Abstract

Saffron (Crocus sativus L. ) is a subtropical plant which is cultivated in Iran so far and its yield is strongly dependent on soil chemical properties. Zeolites are one of the substances which are used to improve soil characteristics and soil correction capability as well. To evaluate the effects of these minerals in some soil chemical properties (Na, K, Ca, Mg, Cl, SO4, HCO3, pH and EC) under saffron cultivation, a study was conducted at completely randomized design with seven treatments at the Agricultural Research Station, University of Birjand during 2012. Factors which examined in this study included type of Zeolites: calcic zeolite (ZCa), potasic zeolite (ZK) and z-mix zeolite (ZS) in three levels: zero (Z0), 2 (M2) and 6 (M6) as weight% with 9 replications. These treatments were mixed with soil and were placed in pots with diameter 30 cm and height 35 cm. Soil sampling was done in depth of 10-20 cm at the end of crop season. Also, soil sampling was performed at two other depth layers (0-10 and 20-30 cm) for determination of soil EC. The results showed that the effect of zeolite was significant on bicarbonate concentration in soil solution (P≤ 0. 05). Interaction effect between type and amount of zeolite was significant on Ca, Mg, Cl, HCO3, SO4 concentrations in soil solution and pH as well (P≤ 0. 05) and it affected on Na and total cations (P≤ 0. 01), but the amount of Zeolite has no affect. Mean comparisons showed that application of ZK on both levels was affected on sodium and bicarbonate of soil solution. The application of ZCa caused significant change in Soil salinity (ECe) and this factor reduced 3. 1 to 3. 9 times compared to control. Regarding to the results, it is recommended to use calcic zeolite in lower soil depth and potasic zeolite in soil surface. It is beneficial to reduce the solute transport toward the soil surface and reduction of ECe in corm root zone.
