Essential Nutrient

Fly ash contains K, P and trace elements which are the essential nutrients for plant growth. Cow dung has a lot of N element. It’s a good way to mix the fly ash with cow dung according to a certain proportion as an artificial soil for plant growth. This design can offer different kinds of essential nutrient elements and make the fly ash which is difficult to control harmless. This experiment mixes fly ash with cow dung in different proportion, then with different qualities of sand. A pot experiment of planting corn is carried out to observe the morphological changes and measure the dry weight of corn, pH and EC of an artificial soil. The result shows that B0 mixture (fly ash: cow dung is 2:1 with no sand) is best for corn growth. Using an artificial soil of a certain proportion of fly ash and cow dung mixed to plant corn is feasible.

SUMMARYNitrogen deficiency severely limits production of the bean–maize association grown by small-scale farmers in upland Peru. Sixty-four bean Rhizobium isolates were evaluated for induction of a plant growth response in pots of soil from the area and 14 of the most promising strains of these were tested on farmers' fields in 13 trials over a three year period. Bean yields were increased by inoculation with at least one Rhizobium strain in seven of the trials, with increases ranging from 0.21 to 0.68 t ha−1. Bean yields were not increased by the application of 120 kg N ha−1 to the intercrop. Maize yields were increased by Rhizobium inoculation in nine of the 13 trials by between 0.34 and 1.85 t ha−1. Maize responded to nitrogen fertilizer on the same nine farms. This Rhizobium selection strategy, although laborious, was effective in identifying strains that can be recommended for use as inoculants by farmers in the region.
