Passivity of gypsum application on soil pH and its significance on exchangeable calcium, available sulphur and yield of paddy, maize and groundnut under different soil conditions
Abstract:Changes in the pH of acidic, neutral, and alkaline soils in response to various rates and types of gypsum such as slag-based gypsum (SBG) and commercial gypsum (CG), and their effects on soil exchangeable calcium (Ca2+) & available sulphur (S) and yield of different crops were studied in field conditions. Statistical investigation such as linear regression model was used to know the relationship of gypsum application with crop yield revealed that application of SBG and CG was positively and significantly r… Show more
