Abstract:

To study the effect of one-off fertilization of slow-release fertilizer on the absorption of N, P, K and yield of machine-picked cotton, and determine the suitable fertilizer application amount for cotton area of Wangjiang, a field experiment was conducted using ‘Zhong915’ with treatments of three factors of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, and four fertilizer rates according to ‘3414’ fertilizer experiment model. The results showed that the boll number per plant and the boll weight of cotton under different fertilization treatments were higher than no fertilization treatment (CK), the lint yield of different fertilization treatments was 834.83-1443.35 kg/hm2, compared with that of CK, the lint yield increased by 37.9%-138.4%, and the lint yield of treatment of N2P2K2(N 150 kg/hm2、P2O5 75 kg/hm2、K2O 120 kg/hm2) was the highest. Compared with CK, the nitrogen accumulation per plant of cotton increased by 37.2%-79.4% under different fertilizer rates, with the increase of nitrogen accumulation per plant first increased and then decreased, and treatment of N2P2K2 had the largest nitrogen accumulation per plant. The accumulation of phosphorus per plant was significantly higher than that of CK, increased by 8.1%-53.5%, that of the treatment N1P1K2 (N 75 kg/hm2, P2O5 37.5 kg/hm2, K2O 120 kg/hm2) was the largest, and then was that of treatment N2P2K2. The accumulation of potassium accumulation per plant was significantly higher than that of CK, increased by 29.9%-97.0%, that of the treatment N2P2K3 (N 150 kg/hm2, P2O5 75 kg/hm2, K2O 180 kg/hm2) was the largest, followed by that of N2P3K2 (N 150 kg/hm2, P2O5 112.5 kg/hm2, K2O 120 kg/hm2) and N2P2K2. Overall, the treatment of N2P2K2 is the most suitable for achieving high yield and good correlated characters. Based on the comprehensive analysis of nutrient absorption and yield components, it is suggested that the most suitable fertilizer application amount of N, P and K should be N 150 kg/hm2, P2O5 75 kg/hm2 and K2O 120 kg/hm2.
