ABSTRACT Subtropical soils can have medium to high soil organic matter levels, which directly affects cation exchange capacity (CEC) and potassium (K) availability to plants. This generates the need to define K buffer capacity (KBC) values and K corrective rates to improve the fertilization recommendation system for these soils, ensuring high yields and reducing the likelihood of K losses in the environment. This study aimed to define KBC values and the K rates to be applied in corrective fertilization of […]
