R.  aA nutritional disorder in barley seedlings grown on an alkali Solonetz soil.  c1962  aSurface samples of an Alkali Solonetz and a Solod soil that occur in intimate association in the field were compared in the greenhouse from a productivity standpoint.A nutritional disorder developed in the crops grown on the Alkali Solonetz and the disorder was diagnosed as a nitrogen deficiency. This deficiency was so severe that the Alkali Solonetz soil was incapable of sustaining the growth of barley seedlings. The application of nitrate to the soil allowed for the production of repeated seedling crops at a level comparable with that of the untreated Solod. During 4 weeks' incubation the Alkali Solonetz released only 13?ppm NO3-N as compared with 46?ppm in the Solod.  aCevada  aSolo Alcalino1 aMILNE, R. A.1 aBOWSER, W.
