| Abstract | The aim of the present study was to determine long-term K release rates from soil by use of a modified resin method, where vigorous agitation and soil–resin separations were avoided to minimise the dissolution of the soil minerals. Resins saturated with Ca$^{2+}$ or H$^{+}$ were tested; Ca$^{2+}$ because it is the most dominating cation on the soil exchange complex, and H$^{+}$ because it is an important K$^{+}$ counter-ion released from plant roots. The tested soil: resin systems included two rates of agitation; no agitation, and gentle agitation where the soil particles visually did not move relative to each other. The resin beds were kept physically separated from the soil particles by use of a specially designed extraction tube. Three soils of the same mineralogical and textural origin, but exposed to different K input levels during more than 80 years, were used. A pot experiment with ryegrass was carried out using the same three soils. Vigorous shaking of the resin–soil systems was not needed to obtain a sufficiently high and rapid K release to the resin; even without agitation long-term K release rates could be determined. The accumulated K release was in all combinations of agitation rate, resin saturation ion and soil K status proportional to the square root of extraction time after 1000 h of extraction, indicating diffusion controlled K release from the minerals. Resin extractable K was closely correlated with ryegrass K uptake, indicating similarity in the extraction process. In contrast, K extracted with ammonium acetate or nitric acid did not provide information about the ability of the soils to release K in the long term. Based on the criteria :(i) substantial K adsorption under slow K release conditions; and (ii) achievement of a stable long-term K release within a limited extraction period, the Ca-saturated resins with gentle agitation and H-saturated resins without agitation are concluded to be best suited for routine laboratory work. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
