Organic Amendments: Enhancing Plant Tolerance to Salinity and Metal Stress for Improved Agricultural Productivity

Stresses
Salinity and metal stress are significant abiotic factors that negatively influence plant growth and development. These factors lead to diminished agricultural yields on a global scale.

The integrated effect of salinity, organic amendments, phosphorus fertilizers, and deficit irrigation on soil properties, phosphorus fractionation and wheat productivity

Scientific Reports, 2020
Soil degradation due to global warming, water scarcity and diminishing natural resources negatively impacts food security. Soil fertility deterioration, particularly phosphorus (P) deficiency, remains a challenge in the arid and semi-arid regions.

Nitrogen mineralization from organic amendments is variable but predictable.

Journal of Environmental Quality, 2020
To manage nitrogen (N) efficiently, organic growers must be able to predict the amount and timing of plant-available N from organic amendments. In this study, we measured N mineralization from a variety of organic amendments, including composted animal ...

Influence of Organic Amendments on Adsorption, Desorption and Leaching of Methiopyrisulfuron in Soils

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2013
Methiopyrisulfuron is a novel sulfonylurea herbicide with good activity for annual broadleaf and gramineal weeds control. Present study was to investigate the effects of organic amendments (including peat (PE), sewage sludge (SS), and humic acid (HA)) on

Carbon to nitrogen ratio and quantity of organic amendment interactively affect crop growth and soil mineral N retention

Crop and Environment, 2022
Using organic amendments to improve arable soils in the long term is a careful balancing act of applying amendments with the right carbon to nitrogen ratio (C:N ratio) at adequate quantity to avoid nitrogen (N) leaching while promoting or retaining crop ...

Soil CO2 emission in response to organic amendments, temperature, and rainfall

Scientific Reports, 2020
Vegetated land surfaces play an important role in determining the fate of carbon in the global carbon cycle. However, our understanding of the terrestrial biosphere on a global scale is subject to considerable uncertainty, especially concerning the ...

Improving the Chemical Properties of Acid Sulphate Soils from the Casamance River Basin

Land, 2023
The anoxic conditions produced after the reflooding of acid sulphate soil (ASS) can reduce sulphate and/or Fe(III) with a consequent rise in pH. This study aimed to compare the effect of different amendments on ASS remediation and to analyse the effect ...
