Abstract:
      The status of nutrients of four irrigation desert soils at Zhangye, Wuwei, Jinchang and Minqin, in Gansu Province were studied using pot culture experiments. The results show that there are lacking N and Cu in soil of Jiugongli from Zhangye. Compared to OPT treatment, the crop biomass declined 45. 81% and 17. 44%. The limiting nutrient factors are N, P, S and Cu in soil from Wu-wei; and limiting nutrient factors are N, P, Cu, Fe and Zn in soil from Minqin. The soil collected from Xiaojinzi farm-land is short of P, N, Mn and Zn. There are short of N and P in the soils at Hexi region at largely. The minim nutrients are lack in some irrigation desert soils in Hexi region, Gansu.
