Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Ditch‐buried straw return (DB) is an innovative practice combining deep tillage and straw incorporation. This study aimed to evaluate its effects on soil physical quality compared to rotary tillage (RT) and identified key constraints to crop in sandy‐loam and clay‐loam paddy soils within rice–wheat systems. Two field experiments were conducted

Sorption and desorption of glyphosate in Mollisols and Ultisols soils of Argentina [PDF]
Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2017 Abstract In Argentina, glyphosate use has increased exponentially in recent years as a result of the widespread adoption of no-till management combined with genetically modified glyphosate-resistant crops.

Effects of Straw Incorporation and Tillage Depth on Soil Quality in Mollisol Profiles
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Although improvements in soil quality under straw incorporation have been well documented, responses across soil profiles under different tillage depths remain unclear. To address this issue, a field experiment was established in 2011 in Mollisols with conventional tillage (20 cm depth) without straw (CT) and with straw (SCT), no tillage with ...

Soil physical quality of Mollisols quantified by a global index [PDF]
Scientia Agricola, 2015 Indicators synthesizing the state of the structural quality and the function of the porous system are useful for assessing soil production capacity as well as the way it may serve natural ecosystems. This research aimed (i) to determine indicators of the state and function of the porous system, (ii) to use them to derive a global index to characterize ...

Critical bulk density for a Mollisol and a Vertisol using least limiting water range: Effect on early wheat growth [PDF]
, 2013 The least limiting water range (LLWR) integrates crop growth-limiting values based on easily measurable parameters such as soil water content and bulk density (BD) and has been validated as a valuable soil physical quality indicator for a wide range of ...

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Soil organic matter (SOM) is a key indicator of land degradation and soil functioning. It plays an essential role in nutrient cycling, soil structure, and long‐term agroecosystem resilience. The variations of surface cover, soil moisture and soil texture heterogeneity will affect the accuracy of SOM remote sensing mapping. This study developed

Agricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, December 2026.Abstract Soil nitrogen (N) mineralization governs plant‐available N from soil organic matter and microbial turnover, and is typically estimated as potentially mineralizable nitrogen (PMN) via anaerobic incubations or as N0 and mineralization rate (k) via long‐term aerobic incubations.

Tillage Management and Soil Organic Matter, 2005 [PDF]
, 2005 Tillage systems play a significant role in agricultural production throughout Iowa and the Midwest. It has been well documented that increased tillage intensities can reduce soil organic matter in the topsoil due to increased microbial activity and ...

Mung bean yield stability exists across seeding rates
Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.Abstract Mung bean [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek] is gaining attention as a sustainable, high‐protein legume with the potential to diversify cropping systems in temperate regions such as Iowa. However, optimal agronomic management practices, including seeding rate, remain largely unexplored in this region. This study evaluated the effects of seeding rate

Profile Soil Carbon and Nitrogen Dynamics in Typical Chernozem under Long-Term Tillage Use
Land, 2022 For the first time in research literature, this report presents the seasonal changes of total organic carbon (TOC), total nitrogen (TN), and TOC:TN ratio in Chernozem solum (0–100 cm) as effected by 14 years of application of conventional tillage (CTu ...
