In the present study, zeolite tuffs of diverse chemistry, mineralogy and origin were characterized and tested for their efficiency as slow release fertilizers (SRF) through a series of leaching tests. Mixtures of zeolite tuffs were created and tested as loamy soil additives, in order to evaluate any synergistic effect on their cation exchange capacity (CEC) and SRF properties. The studied materials were a chabazite-rich tuff (SOR), a mordenite-rich tuff (KIM), 3 mixtures of them (SOR/KIM 30/70, 50/50 and 70/30) and a commercial clinoptilolite-rich tuff (BLG). CEC (sodium acetate method) was 95.7 for BLG, 100.9 for KIM and 92.2 cmol kg -1 for SOR, while their mixtures displayed intermediate values. SRF values vary, with the SOR/KIM 30/70 exhibiting the slowest NH 4 + release in 29 days (1.7%) compared to the control sample (19%). Zeolites promoted PO 4 -3 release, while their selectivity for Mg 2+ and K + was clearly affected by their different structure and chemistry. BLG exhibited the strongest selectivity for Mg 2+ , having the lowest release (39%). The results demonstrate that mixtures of zeolite tuffs could have a potential use in agricultural processes, by improving parameters like: chemistry, mineralogy, CEC and SRF efficiency,and resulting in the production of a competitive and functional soil additive.

A comparative analysis of the forest growth features of low-productive grey forest sandy soils of the Polissia, the Forest-Steppe and the Northern Steppe of Ukraine was performed. Although grey forest soils from different natural zones are distinguished in the genesis of their soil rocks, as well as typical and zonal belongings, at the same time they are united by an important general characteristic, light texture, determining the similarity of physical, physico-chemical and agrochemical indicators and, in general, forest site capacity. A package of markers to assess the forest site capacity of sandy soils (pine habitats) with such soil quality indicators as the content of physical clay, the coarseness of the humified layer of soil profile and K2O content was revealed.

“…Thus, the UZ was the nitrogenated fertilizer that presented the lowest amounts of N volatilized as NH 3 , only 14.12% (5.30 mg ring -1 ). For Torma et al (2014) nitrogenous fertilizer, combined with mineral zeolite, can be used in agriculture as a soil conditioner due to its high element retention capacity (elements like nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, in addition to water), releasing them slowly, and it may reduce nitrate (NO 3 -) leaching losses and NH 3 volatilization. One should also consider the reduced accessibility that microorganisms have to the NH 4 + adsorbed on the zeolite structure, preventing the transformation of NH 4 + into NO 3 -and reducing nitrogen losses (Mumpton, 1999).…”

The loss of nitrogen through volatilization leads research to the search for new technologies that release nutrients in a manner synchronized with the crop demand, minimizing losses and increasing efficiency of its use in agriculture, as is the case with the stabilized slow-release nitrogen fertilizer. This work sought to evaluate the losses of volatilized N-NH 3 in stabilized slow-release nitrogen fertilizer applied to the soil. The treatments followed a 5 × 3 × 2 factorial as follows: five nitrogen fertilizer sources (conventional urea -CU; urea combined with zeolite -UZ; sulfur coated urea -US; NBPT coated urea -U NBPT , and urea combined with organic material -OU); three application times; and two managements (surface and incorporated applications) with three replications. The experiment was conducted using a collection chamber to capture NH 3 for 25 days, with samples taken at 2, 4, 7, 9,
