abstract:
Field experiments were conducted in 2000-2006 at the Agricultural Experimental Station Lipki on a field with high blueberry bush cultivated on sandy soil. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of 7-years irrigation of blueberry plantation on chemical properties of soil. Every year, after irrigation and harvesting, pH, C-organic, N-total, N-NH4, N-NO3, and available P, K, Ca and Mg were determined in 0-20 cm soil layer. On irrigated plots the soil acidity and content of potassium and nitrate nitrogen decreased, but the content of phosphorus and ratio of C/N did not change. However, the content of calcium, magnesium, total and ammonium nitrogen and organic carbon increased.
