Spatial Distribution of Available Trace Metals in Four Typical Mediterranean Soils: The Caia Irrigation Perimeter Case Study

Agronomy, 2021
There is a small sample of edaphic geochemistry studies over large geographic areas, especially studies that consider major reference soil groups (RSG) that evaluate both native concentrations of elements and anthropogenically contaminated soils in ...

Agronomic and Grain Quality Traits of Different Chickpea Cultivars Grown in Southern Germany

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT In Germany, chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is so far considered as a “new” crop. Introducing “new” crops in new growing regions can face many challenges. One of the major challenges is selecting appropriate cultivars. This study aimed to provide clear, region‐specific recommendations for suitable chickpea cultivars to support future agronomic ...

Miscanthus Leaf Drop Timing Impacts Autumn and Winter Soil Decomposition Rates

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 9, September 2026.
Genotypic variation in Miscanthus leaf senescence was simulated in different leaf drop profiles combined with standardized buried litter bags to estimate impacts on soil decomposition. Litter drop occurring over shorter periods resulted in lower soil decomposition; concentrated winter leaf drop is preferred due to longer‐term soil organic carbon ...

Soils of the Dinaric karst in Slovenia: properties, pedogenesis and land use

Acta Geographica Slovenica
The study evaluates the physical and chemical properties of soils developed on limestones and dolomites in the Dinaric karst of Slovenia. Statistical analysis of 257 soil profiles was performed to compare the properties of different soil types and to ...

Actual evapotranspiration from partially tile-drained fields as influenced by soil properties, terrain and crop

Soil and Water Research, 2011
Physical properties of soils have a significant influence on their water regime and should be considered when selecting suitable agricultural crops for particular sites, taking into account the crop productivity and its water requirements.

Effects of deficit irrigation and biostimulants on melon productivity and quality in semi‐arid conditions

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 11, Page 6348-6364, 30 August 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Water scarcity and soil salinization are major constraints to irrigated agriculture in semi‐arid regions, affecting crop productivity and fruit quality. Combining deficit irrigation with biostimulant application has emerged as a promising strategy to improve water use efficiency and plant stress tolerance.

A Multiple Soil Threats Assessment for Europe by 2050

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 9937-9952, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT European soils are exposed to multiple interacting soil threats (STs), challenging the European Commission's objective of restoring healthy soils by 2050. This study provides the first integrated EU‐scale projection of four major soil threats—soil compaction, soil organic carbon loss, soil erosion and soil sealing—under two IPCC climate ...

Changes in the Composition of Soil Organic Matter after the Transformation of Natural Beech Stands into Spruce Monoculture

Soil Systems
The composition of soil organic matter is considered to have a key influence on C sequestration and global climate change and can be associated with changes in vegetation cover in the terrestrial ecosystem.
