- The Flemish physician/plant physiologist Jan Baptista van Helmont was the first to publish his claim that the growth of plants (like willow trees) requires nutrition from which environmental source? water (a hydrogen-containing source which we now designate as H2O) sucrose (a carbon-containing source which we now designate as C12H22O11) ammonia (a nitrogen-containing source which we now designate as NH3) glucose (an oxygen-containing source which we now designate as C6H12O6) methane (a carbon-containing source which we now designate as CH4)Draw the NPK economy by showing how these nutrients are being added and lost in the soil system (Just a simple illustration-Boxes and Arrows with labels/descriptions - is enough to illustrate the soil nutrient economy) Each of the soil nutrient, N-P-K, should have a separate hand-drawings. Thus, there will be three (3) drawings.Fertile soil is one of the keys to good yield. (i) Explain the roles of clay and organic matter in contributing to soil fertility and cation exchange capacity (CEC). (ii) Name ONE (1) negative effect of low CEC and high CEC soils respectively. Suggest ways to improve low CEC and high CEC soils. (iii) Suggest ONE (1) suitable type of crops for high CEC soil, low CEC soil and loam soil respectively.
