Abstract
The aim of this study was to estimate changes in the content of selenium and titanium in soil and eastern galega under the influence of growing potassium fertilization and the sampling of the analyzed elements together with the yield of the test plant. A three-year field experiment was conducted on experimental plots belonging to the University of Natural Sciences and Humanities in Siedlce. The study included the following six fertilization objects: control treatment (0); P1; K1; P1K2; P1K3; P1K4 (P1 – 23, K1 – 83, K2 – 124, K3 – 166, K4 – 207.5 kg.ha-1). In each year of the study a test plant was collected three times in the budding stage. After harvesting galega soil samples were collected. Varied potassium fertilization had a significant impact on changes in the content of selenium and titanium in the soil and eastern galega. Most selenium in the soil was determined with the control object, and titanium in the soil fertilized with a dose of potassium 83 kg.ha-1. The use of potassium doses (K3–K4 166–207.5 kg.ha-1) resulted in a significant increase of selenium content in the test plant in relation to the dose of 83 kg.ha-1 (K1). The use of the potassium salt at a dose of K2 (124 kg.ha-1) resulted in a significant reduction in the titanium content in the test plant in comparison to K1 fertilization K1 (83 kg.ha-1). Eastern galega harvested at successive dates and subsequent years of study contained smaller amounts of selenium and titanium. The content of selenium and titanium in the dry mass of the test plant was below the range limit numbers defining the permissible quantities of elements in the feed. Eastern galega fertilized with the dose of phosphorus 23 kg.ha-1 and potassium 166 kg.ha-1 absorbed the largest amounts of selenium and titanium with the yield.
