Effects of Straw Application on Soil Enzyme Activities and Nitrogen and Potassium Contents in Flue-cured Tobacco

Pot experiments have been carried out to study the effect of external straw application on soil enzyme activities and the nitrogen and potassium contents in tobacco leaves and roots for tobacco variety Qinyan 96. The purpose of this study was to efficiently take advantage of crop waste in order to establish a reasonable resource recycling system and improve the soil environment of tobacco growth. The result shows that external straw addition significantly increased the soil enzyme activity and the nitrogen and potassium contents in tobacco leaves and roots. In a certain range, as the straw usage increased, the soil enzyme activity and the nitrogen and potassium contents in tobacco roots also increased.
