The utilization of Zeolite minerals has recognized as new technology of recent few years, which decreases negative effect of chemical and nitrogen fertilizer with causes chemical, biological, physical and hydrological recovery of soil. Additionally, Zeolite decreases soil and underground water pollution, as well as it's a good amendment of soil and water. The goal of the study is, the effect of natural zeolite on part of soil traits on chemical properties. In this research three treatments (Zeolite 20% plus 80% soil, Zeolite 10% plus 90% soil, and Soil (control) in three replications were used. Soil into pots treated and remains for ten days, then some parameters soil reaction (pH), Electric Conductivity (EC), organic matter (OM), lime, Cation Exchange Capacity(CEC) and exchangeable sodium) was measured. Result revealed different amount of zeolites effect on soil, pH, EC, OM, lime, CEC, exchangeable sodium, showed significant difference (P≥0.
Farm of Afghanistan National Agricultural Sciences and Technology University (ANASTU), Kandahar, Afghanistan to find out most suitable groundnut variety and their phosphorus levels in the study region. The treatments combination was of two groundnut varieties (Kormaki and Paparri) and four levels of phosphorus as P2O5 (P0= 0 kg P2O5 ha-1, P1=40 kg P2O5 ha-1, P2= 60 kg P2O5 ha-1 and P3= 80 kg P2O5 ha-1), were tested in a split plot design. Result revealed that Paparri variety produced significantly higher growth attributes (plant height, dry matter accumulation and number of main branches plant-1) and yield attributes (number of pods plant-1, pods dry weight plant-1, 100 kernel weight and shelling percentage) over Kormaki variety. Likwise, paparri variety produced significantly higher pods yield, kernel yield, haulm yield and biological yield over kormaki variety. In the like manner, significantly higher gross return, net return and benefit cost ratio was recorded from Paparri variety, whereas residual nitrogen was found significantly higher in kormaki variety. Among phosphorus levels, 60 kg P2O5 ha-1 recorded higher values for growth parameters, yield attributes viz. number of pods plant-1, pods weight plant-1, 100 kernel weight and shelling percentage, and yields (including pods yield, kernel yield, haulm yield and biological yield).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
