat grain grown in plots, on which EM were applied, significantly more K (by 2%), Mg (by 12%), Cu (by 37%) and Fe (by 14%) were found. The application of the microbial preparation facilitated the uptake of K, Mg, Cu and Fe by the plant (Radkowski and Radkowska 2018). Grain harvested from plots treated with a mineral fertilizer was significantly more abundant in Ca (by 33%), Cu (by 51%), Mo (by 8%) and Zn (by 37%).…”

A b s t r a c t. The experiment was conducted in 2016 and 2017 in the vegetation hall of the Faculty of Environmental and Agricultural Development, West Pomeranian University of Technology in Szczecin.The main goal of the study was to assess the influence of the biological preparation of effective microorganisms (EM), mineral and natural fertilization on: the yield of buckwheat (Fagopyrum Mill.) and millet (Panicum miliaceum L.), the SPAD index (leaf greenness index), the content of macro-and microelements in grain (N,

“…An example could be P, which in type E meadow soils was almost twice as high as in soils of type D meadows, while its concentration in the sward of type E meadows was 25% lower than in the sward of type D meadows. The obtained results can be partly explained by the study of Radkowski and Radkowska [41], who unequivocally found that the flow of elements from soil to plants was affected by the composition of soil microorganisms, which affected the efficient use of soil nutrients. Soil microorganisms were not the subject of this study, but it could be assumed that their species composition would be related to the species composition of meadow vegetation and soil type.…”

The Content of Macro- and Micro Minerals in the Sward of Different Types of Semi-Natural Meadows of Temperate Climate in SE Poland

Seminatural meadows are characterized by a rich botanical composition, which determines their specific type. The content of macro-and micro minerals in sward seems important for ruminant farmers. The aim of the study was to determine the content of macro-and micro minerals in the sward of selected meadow types. The study was carried out in SE Poland from May to July in the years 2010-2017. The relationship between the content of each of the studied elements (N, P, K, Mg, Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn) in soil and plants was investigated, as well as whether there were differences between the average content of elements in the sward of different types of meadows. In some types of meadows there was a correlation for K, Fe, Cu, Mg and Mn. The largest differences in the content of macro minerals in the sward were found for Mg (44%) and K (42%), and in the case of micro minerals for Mn (56%). Large differences resulted primarily from different plant species; composition forming a given meadow community and not the content of these elements in the soil. The results can be applied to the proper management of farms, especially organic ones.Available research results indicate differences in the nutrient content of the sward depending on the season of the year [8], and, in particular, on the amount of precipitation, and thus soil water content [14,15]. Therefore, the assessment of the standardized precipitation and evaporation index is important in grassland management [16]. Soil moisture is also a factor strongly determining meadow botanical composition [17], as well as its proper management [18,19].In the present study, samples were collected on all meadows in the same period under comparable weather conditions. The aim of the study was to determine the content of macro-and micro minerals in the sward of specific types of meadows in the semi-natural temperate climate of SE Poland. Materials and Methods Study AreaThe research was carried out from May to July 2010-2017 in various types of seminatural meadows of the highlands, in different conditions of habitat moisture, soil pH and richness in selected macro-and micro minerals. The research area (Figure 1) included physiographically diverse fragments of the Central Beskid Foothills and the Carpathian Foothills .8713 • E). The southern part is distinguished by the presence of uniform hills running from northwest to southeast, and their absolute heights range from 250 to 350 m above sea level. Brown, loam and luvisols are the most common soils there, alluvial soil occurs in river valleys and low peats in low basins. The length of the growing season varies from 210 to 225 days and the average annual rainfall from 700 to 800 mm. There are uplifted plains in the central and northern parts of the study area lying at an altitude of 220-250 m a.s.l. Luvisols and brown soils occur in this area, alluvial soils in river valleys, and swamps in drainage areas. The average annual rainfall is 600-700 mm and the growing season lasts 220-225 days.

The study pertained to environmentally-friendly methods in the cultivation of cereal, and aimed to manage the quality of rye and triticale seeds and determine the impact of seed conditioning using effective microorganisms (EM), red light (RL), and a combination of the two (RL × EM) on the yield of grain and straw. Moreover, the seeds were sown into soil with and without EM conditioning, designated as 0 and PEM. The yield fluctuations depended mostly on the studied rye and triticale cultivars. The best effects we observed in soil without EM conditioning for Dańkowskie Złote rye and Moderato triticale. The increase in grain and straw yields was, respectively: 26% (RL), 31% (RL × EM), 40% (EM), and 17% (RL × EM), 23% (RL), 32% (EM) – Dańkowskie Złote, 27% (RL × EM), 44% (EM), 46% (RL), and 17% (RL × EM), 51% (EM), 78% (RL) – Moderato. In turn, seeds exposed to the experimental treatment and sown into soil containing EM produced reduced yields in both of the above cultivars. It is noteworthy that the conditioning methods employed in the field experiment can facilitate increased yields but most importantly contribute to the resilience of agrosystems and can therefore have environmental benefits.
