Abstract:

In order to improve the soil quality of tea plantation, reduce the safety risk of tea and improve the quality of tea, the effects of different passivators on soil and tea quality in tea plantation were explored. Biochar, calcium, magnesium and phosphate fertilizers, bentonite and lime were used as test materials for a one-year field experiment. The four kinds of passivators can improve the soil, improve the quality of tea, and reduce the harm of heavy metal cadmium. Compared with CK, the pH value, organic matter and available potassium content of biochar treatment, as well as the total phosphorus and total potassium content in tea were significantly increased. Lime treatment has the highest content of alkali hydrolyzable nitrogen and available phosphorus. Calcium, magnesium and phosphorus fertilizers had the highest content of caffeine. The contents of total nitrogen, tea polyphenols, free amino acids and water extracts were the highest, and the phenol-ammonia ratio was the lowest. Compared with CK, the available cadmium contents of biochar, calcium-magnesium-phosphate fertilizer, bentonite and lime treatments decreased by 69.74%, 66.62%, 72.99% and 61.95%, respectively. The application of bentonite had the most obvious effect on the improvement of tea quality. The application of biochar was the most beneficial to the improvement of pH value and soil nutrients, and the treatment effect of heavy metal cadmium in tea plantation was the best.
