“…Concomitantly, the Cd accumulation of those plant parts follows their yields increment as well (Figure 1). This agrees with the findings of [12,[15][16][17][18] who observed greater yields with increased N rates and consequently greater Cd uptake in the studied plants. In fact, N is the most limiting nutrient as far as yield increase is concerned and, in the case of our study, the same evaluations carried out for P and K showed a positive correlation with ryegrass yields but no relationship was found between P and K with Cd accumulation in any plant part (data not shown).…”

“…Although some studies suggested that Cd concentration in plants decreased as their biomass increased by N application [13,14], other works concluded that N fertilizer not only improved plants' biomass but also increased their Cd concentration [12,[15][16][17]. In an experiment conducted by Symanowicz et al [18], N fertilization significantly contributed to increase Cd accumulation in the aboveground portion (shoots) of eastern galega. Thus, the effect of N application on Cd accumulation remains controversial [12].…”

Little is known about the effect of nitrogen (N) application via biochar on the removal of trace elements by crops, and the effects with chemical fertilizers are inconsistent. We determined, from a previous study, the influence of increased N addition via biochars produced from switchgrass (SGB) and poultry litter (PLB) on cadmium (Cd) removal by ryegrass. The biochar rates of 0, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4% w/w were applied to a Cd-contaminated soil before seeding in a potting experiment with a complete randomized block design (CRBD). Ryegrass yield and N and Cd removed by harvest were strongly related (p < 0.05). The ryegrass yields increased up to 1% of PLB, and Cd removal was also the highest at 1% of PLB. The biomass of ryegrass roots increased with Cd accumulation (p < 0.05). Overall, the Cd transfer factor (TF) from ryegrass roots to shoots increased when up to 206 ± 38 kg N ha−1 was removed in ryegrass shoots (p < 0.0001). The application of PLB up to 1% might be a viable option since it is a practical rate for handling operations requiring less volume of material than SGB. Additionally, the Cd concentration in the aboveground forage remained acceptable for grazing cattle. Future studies are encouraged to evaluate different sources of N fertilizers affecting Cd uptake on cash crops.

“…In the research of Rutkowska et al [41] nitrogen fertilization increased the content of iron, manganese, zinc, and copper and decreased the concentration of molybdenum in the soil. In an experiment by Symanowicz et al [42], nitrogen fertilization significantly contributed to a reduction in chromium, copper, and zinc contents, and insignificantly contributed to cadmium accumulation and an increase in lead accumulation in the soil. The cadmium and lead contents, however, increased in the next year of the study.…”

The aim of the study was to determine the effect of increasing potassium fertilization (0, 140, 190, and 240 mg K2O/kg of soil) in the interaction with nitrogen fertilization (130 and 170 mg N/kg of soil) on the trace elements content in the typical, non-contaminated agricultural soil. The trace elements content in the soil depended on nitrogen and potassium fertilization. Potassium fertilization had a more significant effect on trace elements content in the soil fertilized at the same time with a lower nitrogen dose (130 mg N/kg soil). Increasing potassium fertilization increased the content of cadmium by 83% and lead by 32% and reduced the amounts of chromium by 10% and iron by 3% in the soil, particularly in the series with a lower nitrogen dose (130 mg N/kg soil). The effect of potassium fertilization on the content of other trace elements was less unambiguous since, for most of trace elements, lower doses of this fertilizer contributed to growth of trace element, while higher doses lead to a decrease in their accumulation in the soil. Nitrogen fertilization increased the contents of zinc and iron—3%, copper—9%, manganese—12%, chromium—15%, and cobalt—59%, while reducing the contents of cadmium and nickel—24% and lead—45%. Permissible standards for trace elements content in the soil have not been exceeded.

“…Fodder galega is characterised by slow growth during the first year, with only some of the plants blossoming in the late summer or in autumn. However, starting from the second year, the plants enter a period of abundant growth, which they owe to their highly efficient fixation of atmospheric nitrogen, their easy uptake of nutrients from the arable and sub-arable soil horizons and the lack of specialist agrophages [14][15][16]. The long vegetative season of fodder galega, according to many authors, is a facto that contributes to its production of considerable volumes of biomass [17].…”

Fodder Galega—A Versatile Plant

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Fodder galega is a perennial, wintering plant, which in recent years has been gaining popularity, mainly because of its useful characteristics. Many researchers have noted its large yield potential and exceptional adaptability to various environmental conditions. The purpose of this study was to collect the most up-to-date knowledge about this valuable plant, a member of the Fabaceae family. Green fodder, especially that made from young plants, possesses very good biochemical parameters which allow it to be used in the nutrition of animals including poultry. Plantations of fodder galega can be set up on highly diverse soils, and in all systems of management. The yielding potential of this plant is appreciated on all farms: organic, extensive and conventional ones. Many scientific studies have demonstrated the usefulness of fodder galega for the protection of farmland that is periodically excluded from farming. In recent years, reports have been published suggesting the high potential of this plant for the acquisition of inexpensive energy from its biomass. Moreover, many scholars have emphasised the medicinal applications of fodder galega. The advantages of the cultivation of fodder galega are (1) its low nutritional requirements; (2) a lack of threats from the specialised pests; and (3) its positive effect on soil fertility. It is recommended that areas having undergone several years of fodder galega cultivation act as very good forecrop for plants with high nutritional requirements.
