Effect of soil amendments on fire affected soil - a pilot scale pot experiment
Original language description
A locality situated in the protected landscape area in Pálava which suffered from a recent intentionally set fire was monitored during a period of 6 months. Pot experiment investigating possibility of soil amendment application to burnt soil was performed with Brassica juncea L. The long-term monitoring revealed that the burnt area got revegetated rapidly but with undesirable noxious plant species that endanger local flora biodiversity. Soil amendments used in the pot experiment were not found beneficial for above-ground biomass growth and the plant best prospered in the unamended burnt soil. On the other hand, diatomite and biochar demonstrated a potential of improving soil conditions and so enhanced the root growth. Root mass yield in these two treatments, with diatomite and biochar, were higher than in the unamended burnt soil. The research suggests keeping monitoring the natural recovery of the fire affected area to gain information about the locality ability to cope with the aggressive plant species and further, recommends to carry out chemical analysis of soil, biomass and roots which will complement findings about the fire effects on soil.
