The objective of this study was to suppress potato common scab by lowering the soil pH and increasing the concentration of water-soluble aluminum (Al) in soil with a single application of ammonium sulfate into each row. Superphosphate (P) and potassium sulfate (K) were applied to the surface soil horizon and ammonium sulfate (N) was applied only into the rows along which potato plants were to be planted. By this application method, the soil pH was lowered and the concentration of water-soluble Al was increased in the soil of the rows where potato tubers were grown. Potato common scab was suppressed in the soil containing water-soluble Al in concentrations of 0.2 to 0.3 mg L^<-1> or higher. The pH of the soil fertilized as indicated above remained lower than that of the control soil to which the mixture of N, P, and K was uniformly applied. In soil types such as Haplic Andosols containing allophane at high concentrations of 71 g kg^<-1> in Memanbetsu, the suppression of potato common scabby this single application of ammonium sulfate was less effective due to the low soluble Al concentration. In other soil types, the soil pH was easily controlled and common scab was suppressed by this method. The advantages of this method are that (a) it minimizes the use of fertilizers, thus reducing the adverse effects of unnecessary fertilizers on the soil; and (b) it lowers the cost by eliminating additional agricultural chemicals and extra fertilizers.
