Theupper critical level of a potentially toxic element is its minimum concentration in actively growing tissues of a plant at which yield is reduced.

SUMMARY Toxic trace metals may percolate to the ground water from sewage sludge disposed onto land. Analyses are presented of the soil solution from a slightly acid loamy soil treated 7 years earlier with single applications of digested sewage sludge

This study compares the efficiency of pot trials in the glasshouse or outdoors, and trials on undisturbed soil cores (100 cm deep; 15 cm wide), at simulating field trials. Yields of spring barley (Hordeum vulgare, cv Julia) were measured at sites on

Summary The best procedure for mapping the soils of an area, and the effort this will require, depend upon the intricacy of its soil pattern. This paper presents one way of describing such intricacy-by a graph of variance against area sampled-and an

Tissue concentrations of young plants, or of young leaves, of crop plants or species used as test plants offer some promise as simple and approximate indicators of toxic levels of elemental pollution of the soil environment.

The choice of agricultural land use or management can be based entirely on a soil map or on results of soil analysis or on a combination of the two. This paper presents the kind of comparison that should form the basis for choosing among these altern

SUMMARY Most soil properties vary down a soil profile. In nearly every case a graph of the value of the property against depth (the ‘true’ curve) is smooth. However, a soil sample is usually taken from the whole of a horizon so that its analysis

SummaryThe reliability of the soil series as a basis for crop yield prediction was examined by comparing the influence of soil and management (inter-farmer differences) on the variance of barley grain yield. Yields of barley were measured from farmer

Dried digested sewage sludge (cake) was mixed, in varied proportions, with three contrasting soils and cropped intermittently to ryegrass or young barley over a period of 710 days. Results are presented for periods 1–4, 13–16 and 22–23 months a

SUMMARY As part of a study on the use of young barley plants to monitor accumulations of toxic elements arising from sludge or waste disposal, we have examined the interactions between Cu, Ni and Zn in young barley. We find that Cu has little effect
