Özet

The aim of this study was to investigate plant corn yield with some plant nutrient contents of root and shoot and, soil after the increased applications rates of sewage sludge (0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5% 10%). The increase in contents of N, P, K and Ca of the experimental soil was statistically significant while it was insignificant for Mg by the effect of increased sewage sludge application. The applications resulted in significant increases for the total fresh and dry weight of plant corn compared to the control. It was found that sewage sludge applications affected significantly for the plant nutrient contents of N, P, K, Ca, and Mg. On the other hand, the increased application of sewage sludge resulted in statistically significant changes of plant shoot contents of N, P, K, Ca, and Mg. The shoots contents of N, P, Ca and Mg significantly increased unlinearly compared to the control application while the increases were linear for the shoot N and P contents. As a result of this study carried out with fresh sewage sludge taken from biological processing foundation for the housing originated sewage sludge in the iskenderun county of Hatay province, fresh and dry yield decreased by the increased sewage sludge applications of 7.5% (AC7.5) and 5% (AC5) respectively, even though there were somehow positive effects in terms of plant nutrients in general. This suggests that the applications in sequence during the growing seasons under uncontrolled conditions may cause to the problems in plants and soil in time.
