Abstract:

This paper aims to explore the effects of microbial fertilizer application in coastal saline wheat field on reducing soil salt content and the growth response of winter wheat. Field experiments with different kinds of biological products and different amounts of microbial fertilizers were conducted in the coastal saline wheat field of the Yellow River Delta area. The data of soil salinity, wheat plant height, SPAD value, canopy NDVI and wheat yield were collected. The effects of microbial fertilizer on salt reduction and growth response of winter wheat were systematically analyzed by comparative analysis and variance analysis methods. The results showed that different kinds of biological product treatments had a certain salt reduction effect, and the salt contents of both the surface and the lower soil layers decreased with the range between 11.66% and 33.89%. The salt reduction effect of the microbial fertilizer was the most obvious. In each treatment, the increase of SPAD value of wheat was from 22.78% to 31.64%, the increase of NDVI value was 27.18%-44.74%, and the increase of wheat yield was 1.85%-20.49%. The effect of microbial fertilizer treatment was the best. When the application rate of microbial fertilizer was less than 7 kg/hm 2, the salt-reducing effect increased with the increase of the application rate, and the growth and yield of winter wheat also increased significantly. While when the application rate exceeded 7 kg/hm2, the effect decreased, so the best application rate was 7 kg/hm2. Our results indicate that the application of microbial fertilizer in coastal saline wheat field has significant salt reduction effect and a positive impact on the growth and yield of winter wheat.

Key words: microbial fertilizer, soil salt content, saline wheat field, winter wheat growth, salt-reducing effect
