Improvement of Soil Physical Properties of Cambisol Using Soil Amendment [PDF]
Managing dryland requires intergrated knowledges on soil, water and plants relationship in order to achieve maximum yield. Using local and unused resource is important not only in aspect of reducing pollution but low price and also affordable for farmers. Thus, using amendment from in situ resources is suggested by many experts.

Biological activity of old-age cuttings cambisols in Western Caucasus
The peculiarities of ecological state and biological activity of soils in old-growth logging areas (500–700 m above sea level) in the West Caucasus in comparison with the soils of background forests in the Caucasus Biosphere Reserve were revealed. Vegetation of the control forest is represented by beech-fir-tree-tiered dead-grass forest, in cuttings ...

Effects of Biochar and Maize Roots on CO2 Emissions and Microbial Biomass C in Loess Soils
ABSTRACT Background Refractory substances such as biochar and labile substances such as dead fine and coarse roots play important roles in soil organic matter dynamics and have key ecological functions. However, interactions between these substances have only rarely been studied.

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.

Role of Nanoclays in Carbon stabilization in Andisols and Cambisols [PDF]
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and their consequent effect on global warming are an issue of global environmental concern. Increased carbon (C) stabilization and sequestration in soil organic matter (SOM) is one of the ways to mitigate these emissions.
