Mehlich 3 soil test extractant: A modification of Mehlich 2 extractant

A. Mehlich · 1 Dec 1984

Abstract The objectives of this study were to modify the Mehlich 2 (M2) extractant to include Cu among the extractable nutrients, retain or enhance the wide range of soils for which it is suitable and minimize it's corrosive properties. The substitution of nitrate for chloride anions and the addition of EDTA accomplished those objectives. The…

Rapid colorimetric determination of nitrate in plant tissue by nitration of salicylic acid

D.A. Cataldo, M. Maroon, L. E. Schrader et al. · 1 Jan 1975

Abstract An analysis is described for the rapid determination of nitrate‐N in plant extracts. The complex formed by nitration of salicylic acid under highly acidic conditions absorbs maximally at 410 nm in basic (pH>12) solutions. Absorbance of the chromophore is directly proportional to the amount of nitrate‐N present. Ammonium, nitrite, and chloride ions do not…

A rapid and precise method for routine determination of organic carbon in soil

Jane C. Yeomans, J. M. Bremner · 1 Oct 1988

A simple method for routine determination of organic carbon in soil by a modified Mebius procedure is described. It involves (a) digestion of the soil sample with an acidified dichromate (K2Cr2O7‐H2SO4) solution for 30 minutes in a Pyrex digestion tube in a 40‐tube block digester preheated to 170°C and (b) estimation of the unreacted dichromate…

A wet oxidation procedure suitable for the determination of nitrogen and mineral nutrients in biological material

John A. Parkinson, S. E. Allen · 1 Jan 1975

Abstract A digestion mixture suitable for the decomposition of soil and plant materials is described. This is based on sulphuric acid and hydrogen peroxide as oxidants with the addition of lithium sulphate to elevate the digestion temperature and selenium as catalyst. The subsequent solution is suitable for the determination of nitrogen, phosphorus and most mineral…

NUTRIENT USE EFFICIENCY IN PLANTS

V. C. Baligar, N. K. Fageria, Zhenli He · 30 Apr 2001

Invariably, many agricultural soils of the world are deficient in one or more of the essential nutrients needed to support healthy plants. Acidity, alkalinity, salinity, anthropogenic processes, nature of farming, and erosion can lead to soil degradation. Additions of fertilizers and/or amendments are essential for a proper nutrient supply and maximum yields. Estimates of overall…
