Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of supplement of Zeolite mineral whose C.E.C. is high, on the nutrients content in the compost and changes of compost status during its stacking period in 1982. The results obtained were summarized as follows : 1. By the supplement of Zeolite, the decomposing temperature in the compost was tended to be continued higher rather than that of nonsupplemented plot. 2. The contents of $NH_4-N$, $P_2O_5$, and $SiO_2$ in the compost were conspicuously increased by the supplement of Zeolite, poultry manure and urea etc, during the stacking period. It was considered that the supplement of Zeolite was much effective on the prevention of the waste of nutrients in the compost because the nutrients content was shown much high along with the progress of decomposition. 3. It was accepted to be the effect of Zeolite on shortening the period of compost decomposition and the prevention of the waste of nutrients content because the C/N ratio of the compost plots to supplement with the mixture of poultry manure, urea and Zeolite were 21.7 - 25.0 at 30 days after stacking but its of non-Zeolite treated plots were 21.3 - 24.8 at 60 days after stacking. 4. The C/N ratio in the compost and decrease rate of compost volume at 90 days after stacking was found to be significantly negative correlation.

볏짚퇴비(堆肥) 제조시(製造時) 염기치환용량(鹽基置渙容量)이 큰 Zeolite를 첨가(添加)하여 퇴적기간중(堆積期間中) 각종양분(各種養分)의 함량(含量) 및 퇴비성상(堆肥性狀)의 변화(變化)를 조사(調査)한 결과(結果)는 다음과 같다. 1. 퇴비(堆肥) 제조시(製造時) Zeolite를 첨가(添加)하여 줌으로써 무첨가(無添加)에 비(比)하여 부숙온도(腐熟溫度)가 현저(顯著)히 높게 유지(維持)되는 경향(傾向)이었다. 2. 퇴적기간중(堆積期間中) $NH_4-N$, $P_2O_5$$SiO_2$ 함량(含量)은 Zeolite, 계분(鷄糞), 요소등(尿素等)의 첨가(添加)로 증가(增加)되었으며 부숙(腐熟)이 진전(進展)됨에 따라 증가폭(增加幅)이 더 큰 것으로 보아 Zeolite의 양분류실효과(養分流失效果)과 있었던 것으로 사료(思料)된다. 3. 계분(鷄糞), 요소등(尿素等)과 함께 Zeolite를 첨가(添加)하였을 때 퇴적후(堆積後) 30일(日)에 C/N율(率)이 21.7~25.0 이었고, Zeolite 무첨가시(無添加時)는 준적후(准積後) 60일(日)에야 C/N율(率)이 21.3~24.8로써 속성퇴비제조(速成堆肥製造)와 양분(養分)의 유실방지(流失防止)를 위(爲)한 Zeolite의 효과(效果)가 인정(認定)되었다. 4. 퇴적후(堆積後) 90일(日)의 C/N율(率)과 용적감소율(容積減少率)과는 부(負)의 유의상관(有意相關)이 인정(認定)되었다.
