Abstract: A compound fertilizer was coated with an alginategrafted absorbant and a fertilizer loss control agent. Alginategrafted fertilizers A and B were prepared and used for investigation of their waterretaining, losscontrolling and growthpromoting effects. Results indicated that the rate of soil water retention was 89.00% and 70.33% when the soil was treated with alginategrafted fertilizers A and B, respectively, while the corresponding value for compound fertilizer was 61.17%. The results from leaching experiments indicated that, in comparison to compound fertilizer, losses of nitrogen, phosphate and potassium from alginategrafted fertilizers A and B were decreased by 22.49% and 21.22%, 14.71% and 12.22%, and 15.51% and 13.13%, respectively. Applications of alginategrafted fertilizers A and B respectively increased the fresh weight of lettuce by 26.14% and 20.06% in comparison to compound fertilizer. In addition, the alginategrafted fertilizers also showed an obvious promoting effect on root growth of maize. The above results suggest that alginategrafted fertilizers possess stronger abilities to retain water and fertilizer, and to promote plant growth than compound fertilizer, and can be widely used in agriculture production.
Key words: hydrological process, significance level, jump, hydrological variability, environmental change.
