Abstract: Zinc lignosulfonate (Zn-LS) is a kind of organic fertilizers made from the by-products of paper industry.With leach and plot treatments,this paper studied the difference of the biological availability between Zn-LS and an inorganic Zn-fertilizer on calcareous soil of north Guangdong Province.The results indicated that the Zn of Zn-LS was less absorbed by calcareous soil.In soil B,when applying 10 mg穔g-1 Zn,the dissolved amount of Zn-LS was 65.2% higher than that of inorganic Zn-fertilizer,corn grew well,and its biomass was higher.In soil A,when applying 10 mg穔g-1 Zn of Zn-LS,the biomass of corn increased by 16.3%,and its Zn content was 81.2% higher.Therefore,biological availability of Zn-LS was better than that of inorganic Zn fertilizer.

Key words: Zinc lignosulfonate, Inorganic Zn fertilizer, Corn
