“…A 1.2-g sample of ground plant material was ashed at 5008C for 4 h, treated with 2 mL of 2 M HCl, and the extract was analyzed for Cu and Zn (Gupta et al 1995). For soil analyses, a volume of 2.5 cm 3 of soil sample was shaken for 5 min with 25 mL of Mehlich 3 reagent and filtered as described by Mehlich (1984).…”

To avoid toxicity resulting in reduced crop yields and/or phytotoxic symptoms on the foliage, information on the residual effect of micronutrient fertilization after periods of application is desirable. This article includes discussion on the micronutrients copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn), because they are essential and are of concern from plant and animal standpoints. In general, no detrimental effects in yield reduction or phytotoxicity were noted from Cu applications of up to 50 kg Cu ha 21 to barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Barley was an exception where 50 kg Cu ha 21 decreased yield by about 12% in the first-year crop. The Cu levels in plants did not exceed 9 mg kg 21 . Studies showed that Zn applications of 50 kg ha 21 for 2 years in succession and the resulting crop tissue Zn levels as high as 105 mg kg 21 did not cause any phytotoxicity in cereals. The results of this study suggest that cereals can tolerate high levels of Cu and Zn.

“…Many studies have shown significant variability in the mineral concentrations among potato varieties (White et al, 2009; LeRiche and Wang‐Pruski, 2009; Gupta et al, 1995; Clough, 1994). Concentrations of P were higher in Ranger Russet than Umatilla Russet.…”

Sorption of plant nutrients from dairy storage lagoons by biochar and use as a supplemental fertilizer is a beneficial strategy to reduce nutrient contamination around dairies and supply nutrients to potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) and other crops. This research evaluated potato growth responses and P partitioning from several rates of P applied as either mono‐ammonium phosphate (MAP) or as P recovered from anaerobic digested dairy manure using biochar. Single‐stemmed plants of the potato cultivars Ranger Russet and Umatilla Russet were grown in 7‐L pots containing Quincy sand soil (mixed, mesic Xeric Torripsamment). Biochar amended with dairy effluent applied at 5.7 and 11.4 Mg ha–1 with fertilizer application rates equivalent to 55 and 110 kg P ha–1 maintained adequate P levels in potato petioles of both cultivars through 85 d after planting. Total plant P uptake was greater for treatments receiving MAP. Total potato biomass and tuber yields of Umatilla Russet were 30 and 27% lower when amended with basic or enriched biochar compared to MAP treatments, respectively. Tuber biomass declined 10 and 20% for Ranger Russet and Umatilla Russet for the 11.4 Mg ha–1 amended biochar, respectively compared to MAP fertilized treatments. Similar declines were found for the aboveground biomass and roots. The 5.7 Mg ha–1 of enriched biochar supplied 70 to 80% of the P requirement for potato growth. These findings are an important step in providing evidence of the benefits of using recovered P as a fertilizer supplement to reduce the reliance on rock phosphates.
