Potassium oxide is a physiological acid fertilizer. Long-term application of alkaline fertilizers such as lime should be paid attention to in order to prevent soil acidification, which is most suitable for calcareous and alkaline soil. Potassium chloride can not be applied to saline soil, which will aggravate the salt damage. Potassium chloride contains chlorine, which is related to crop quality. At present, there is no clear conclusion about the effect of chlorine on some cash crops. In general, it should be applied cautiously on chlorine-sensitive crops, such as tobacco, potato, sugarcane, tea and other crops, pay attention to control the amount, it is best to make early application of base fertilizer, combined with irrigation to make chlorine leaching into the deep soil and reduce chlorine damage. Like potassium sulfate, potassium chloride can be used as base fertilizer and topdressing fertilizer, but it is not suitable to be used as seed fertilizer, because chloride ion has inhibitory effect on seeds and seedlings. In addition, the application amount of potash fertilizer should be grasped when the economic benefit is maximum.
