Table 1.

Soil properties and soil nutrient status (ammonium acetate–lactate (AL) extractable P, K and Mg) at the experimental site in 2018 and 2019.

Property 2018 2019
Clay (g kg−1) 145 145
Total N (g kg−1) 2.4 2.3
Total soil organic C (g kg−1) 25.9 24.7
pH (H2O) 5.8 5.7
P–AL (g kg−1) 0.034 0.038
K–AL (g kg−1) 0.109 0.110
Mg–AL (g kg−1) 0.194 0.201

The soil was sampled in 0–0.3 m depth after the application of fertilization, and the 5 sampling points were different in 2018 and 2019. Fertilization with 140 kg ha−1 N, 24 kg ha−1 P and 46 kg ha−1 K was applied directly after sowing in both years. The soil organic carbon content was measured using dry combustion and infrared gas analysis (LECO).
