Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of agriculture, and relates to a method for improving the utilization efficiency of nitrogen and phosphorus in brick red soil and an application thereof, and particularly relates to a method for improving the utilization efficiency of nitrogen and phosphorus in brick red soil and an application thereof in improving the yield of crops planted in brick red soil. Background Art

[0002] Nitrogen and phosphorus are crucial soil nutrients, crucial for maintaining crop yields. Brick red soil, a deep red soil developed through intense iron-aluminization and bioaccumulation, derives its name from its color, which resembles burnt red bricks. Brick red soils enjoy favorable hydrothermal conditions and have long been important crop production areas in southern my country. However, nitrogen and phosphorus use efficiencies in brick red soils are generally low, with nitrogen utilization rates around 30% and phosphorus utilization rates around 20%. These low nitrogen and phosphorus utilization rates limit their development and utilization.

[0003] The low nitrogen and phosphorus utilization efficiency of brick red soil is closely related to its characteristics, such as low pH and weak water and fertilizer retention capacity. Improving the physical and chemical properties of brick red soil through technical means, thereby improving the nitrogen and phosphorus utilization efficiency of brick red soil, is an important way to improve the productivity of brick red soil arable land. Improving the nitrogen and phosphorus utilization efficiency of brick red soil can be achieved by improving the soil pH, increasing the soil microbial biomass, and increasing the soil organic matter content. Microorganisms are important reservoirs of soil nitrogen and phosphorus. Excess nitrogen and phosphorus applied to the soil can be absorbed and stored by soil microorganisms and then re-enter the soil environment as the microorganisms die and are absorbed and utilized by crops. Applying organic fertilizers can improve the soil's water and fertilizer retention capacity, promote nitrogen and phosphorus fixation, extend nitrogen and phosphorus turnover time, and improve nitrogen and phosphorus utilization efficiency. Summary of the Invention

As a storage reservoir of soil nitrogen and phosphorus, microorganisms can absorb and store excess nitrogen and phosphorus in their bodies, and then re-enter the soil environment as they die and are absorbed and utilized by crops; in addition, the application of microalgae cell sap to acidic brick red soil can also neutralize soil acidity and improve nitrogen and phosphorus utilization.
