In 1984, research plots were establishedto test the effects of annual applications of different rates of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) fertilizers on the fertilityof a salt-affected soil (Typic Ustochrept) at the Quzhou Experimental Station, Quzhou County, Hebei Province, China.In October 2001, composite soil samples (0-20 and 20-40 cm) were collected from each plot and analyzed for soil fertilityindices. Seventeen years of N and P fertilizer applications increased the soil organic matter (SOM) in the surface layer.With combined N, 270 (N1) and 540 (N2) kg N ha-1 year-1, and P, 67.5 (P1) and 135 (P2) kg P2O5 ha-1 year-1,fertilizer applications, total soil N mostly significantly decreased (P < 0.05). Soil total P in the 0-20 cm layer of theP2 treatment significantly (P < 0.05) increased as compared to those of the other treatments. Rapidly available P (RP)in the 0-20 cm layer of the N1P2 treatment was significantly higher than those in the other treatments except the P2treatment; and RP in the 0-20 cm layer of the P2 treatment significantly increased as compared to those of the othertreatments except the P1 and N1P2 treatments. RP in the subsurface soil layer (20-40 cm) of the P2 treatment (4.2 mg Pkg-1) was significantly (P < 0.05) higher than those in the other treatments.
