Soil Nutrients Distribution in Intercropping System of Apple and Soybean on West Shanxi Loess Plateau
In order to investigate the spatial distribution characteristics of soil nutrients in fruit+crop intercropping system
Malus pumila+Glycine max intercropping pattern
typical and representative in the loess region of West Shanxi Province
was studied and soil nutrients in the intercropping system of different ages were monitored separately for comparison. Results showed that:(1) In vertical direction
with the increasing soil depth
available K
available P and organic matters decreased
while total N increased at first and then decreased.(2) In horizontal direction
with the increase in the distance from tree row
soil nutrient contents in 4-year-old intercropping system and 6-year-old intercropping system showed a "W" type distribution
while the 8-year-old intercropping system had a "M" type distribution(except total N). Coincidently
all the extreme values appeared in the distances of 1.5
2.5 and 3.5 m from tree row
and soil nutrient contents at the maximum points were significantly different from those at the minimum points(p<0.05).(3) Nutrients competition relations between fruit trees and crops changed gradually with the growth of the trees
and the competition of soil nutrients in the 8-year-old intercropping system was fiercest. In accordance with the distribution characteristics of soil nutrients in intercropping systems
nitrogen fertilizer should be the main fertilization
the distance of fruit tree and crops should be increased or planting crops in 8-year-old apple orchard should be prohibited.
