Unlocking Soil Organic Carbon Potential in Sustainable Agriculture

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil organic carbon (SOC) is central to soil health, crop productivity, and agroecosystem resilience because of its influence on soil physical, chemical, and biological properties and processes. However, increasing SOC does not uniformly improve crop productivity, as SOC responses to management are often slow and the resulting agronomic ...

Farmyard manure applications stimulate soil carbon and nitrogen cycling by boosting microbial biomass rather than changing its community composition

, 2020
Land application of farmyard manure (FYM) is a widespread agronomic practice used to enhance soil fertility, but its long-term effects on soil microbial carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycling have not been investigated in detail.

Effect of boron on yield and physiological properties in rape (Brassica campestris)

The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2014
The results of the present investigation show that the physiological properties as well as yield of rape (Brassica campestris L.) have been found to be affected by integrated applications of B and well rotten farmyard manure.

EFFECT OF FARMYARD MANURE, BIO AND MINERAL NITROGEN FERTILIZER AND HILL SPACES ON RICE CROP PRODUCTIVITY. [PDF]

Journal of Plant Production, 2002
Two field experiments were conducted in EI-Serw Agricultural Research Station, Damiatta Governorate during 2000 and 2001 seasons to study the effect of farmyard manure rates (0 and 20 m3/fad), hill spaces (20 x 15, 20 x 20 and 20 x 25 ern) and four ...

Time‑dependent release of some plant nutrients from different organic amendments in a laboratory study

International Journal of Recycling of Organic Waste in Agriculture
Purpose Soil fertility management requires a precise assessment of nutrient release from organic amendments to decide the rates and frequency of application. Method Time-dependent release of some macro- and micro-nutrients from farmyard manure, mushroom

EFFECTS OF GREEN MANURING, FARMYARD MANURE, AND STRAW ON THE ORGANIC MATTER OF SOIL AND OF GREEN MANURING ON AVAILABLE NITROGEN

Journal of Soil Science, 1970
Summary In an experiment on green manuring started at Woburn in 1936, farmyard manure (FYM) was applied in alternate years until 1954 and straw similarly from then until 1963. Various green manures were grown from 1936 to 1953. From 1954 to 1963 ryegrass and trefoil were grown either each year or in alternate years; in 1964 and 1965 ...

Selecting Promising Soil Quality Indicators for Monitoring Soil Management Effects Based on 10 European Long‐Term Field Experiments

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 189, Issue 4, Page 499-517, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background: Soil quality can be measured through soil quality indicators that reflect soil processes. Aim: The aim of this study was to (1) identify a limited set of soil quality indicators that are most sensitive to agricultural soil management and that are widely applicable regardless of pedo‐climatic conditions, and (2) link common ...

Nematode Community Profiling in Organic and Conventional Spinach Systems

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Agricultural management practices play a significant role in shaping soil biological communities and ecosystem processes. Soil nematodes are valuable biological indicators of soil health because they occupy different trophic levels and are sensitive to alterations in environmental conditions.
