Effect of palmarosa (Cymbopogon martinii) on improvement of salt affected soils

Symposium no. 33 Paper no. 327 Presentation: poster 327-1 Effect of palmarosa (Cymbopogon martinii) on improvement of salt affected soils SINGH R.P., SINGH R.S., SINGH R.K. and SINGH Ajeet Department of Soil Science Agric. Chemistry, Udai Pratap (Autonomous) College, Varanasi, (U.P.), India Abstract In India about 10 million hectare land have been affected by salinity and alkalinity problems. Reclamation of these problem soils is a costly affair for farmers of India specially for poor farmers of eastern U.P. Our preliminary findings have clearly indicated that aromatic plants like rosa grass and java grass may be successfully grown in salt affected soils. Keeping these facts in mind a systematic study was planned to find out the influence of rosa grass (Palmarosa) on improvement of the salt affected soils of eastern U.P. (India). Accordingly, a field experiment was conducted to study the effect of rosa grass with and without amendments on physicochemical properties of a saline sodic soil (pH 8.8, ECe 7.9 dS m-1 and SAR 35). The experiment was conducted in a randomized block design with four replications. Rooted seedlings of palmarosa (var. Motia) were transplanted with a spacing of 45 cm between rows and 30 cm between plants. Nominal doses of fertilizers were applied at 40 kg N, 20 kg P2O5 and 20 kg K2O ha-1. Four harvests were taken and biomass samples were distilled in Clevenger’s apparatus for estimation of essential oil. Palmarosa without any amendment given normal yield on the salt affected soil and improved physicochemical characteristics of the soil. The crop with pyrites or pyrites plus other amendments like sludge and hyacinth compost had better effect than the crop alone on the improvement of saline sodic soil under study. The pH, ECe, ESP and SAR of the soil decreased whereas hydraulic conductivity increased. Content of organic carbon, available N, P, K, Cu, Zn and Fe increased. Maximum improvement was recorded with palmarosa crop on plots treated with 3
