This study was carried out in Soil. Sci. Dept. Faculty of Agriculture,
Menoufia University, Egypt during years of 2016 and 2017 on two salt affected soils of ElHamoul
area, Kafr El-Sheikh Governotate, North Nile, Delta, Egypt. This was to study the
effect of added compost with different rates and incubation period on the chemical
properties of these soils. The applied compost rates were O, 1, 2 and 3%. The incubation
periods were 0, 3 and 6 months at the room temperature. The studied soil properties
were pH, EC, the content of soluble cations (Na+, Ca2+, Mg2+ and K+), soluble anions (Cl-,
co32-, HC03- and SO42-).
The results indicated that, the increasing rates of added compost as well as incubation
periods resulted in a decrease in soil pH, soluble Na+ and Ct. Whereas, these led to an
increase in EC. In general, compost application improved the chemical properties of the
studied salt affected soil
