Abstract

Fulvic acids are a crucial component of soil that influence various chemical, biological, and physical aspects of soils as well as increase nutrient availability. We examined that application of plant-derived liquid (PDL) fulvic acid on three low obstacle, typical Chinese soil can improve the soil fertility and enhance the plant growth and nutrients uptake. The pot experiments were carried out on three different Albic (AL), Irrigated Desert (IR) and Shahjiang Black (SH) soils, the Plant-derived Liquid (PDL) fulvic acid (FA) was applied at rates of 0.50% as well as control applied at 0% along with three replications. The results showed that PDL FA significantly increases the SOC content in three soils highest SOC was detected at SH, however the SOC fractions were significantly decreased in AL, SH and no-significant difference was recorded at IR. Similarly, the soil pH was significantly increased in AL and decreased at IR and SH, however, the electrical conductivity of IR decreased and increased in AL and SH comparing with initial soil pH and electrical conductivity. The results also examine that available nitrogen, phosphorus of AL, IR and SH soils were increased, however, available potassium content was decreased in IR and increased at AL and SH comparing with initial values. The highest Ca and Mg content was observed in SH and organic degree compound were found 26.7% AL, 49.2% IR and 18.2%, SH soil, conversely the organic-inorganic composite was observed lower. This study suggests that the PDL FA significantly increases the nutrient content of AL, IR and SH soils comparing with initial soil properties.
