Abstract
Results are given of a field experiment on grey-brown podzolic soil [parabraunerde] in Poland made from loess between 1999 and 2002. Before the setting of the experiment, the soil was characterized by a neutral reaction, a very high content of available forms of phosphorus and potassium and the medium of magnesium. The aim of the research was to evaluate the influence of mineral fertilizer application, method of cultivation (the sum of ploughing in crop rotation was: 7, 3 and 1) and crop sequence: potato, spring wheat, pea and winter wheat, on the physicochemical properties of a grey-brown podzolic soil made from loess whose samples for analyses were taken from a layer of 0-20 cm each year after harvest. The experiment was set in a split-block method in four repetitions. The area of one experimental plot was 20 m SUP 2 . In autumn, farmyard manure was used for potato at the rate of 30 t ha SUP -1 and NPK fertilizer application at the rate of 60-26.2-58.1 and 90-39.3-87.2 kg/ha; for spring wheat: 50-17.4-49.8 and 75-26.1-74.7 kg/ha; for pea: 20-26.2-66.4 and 30-39.3-99.6 kg/ha; for winter wheat: 60-17.4-58.1 and 90-26.1-87.2 kg/ha. The fertilizers were used in the form of ammonium nitrate, triple superphosphate and potassium salt (49.8% K), potassium sulfate (43.2% K) was used for potato. Mineral fertilizer application and the different methods of cultivation did not cause considerable changes in any physicochemical properties of the soil: pH SUB KCl , the content of Al SUP 3+ , H SUP + , C SUP 2+ , Mg SUP 2+ , K SUP + , Na SUP + and total alkalic cations, total sorptive capacity and base cation saturation
