Method for Predicting Potassium Uptake by Grain Sorghum
1968
Hipp, Billy W. | Thomas, Grant W.
A greenhouse experiment using nutrient solution culture with graded levels of K was used to determine the concentration of K required in grain sorghum leaves for optimum growth. It was determined that growth of grain sorghum is reduced if the leaf K concentration is much below 1.5% at the full bloom stage. A field study was made to relate soil K parameters from eight different soils to concentration of K in grain sorghum leaves at the full bloom stage of growth. The best method of predicting K uptake by plants included both solution K and exchangeable K. A correlation coefficient of 0.890 was obtained between percent K in leaves and solution K + log (1 + exchangeable K).
