Abstract

Calcareous soil suffers from deficiency in available of potassium due to its high contain of CaCO₃. So, it is important to increase the availability of potassium. Potassium release rate constant is an important indicator for the ability of soil to supply potassium. A field experiments in sulaimani governorate was conducted to evaluate the effect of soil amendment with natural zeolite at rate of (0 and 2 t ha^-1), three levels of Nano potassium fertilizer (0, 5 and 10 kg ha^-1), three levels of conventional fertilizer K₂SO₄ (0, 100 and 200 kg ha^-1 K₂O) and their interactions on kinetic of potassium release within 55 days. Results revealed that there was significant effect of application Zeolite on cumulative K-release that increased by 13.27 % relative to the control treatment. the application Nano, conventional K fertilizer and their interaction with zeolite at level of 5 kg ha^-1 Nano, 200 kg ha^-1 K₂O and 10 kg ha^-1 Nano + 100 kg ha^-1 K₂O amendment with 2 t ha^-1 zeolites increased the cumulative K-release from 33.55 to 35.35 and 42.45 mg kg^-1respectively as a compared with control (24.00 mg kg^-1). Kinetic data were best described by parabolic diffusion, power function and Elovich models. The cumulative K-release rate constants for parabolic models indicated that all types of fertilizers applied to soil gave high and significant increase in rate of K release compared to the control treatment.
