Alleviating Soil Acidification and Increasing the Organic Carbon Pool by Long-Term Organic Fertilizer on Tobacco Planting Soil

Long term tobacco planting leads to soil acidification. A ten-year experiment with various fertilization treatments (no fertilization (CK), chemical fertilizer (CF), organic-inorganic compound fertilizer (OCF), and organic fertilizer (OF)) was carried out between 2010 and 2020 in a continuous croppi...

A ten-year experiment with various fertilization treatments (no fertilization (CK), chemical fertilizer (CF), organic-inorganic compound fertilizer (OCF), and organic fertilizer (OF)) was carried out between 2010 and 2020 in a continuous cropping system of <i>Nicotiana tabacum</i> in the brown soil of eastern China, to assess the effects of organic fertilizer on the improvement of tobacco planting soil acidification. The results indicated that treatments OCF and OF reduced the soil exchangeable acid content, of which the exchangeable aluminum showed the largest reduction by 51.28% with the OF treatment.
