Abstract
To enhance groundwater quality and soil nutrient management in fertigated plastic film house, groundwater samples from Jinju 52, Sacheon 3, Changnyeong 3, Sancheong 4 and Namhae 2 sites and soil samples from Jinju 23 sites were collected from September to November in 2004. The average concentration of $NO_3-N$ in groundwater was $12.0mg{\ell}^{-1}$ and 20% of survey sites exceeded the limiting level $(20mg{\ell}^{-1})$ of agricultural goundwater quality. The amount of ions in groundwater was in the order of $Ca^{2+}>Na^+>Mg^{2+}>NH_4-N>K^+$ in cations and ${HCO_3}^->{SO_4}^{2-}>NO_3-N>Cl^-$ in anions. Electrical conductivity of groundwater was positively correlated with $Ca^{2+},\;Cl^-,\;Mg^{2+},\;{SO_4}^{2-},\;NO_3-N\;and\;Na^+$ concentrations. In addition, it had significantly positive correlation with sum cations and anions, respectively $({\Sigma}cations\;(me{\ell}^{-1})$ = EC values $(dS\;m^{-1}){\times}4.65,\;{\Sigma}anions\;(me{\ell}^{-1})$ = EC values $(dS\;m^{-1}){\times}7.63\;and\;{\Sigma}\;(cations+anions,\;me{\ell}^{-1})$ = EC values $(dS\;m^{-1}){\times}11.1)$. The proportions of soil chemical properties over the critical levels for crop production in fertigated plastic film house were 56.5% in pH, 47.8% in OM, 95.7% in available $P_2O_5$, 78.3% in exchangeable K, 87% in exchangeable Ca, 56.5% in exchangeable Mg and 43.5% in EC. Soil pH was positively correlated with pH $(r=0.540^{**})$ and ${HCO_3}^-$ concentration $(r=0.523^{**})$ of groundwater.
