The Effect of Soil Management on Pore Size Distribution and Water Infiltration

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2022
Water infiltration into soil varies significantly with soil type and management practices. Management practices alter soil physical properties, such as porosity and pore size distribution, which play an important role in infiltration.

Lime Rate in Clayey Soils Influences Chemical Fertility and Sugarcane Yield

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Liming contributes to the alleviation of acidity in highly weathered soils. For sugarcane, the use of green harvest methods and new soil tillage systems requires an adjustment of lime application rates. In the present study, the effects of different lime

Weed Control Using Conventional Tillage, Reduced Tillage, No-Tillage, and Cover Crops in Organic Soybean [PDF]

open access: yesAgriculture, 2017
Soybean field experiments were performed to investigate the weed-suppressing effects of different tillage systems and cover crop mulches at two locations in southwest Germany during 2014 and 2015. The influence of three different tillage systems on weed control efficacy, soybean plant density, and crop yield was determined.

Impact of No-Tillage and Conventional Tillage Systems on Soil Microbial Communities [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Soil Science, 2012
Soil management practices influence soil physical and chemical characteristics and bring about changes in the soil microbial community structure and function. In this study, the effects of long-term conventional and no-tillage practices on microbial community structure, enzyme activities, and selected physicochemical properties were determined in a ...
