GROWTH INCREMENT OF JUVENILE ACER PLATANOIDES L. AND SOIL ORGANIC MATTER AFTER APPLICATION OF ORGANIC FERTILIZERS
Journal Title: Natural Resources and Sustainable Development - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
The effect of fertilization with organic fertilizers (Siapton and Biohumus) on the growth of Acer platanoides L. saplings was investigated. Four variants were used: Variant V1 - "Siapton" - 1 ml per sapling; variant V2 - "Siapton" 50 ml per sapling; Variant V3 - "Siapton" 50 ml per sapling + 0.5 mg "Kristalon" dissolved in 500 ml of water; Variant V4 - Siapton " 50 ml per sapling + 50% Biohumus and Control (K) - non-fertilized variant. The growth of saplings by root collar diameter (RCD), diameter at breast height (BHD) and height (H) for two years after application of the fertilizers were measured. The best growth results have the saplings where the two organic fertilizers were applied - V4. The application of organic fertilization also improves the soil indicators - the total carbon content (Ct%) was increased, the proportion of "aggressive" fulvic acids was reduced and the ratio: carbon in humic acids / carbon in fulvic acids (Ch / Cf) were enhanced. This gives us reason to recommend organic fertilization in the cultivation of Acer platanoides L. saplings for the needs of forestry and urban planning.
