This study was conducted to find out the effect of natural zeolite addition on the purification of livestock farming wastewater and the application of zeolite used for purification of livestock farming wastewater on growth of sudangrass. In a semi-continuous process it was found that COD, $NH_4-N$, $NO_3-N$ and T-N contents in the effluent solution decreased with the treatment of natural zeolite. The zeolite addition was effective on the purification of livestock farming wastewater. By the results of application for sudangrass cultivation, the accumulative N-uptake contents by sudangrass were lower than that of control(35kg/10a) at early growth stage, but were higher at the late growth stage.

In order to investigate the effect of split application of silicate fertilizers on the rice plant, this studies, designed with two kinds of silicate material, wollastonite and high concentrated fused silicate material, and 4 types of application dates on the pot experiment without chemical control against diseases, have conducted the silica analysis of rice plant and diseased rates of plant during the all growing stages. The silica contents in rice plant with basal application were increased most highly compared with the split applications during the all growing stage, but they were all much the same between the basal and split application at the harvest. High concentrated fused silicate material was more useful to increase the silica content in rice plant than wollastonite and effect of split application of silica was dominant with this fused silicate material. The diseased leaf area by rice blast was decreased from the 50% of uncontrolled plot to 20~40% by the split application with wollastonite and to 5~15% with high concentrated fused silicate material. Also percents of deseased panicles were decreased to 20% with wollastonite and to 10% with high concentrated fused silicate material.

Newly manufactured compound fertilizers for chestnut trees developed by Chosun Fertilizer Inc. were tested to evaluate their effectiveness. An experiment was carried out in chestnut farm with 4 years old Eungi Var. from 1981 to 1982. The results obtained are as follows: 1. The growth of chestnut trees was generally good in plots of compound fertilizer contained boron (B C F). 2. The number of ripened strobiles was significantly increased by reducing the ratio of dropped strobiles in plot of B C F. 3. The yield of chestnut by B C F was markedly increased, 6 times more than that of compound fertilizer without boron. 4. Boron content in soil and plant by application of B C F was relatively high, resulting in high production of chestnut. 5. B C F was effective in chestnut orchard to increase nut production markedly.

In order to develop the nutrient material for growing plants, tobacco leaf debris (T.L.D) that is a residual product of cigarette processing was carbonated at about 50% of its weight and neutralized its alkalinity by nitric and phosphoric acid. This material ($T.L.D+3N-HNO_3+1N-H_3PO_4$ (10:1:1), as a consequence, contained 4.1% of nitrogen, 2.1% of phosphte, and 6.6% of potassium in value of about pH 7. It was very effective on seedling growth to apply 1 Kg of nutrient material per 110 1 of bed soil as basic dressing because of containing not only quick-acting nitrate but also slow-releasing organo-nitrogen and sufficient potassium.

To elucidate the effect of the organic carbon compounds included in a separate from glutamic acid fermentation residue (G. A. F. R) on the improvement of the physico-chemical properties of soil, on a soil low in organic matter content, treated with G. A. F. R and compost, observations on the total organic matter, humic acid, fulvic acid, C. E. C. and the development of aggregates were made. From the results of the investigations it was concluded that, the organic carbon compound in the tested G. A. R. F. is more effective than compost in increasing the total organic matter, humic acid, fulvic acid and C. E. C. of soil and in enhancing the development of soil aggregates.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of five newly developed slow-release compound fertilizer varying urea/formaldehyde mole ratios on chinese cabbage against the checked plot of straight fertilizer. The chinese cabbage was obtained the highest yield in the product V which was 1.0 mole ratio of urea/formaldehyde adding with 6.7% urea resin, however, it was lowest in the product VII which the lowest mole ratio of urea/formaldehyde and the highest amount of the resin added. The appropriate product with one basal application for chinese cabbage should be one with 76.1 % of T-N dissolution in water after 24hrs and 71.7 % of T-N dissolution in soil 100 days after treatment. The total nitrogen content of the harvest plant in the product plot was lower compared to the checked plot of N P K and the available soil phosphrous after harvest was higher than that of the checked.

When a football field is constructed using sand medium, the fertilizer management has to be adjusted because of the low nutrient holding capacity and higher leaching rate. The objective of this study was to test the effects of slow release fertilizers on Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) growth in simulated sport field rootzones with PVC pipe pots. Data of turfgrass color, uniformity, growth rate, biomass above ground, and the nitrate content in the leaching solution was collected at different growing stages and during four simulated rain fall periods. The result showed that the nutrient release rate of urea was the highest and that of controlled release nitrogen fertilizer was the lowest. Effects of the controlled release nitrogen fertilizer lasted 14 days more than other lawn fertilizers and 28 days longer than regular urea with acceptable quality levels of turf. The slow release fertilizer also restrained excessive growth of the grass, reduced the times of mowing. Slow release fertilizer used in this study reduced $NO_3$-N leaching by almost 50% at the beginning of turf establishment.

In order to compare the effectiveness of different phosphorus forms (pulverized as regranulized) and formulars (compound fertilizers) of fused phosphate and to compare the effectiveness of boron from different forms (straight borax, granulized with fused phosphate and included in compound fertilizer), a field experiment was conducted on a relatively fertile upland soil using soybean as a test crop. Results are summarized as following. 1. Yield of soybean was significantly higher in the plots fertilized with P when compared to check plot (no p). However, no significant differences were observed among the different forms or formulars of fused phosphate, indicating that the regranulization or formulation of compound fertilizer did not influence the effectiveness of phosphorus. 2. The application of boron, regardless of its formular, brought about higher B content in plant tissue and higher grain yield. There was a tendency that boron contained in ragranulized fused phosphate was more effective than straight borax. The results also indicated that when boron is to be included in NPK compound fertilizer, its content should be at the least 1.5% as $B_2O_3$. 3. The effectiveness of boron appeared as increased number of pod, higher B, and Ca contents in plant and the amounts of uptake of these elements by soybean. 4. The analysis of soil after the experiment indicated that different forms or formulars of fused phosphate were similarly effective in increasing the available P, Ca, and Mg contents in the soil. 5. Slight increase in available B contents in the experimental plot soils applied with boron fertilizer was observed after the trial.

The effect of completed mineral fertilizer on barley was investigated on ordinary upland and newly recrimed soil derived from granite, basalt and shale. 1. Yield of barley grains with application of completed meneral fertilizer 1 level varied from 100.8% to 233.1% on various soils in different parents rock, and 2 levels of the fertilizer varied from 250.1% to 309.5% on ordinary upland and newly recrimed soil derived from granite compared with control plot. But no effect on newly recrimed soil derived from basalt and shale. 2. $P_2O_5$, MgO and B contents in straw were increased, but Mn contents was decreased on all of soil. N contents in straw was decreased on the soil derived from granite, but $K_2O$ contents was increased on the soil derived from basalt and shale. 3. Relation between the yield and absorbed nutrient had related with positive correlection of 1-5%. 4. N and Mn contents in soil were decreased by application of completed mineral fertilizer, but soil pH, C.E.C. $Av-P_2O_5$, Ex-CaO, Ex-MgO and B contents were increased. Especially soil pH and C.E.C. were increased remarkably. 5. Relation between the yield and Ex-CaO and Ex-MgO contents in soil had related with positive correlation, but Mn contents had related with negative correlation.
