Characteristics of Fertility on Strawberry Cultivated Soil of Plastic Film House in Chungnam Province in Korea

To reduce the dose of fertilizers is very important to sustainable production of many horticultural crops, including strawberry. In order to practice the environment friendly agriculture of strawberry cultivation in plastic film house, soil chemical properties of 435 soil samples (232 for loam, 83 for sandy loam, and 120 for silt loam) in Chungnam Province from2008 to 2009 were determined. The average of pH, EC, OM, Av. $P_2O_5$, Ex. $K^+$, Ex. $Ca^{2+}$, Ex. $Mg^{2+}$, and Ex. $Na^+$ was 6.5, 2.28 dS $m^{-1}$, 26 g $kg^{-1}$, 910 mg $kg^{-1}$, 1.09 $cmol_c\;kg^{-1}$, 8.3 $cmol_c\;kg^{-1}$, 2.5 $cmol_c\;kg^{-1}$, and 0.58 $cmol_c\;kg^{-1}$, respectively. The content of Av. $P_2O_5$ in sandy loam soil was significantly higher than silt loam soil, whereas other properties showed no difference between soil texture. The kinds of strawberry cultivars showed no difference in soil chemical properties. The frequency distribution within optimum range of soil chemical properties was 30.6%, 35.4%, 37.0%, 5.3%, 8.5%, 8.5%, and 17.9% for pH, EC, OM, Av. $P_2O_5$, Ex. $K^+$, Ex. $Ca^{2+}$, and Ex. $Mg^{2+}$, respectively. Especially, excessive portion of Av. $P_2O_5$, and Ex. $Ca^{2+}$ were high 86.9%, and 86.0%, respectively. EC values of soil samples were significantly positive correlatoin with all chemical properties except soil pH. In principle component analysis of chemical properties in soil samples, the percentage of variance explained by PC 1 was 38.8%, while PC 2 explained 17.8%of the variance, for a cumulative total of 56.6%. These results were able to distinguish between soil textures and strawberry cultivars. Also, these results considered that understanding of soil chemical properties under using principal component analysis be able to improve amounts of fertilizers for sustainable agriculture in plastic film house.

충남지역 시설 딸기재배 토양 비옥도 특성

시설 딸기의 지속적인 생산을 위해서는 적정시비가 매우 중요하다. 시설 딸기 특화작목 재배지 토양진단을 통한 친환경농업 실현을 위해 2008년부터 2009년 까지 충남지역 435개소 농가의 토양 화학성을 조사하였다. 시설 재배지의 평균 화학성은 pH 6.5, EC 2.28 dS $m^{-1}$, 유기물 함량 26 g $kg^{-1}$, 유효인산 함량 910 mg $kg^{-1}$, 교환성 $K^+$ 1.09, $Ca^{2+}$ 8.3, $Mg^{2+}$ 2.5 및$Na^{+}$ 0.58 $cmol_c\;kg^{-1}$을 나타냈다. 유효인산 함량은 사양토가 양토와 미사질양토 보다 통계적으로 유의성이 있게 높은 반면, 그 외의 토양 화학성은 토성간 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 품종이 달라짐에 따른 토양 화학성 차이는 통계적으로 인정되지 않았다. 토양 화학성분의 적정수준 비율은 pH 30.6%, EC 35.4%, 유기물 37.0%, 유효인산 5.3%, 교환성 $K^+$ 8.5%, $Ca^{2+}$ 8.5% 및 $Mg^{2+}$ 17.9%를 나타냈다. 유효인산과 교환성 $Ca^{2+}$ 함량의 초과비율은 각각 86.9%와 86.0%로 양분 불균형이 심각한 것으로 나타났다. 토양 EC 값은 pH를 제외한 유기물, 유효인산, 교환성 $K^+$, $Ca^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$ 및 $Na^{+}$과 고도의 정의상관을 보였다. 화학성분의 주성분 분석결과 PC 1은 38.8%, PC 2는 17.8%를 보여 합계 56.6%로서 토성과 품종별 차이를 간단하게 구별할 수 있었다.
