Tipe Koloid Tanah Ability of various colloids to fix K varies (2:1) 2. Pembasahan & Pengeringan Tanah Physically affects the structure of colloids 3. Pembekuan & Pencairan Tanah Physically affects the structure of colloids 4. Kemasaman tanah (pH) High pH increases the fixation of K because of less H+ and Al3+ at exchange sites.

SUMBER: http://www.cropnutrition.com/efu-potassium#in-soil Kalium Tanah K dalam larutan tanah mudah diserap oleh akar tanaman. K-larutan tanah ini jumlahnya sangat kecil. Uji K untuk larutan tanah tidak mencerminkan total K yang tersedia bagi tanaman. SUMBER: http://www.smart-fertilizer.com/articles/potassium-in-soil Kalium Tanah Faktor penyerapan K oleh tanaman: 1. Kandungan Oksigen Tanah – oxygen is necessary for proper root function, including uptake of potassium 2. Air tanah - the more moisture found in the soil, the easier it is for plants to absorb potassium. 3. Olah-tanah – research has shown that regularly tilled soil allows for better potassium uptake. 4. Suhu Tanah – 60-80 degrees Fahrenheit is the ideal soil temperature range for root activity and most of the physiological processes in plants. The lower the temperature, the slower absorption becomes.
