Abstract:

To study the improving effect of humic acid soil conditioner on saline-alkali soil in the Yellow River Delta, humic acid soil conditioner was combined with conventional fertilizer, and a 3-year wheat positioning test on saline-alkali soil in the Yellow River Delta was carried out. The results showed that: the humic acid soil conditioner could improve soil chemical properties; compared with conventional fertilization, the soil organic matter, alkali-hydrolyzed N, available P and available K was increased by 3.8%-5.0%, 8.6%-12.0%, 16.4%-29.2% and 27.3%-30.7%, respectively, in soil treated by humic acid soil conditioner; compared with conventional fertilization, humic acid soil conditioner could improve soil salinity barrier, the soil pH was reduced by 0.30-0.43 units, soil exchangeable sodium percentage was reduced by 4.6%-27.2%, the desalination rate was 17.28%-23.53%, the content of soil Na+ and Cl- was reduced by 15.4%-42.7% and 20.7%-37.6%, respectively; there was no significant difference between humic acid soil conditioner application of 2250 kg/hm2and 3000 kg/hm2; compared with conventional fertilization, the wheat yield of soil applied with humic acid soil conditioner could increase by 7.47%-25.83%. In conclusion, humic acid soil conditioner of 2250 kg/hm2 is regarded as the optimum dosage to improve the saline-alkali soil and increase wheat yield in the Yellow River Delta.
