“…In order to properly identify plant fertilisation needs, the current supply of certain macroelements to the fertilised soils has to be known. These include such elements as phosphorus (Berg and Joern, 2006;Bünemann et al, 2011;Fernandes et al, 2000;Mc Dowell and Sharpley, 2003), potassium (Brennan and Bell, 2013;Fotyma, 2007;Moody and Bell, 2006), magnesium (Tkaczyk et al, 2016;Tyler and Olsson, 2001) and sulphate-sulphur (Gąsior and Alvarez, 2012;Szulc et al, 2014), and microelements such as boron (Majidi et al, 2010;Shaaban, 2010;Szulc and Rutkowska, 2013), copper Su and Yang, 2008), iron (Mcgrath and Zhao, 2006), manganese (Antonkiewicz et al, 2016) and zinc (Barczak et al, 2009;Domańska, 2009;Rutkowska et al, 2014a). This knowledge should be complemented by the equally important data on other physicochemical properties of the fertilised soils, such as pH KCl or humus content (Aponte et al, 2010;Lipiński and Bednarek, 1998).…”
