Effect of soil additives on biogeochemistry of ultramafic soils-an experimental approach with Brassica napus L.

ABSTRACT: Ultramafic soils are characterized by low productivity due to the deficiency of macroelements and high content of Ni, Cr, and Co. Incorporation of ultramafic soils for agricultural and food production involves the use of fertilizers. Therefore, this study aims to find the soil additive that decreases the metallic elements uptake by plant using Brassica napus as an example. In this study, we evaluate the effect of manure (0.5 g N/kg of soil), humic acids (1 g of Rosahumus/1 dm³ H₂O; 44% C), KNO₃ (0.13 g K/kg of soil), lime (12.5 g/kg of soil), (NH₄)₂SO₄ (0.15 g N/kg of soil), and Ca(H₂PO₄)₂) (0.07 g P/kg of soil) on the phytoavailability of metallic elements.
