CHANGE IN NUTRIENTS BY MULCHING WITH ORGANIC SUBSTANCES

Конференции, 2021
В орошаемых почвах технология применение различных мульчоматериалы, особенно органические вещества является актуальными вопросами. Для выявление влиянием органических веществ нами были залажены полевые опыты на орошаемых сероземно – луговых почвах Мирзачульского оазиса. В статье указаны изменение питательных элементов под влиянием органических веществ.

Organic Mulching on Carrot Yield and Quality

International Journal of Vegetable Science, 2008
Mulching can affect temperature in the first 20- to 30-cm depth in soils. The objectives of this study were to characterize the possibility of using organic based mulches to modify carrot (Daucus carota L.), cv. Forto Royal, plant growth and determine effects on yield and quality. Mulch treatments included rice (Oriza sativa L.) hulls, sawdust (Populus

Comparison of Analytical Methods for Organic Matter in Composts and Organic Mulches

Communications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis, 2005
Abstract The conventional dichromate (Walkley and Black), carbon analyzer, and weight loss‐on‐ignition (WLOI) methods are compared for determination of organic matter contents in composts and organic mulches. The objective of this study was to evaluate these three methods for their reliability in determining the organic matter contents of composts and ...

NO-TILL VEGETABLE PRODUCTION USING ORGANIC MULCHES

Acta Horticulturae, 2004
Conventional tillage practices and the use of polyethylene mulch has led to the loss of soil organic matter and increasing problems of erosion, water logging and soil compaction. A no-till system using permanent beds, permanent sub-surface irrigation and organic mulches grown in-situ, based on that developed by Abdul–Baki & Teasdale (1993) has been ...

Organic Mulches in the Vegetable Cultivation (A Review)

2014
Soil mulching is very important practice in field production. Different mulching materials can be use for different agricultural and horticultural species in different climatic environments. The main role of organic mulches is to protect the soil surface from the influence on unfavorable factors and to improve the growing conditions for the crop plants.

EFFECT OF ORGANIC MULCH APPLICATION ON THE YIELD OF POTATO SEED CROP

Acta Horticulturae, 1997
A two-year experiment (1994-1995) to evaluate the effect of organic mulch application on the yield height and structure of potato seed crop (Solarium tuberosum L. cv. Desireé: elite origin Holland) was conducted at Kucay mountain, on the red-brown acidic soil at Permian Sendstone.

Influence of organic mulches and different thickness of mulch layer on soil properties

2008
Mulching has become increasingly common during recent decades not only in commercial horticulture. Mulching is especially important in organic farming. An organic mulch on the surface of the soil usually intercepts solar radiation, reduces soil temperature, maintains soil moisture at higher levels than bare soil, reduces losses of nitrate, sulfate ...

The effect of organic mulches on the amount of organic carbon in the soil

2012
Natural organic mulch eventually breaks down and adds organic material back into the soil. The field experiment on organic mulches was carried out in the Pomological Garden of Aleksandras Stulginskis University (previously - Lithuanian University of Agriculture) (54°53rN, 23°50'E). The soil type - Calc(ar)i-Endohypogleyic Luvisol.

Sprayable starch films as mulching for organic agriculture

Organic Agriculture
In accordance with the sustainable agricultural concepts, the pursuit of eco-conscious solutions has driven research into the development of biodegradable materials for mulching applications as a response to environmental challenges. In this study, biodegradable sprayable films were produced from thermally gelatinized cassava starch suspensions (5% w/v)

Soil Temperature and Soil Freezing as Affected by an Organic Mulch

Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1963
Abstract Temperatures and the occurrence of freezing and thawing of mulched and bare soil at 1‐, 4‐, and 10‐inch depths were recorded during a 5‐year period. A silt loam of fair drainage with a slight southern slope near Lafayette, Indiana was selected.
