Автор:Prakash Muthu Arjuna Samy Год: 2012 Издание:LAP Lambert Academic Publishing Страниц: 68 ISBN: 9783659297106 Flyash once considered as a waste material is now being utilized in agriculture and industries. Even though flyash is having many applications in agriculture i.e. soil application as fertilizer, carrier material for pesticide formulation, application of flyash as a seed pelleting material was not attempted. Fly ash contains all the elements as that of soil except organic carbon and nitrogen. Approximately on an average 95 to 99 % of fly ash consists of oxides of Si, Al, Fe & Ca and about 0.5 to 3.5 % consists of Na, P, K & S and remained ash with trace elements. Because of these advantages, fly ash can be used as pelleting material, additive & amendment material in agricultural applications. Hence experiments were conducted to study the effect of flyash as seed pelleting material and the results are discussed in this book.
