Evaluation of the influence of additives from different types of compost on the soil properties
Metodi Kirilov Mladenov
University of Chemical Technology and Metallurgy, Bulgaria
T
he current study presents the results of the performed analyzes and the comparison of the effects of additives of different
types of compost on the soil properties. Three different compost types were obtained using different methods of production
- home composting method for the production of two of the composts was applied and the industrial composting installation
from the tunnel type for the third one was used. The results of experiments on the influence on the content of the basic
nutrients (N, P, K), pH, conductivity, humus, porosity, etc. are presented. Various mixtures were used between the starting
materials - compost and soil and pot experiments were carried out with an exsperimental plant culture. The choice of the
experimental culture was made after a preliminary study and on the basis of the characteristics - a short growing season and
reaching fruiting within six months of planting. The data obtained on the basis of the vascular experiments were analyzed
and the respective conclusions were summarized in two directions: on the agri-ecological efficiency of the differnent types of
composts; and on the most appropriate ratio (the respective mixture applied) for cultivation.
