K+S Group Effect of Potash Fertilization on Yield t/ha 12 10 8 6 4 2 0 Winter wheat – Series of experiments (Germany) Additional yield t/ha 1,5 1978 1981 1984 1987 1990 1993 1996 1999 K 2 O = 0 kg K 2 O = 100 kg Linear (addit. yield, rhs.) 1,0 0,5 0,0 Functional and sustainable potassium fertilization results in: • Mitigation of the effects of negative factors on yield • Increasing additional yields in the course of time • A potash-cost/proceeds ratio of 1:2 (taking into account the current price level) Technical progress, plant protection and progress in cultivation enhance the potential of the plant over time. The exploitation of this potential depends on a balanced supply of nutrients! Series of experiments in Niestetal, Germany, Kassel, average annual precipitation: 647 mm, average annual temperature: 8.7°C: The geological starting material is a soil texture of silty loam. In agricultural practice, this soil has the reputation of supplying all nutrients particularly well, so that even reduced potassium fertilization need not necessarily result in corresponding declines in yield. The soil had a high supply class (E) prior to the start of the experiment. In contrast to nitrogen, the effect of potassium fertilization can only be assessed accurately in the long term. Only long-term field trials also identify the reciprocal effects (e.g. weather conditions) of all location factors. January 2013 K+S Group 79
