Calculation Method on Fertilizer Demand for Crops Nutrient Balance Method Balance fertilization is to put forward target yield

and determine the varieties, quality and proportion of required fertilizer to achieve target based on fine measuring soil, according to the orderliness of fertilizer requirement of crops, referring to yearly yield and combined with the expamination in fields. In actual production, various compoun fertilizer or special compound fertilizer manufactured by compound fertilizer manufacturers shall be seclected to realize balance fertilization. At present, The important methods to determine the amount of fertilizer application have nutrient balance method, index method of nutrients rich or defection and function method of fertilizer response. There are advantages and disadvantages on these methods, but it is compared that the nutrient balance method is applied, which is to determine the amount of fertilizer application based on the test of soil nutrient, the formula as below Amount of fertilizer application !g"mu#rate of nutrient absorption per unit of crop yield $target yield % soil measured value$&.'(")nutrient content of fertilizer$utilization rate of fertilizer* In which &.'( is conversion factor, means soil fast%released nutrient convert into the nutrient factor provided by the cultivation layer per mu. The utilization rate of nitrogen fertilizer is is +&%,&-, for phosphorus fertilizer is '&%+.- and for !alium fertilizer is /&%.&-. 0or example A certain of wheat varieties shall be absorbed +1!g pure 2, &.3!g 4+5. and +.16g 6+5 per mu for '&&!g yield of wheat, but in fact the content of fast released nitrogen is (,ppmmg"!g, available phosphorus is ',ppmmg"!gand available potassium is (&ppmmg"!gin this fields, in order to achieve the yield of .&&!g per mu, 2#+.1$.&&7'&&%(,$&.'(#/.+(!g 4+5.#&.3$.&&7'&&%',$&.'(#+.+(!g and 6+5#+.1$.&&7'&&%(&$&.'(#/.3!g shall be required.

In the case of the application of 2, 4 and 6 compound fertilizer, the amount of fertilizer application shall be determined based on the requirement of minimum nutrient, and then the other two !inds of nutrient shall be supplied additionally. 0or example the application of ,.- general%purpose compound fertilizer )'.%'.%'.*, 3.19'.-#(,.1!g this !ind of compound fertilizer shall be applied for this field, and then )'&.8%(,.1$'.- * 9,(-#+.,!g 2 fertilizer )urea* and ''./% (,.1$'.-9',-#''.,!g 4 fertilizer )calcium superphosphate* shall be supplied additionally.
