Secondary succession on an early abandoned field: vegetation composition and production of biomass

Plant Protection Science, 2002
During 1996-2000 the secondary succession on a field left fallow was investigated. The experimental area was divided into a ploughed and an unploughed part.

Weeds and crop yields under conservation tillage in organic farming. [PDF]

, 2010
Conservation tillage in conventional agriculture tends to make the cropping systems more dependent on herbicides. Organic farming principles could solve this problem. However, direct drilling under a cover crop in organic farming remains difficult.

Effects of Tillage Methods and Nitrogen Fertilizer on Soil Properties and Performance of Yellow Oleander in Southern Nigeria [PDF]

, 2016
A study was conducted at the Research Farms of Biofuel Alternate and Renewable Energy Ltd, Edidi, Kwara State, Nigeria. Zero tillage, ploughing once and ploughing + harrowing and three rates of nitrogen fertilizer (0, 30, 60 Kg ha-1 Urea) were evaluated ...

Field Studies on the Influence of High‐Voltage Direct Transmission Underground Cables on Soils Along the SuedLink Route in Southwest Germany

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
During regular operation of the SuedLink at a load ≤75 %, the average increase in temperature in the plowing horizon is expected to be less than 1.6°C in the soils along the route in Southwest Germany. ABSTRACT Background The SuedLink was planned as a high‐voltage direct‐current underground cable route. The construction itself is a massive intervention

Field trials on grain maize cultivation technologies in 2004, 2005 and 2006

Agronomy Science, 2008
The paper presents the results of field studies that assess the influence of various technologies of maize-for-grain cropstand establishment on not only its yield, but also on labour and fuel consumption, and individual cost components. The field studies

Effects of burying and removing dead leaves from the ground on the development of scab epidemics in an apple organic orchard. [PDF]

, 2004
Ascospores produced on scabbed leaves in the leaf litter constitute the primary inoculum causing scab infections in apple orchards during the year.

Sewage Sludge and Cashew Bagasse Biochars Promote Changes in Selected Physical Attributes Related to the Structure of Degraded Dryland Soil

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
This study evaluated biochars from co‐pyrolysis of sewage sludge and cashew residues on physical quality of a degraded loamy sand soil. SPB applied at 20 Mg ha−1 reduced bulk density by 7.74%, whereas most porosity attributes were driven by soil reconsolidation rather than biochar. Aggregate stability varied with biochar type, with SPB promoting larger

Nitrogen turnover and leaching in cropping systems with ryegrass catch crops [PDF]

, 2000
This thesis deals with perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) catch crops and their short- and long-term effects on nitrogen leaching and nitrogen turnover in soils. Results are presented from three field experiments on a sandy soil in south-west Sweden,

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, EarlyView.
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 ...
