Potential Contribution of Groundnut Residues to Soil N and the Influence of Farmer Management in Western Uganda

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2022
Through symbiotic biological nitrogen fixation (BNF), grain legumes, such as groundnuts, can enhance soil nitrogen (N) and be an important source of N fertility, as well as a critical component of human nutrition and food security. Because legumes obtain

Organic Amendments Alter Long-Term Turnover and Stability of Soil Carbon: Perspectives from a Data-Model Integration

Agronomy, 2021
Organic amendment (OA) additions may profoundly regulate the turnover behaviours of soil organic carbon (SOC). Explicit understanding of such role of OA is crucial for accurately assessing the potential of carbon sequestration in agricultural soils.

Conservation tillage and residue management improve soil health and crop productivity—Evidence from a rice-maize cropping system in Bangladesh

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
The rice-maize (R-M) system is rapidly expanding in Bangladesh due to its greater suitability for diverse soil types and environments. The present conventional method of cultivating puddled transplanted rice and maize is input-intensive, decreases soil ...

Short Response of Spring Wheat to Tillage, Residue Management and Split Nitrogen Application in a Rice-Wheat System

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2014
A field experiment was conducted to study the impact of tillage, crop residue management and nitrogen (N) splitting on spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield over 2 yr (2010-2012) in a rice (Oryza sativa L.)-wheat system in northwestern Pakistan.
