Abstract:

To improve the seed yield, foliar spraying of potassium fertilizer was studied to explore the effect of potassium-containing organic water-soluble fertilizer on rapeseed growth and yield. Cultivar Wangchengyou 8 was used as material, with 3 spraying periods (seedling, early bloom stage, seedling + early bloom stage) and 5 potassium-containing organic water-soluble fertilizer application rates (0, 375, 750, 1125, 1500 g) treatments. Two-factor randomized block test was designed. Results showed that, after spraying 750 g potassium-containing organic water-soluble fertilizer at rapeseed seedling or early bloom stage, growth and development indexes (including plant height, root neck thickness, and biomass) were significantly increased. And spraying twice at seedling and early bloom stage had a more significant impact on growth and development than spraying at a single period. Spraying 750 g per hectare at both seedling and early blooming increased the number of effective siliques per plant and seeds number per silique. An increase of 39.07% on seed yield and 44.22% on oil production per hectare were also observed compared with control. By spraying 750 g per hectare at seedling and early blooming stages, plant growth, yield, seed oil, and economic benefits could be significantly increased.

Key words: rapeseed (Brassica napus L.), potassium, potassium-containing organic water-soluble fertilizer, yield, economic benefits
