Organic Matter Quality and Microbial Activity in Soils Managed With Brachiaria Succession

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Although succession systems and brachiaria improve soil quality, gaps remain in microbial community dynamics, activity, and soil organic matter stocks. Methods The objective was to evaluate the carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) stocks of soil organic matter fractions and their distribution, molecular characterization, enzyme activity ...

Effects of Crop Rotation and Hydrogel Application on Soil Biological Properties and Wheat Biomass Production in Drylands

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and aim Conservation agriculture (CA) is rapidly gaining traction to promote sustainable crop production, focusing on minimum soil disturbance, permanent soil cover, and strategic crop rotation. Moreover, hydrogel is increasingly being used to improve water retention, including in combination with CA, particularly in water limited ...

Small‐Scale Topographic Variability Shapes Molecular Diversity of Organic Matter in Coastal Dune Soils

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
Topography shapes ecosystem controls, driving microclimate, hydrology, and vegetation, which, in turn, influence topsoil traits and DOM composition in coastal dune soils. Distinct molecular patterns emerge across north‐facing and south‐facing slopes and dune valleys.

Soil Type Controls the Effects of the Nitrification Inhibitor DMPP on Nitrate Leaching and Mineral N Retention Under Simulated Heavy Rainfall

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Nitrate (NO3−) leaching is a major nitrogen (N) loss pathway in agriculture and may increase with more frequent heavy rainfall. Nitrification inhibitors, such as 3,4‐dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP), can reduce these losses, but their effectiveness under frequent heavy rainfall events remains unclear, which limits their targeted ...

Plant Availability of Phosphorus From Sewage Sludge Ash‐Based Fertilizers and Its Relationship to Phosphorus Extractability

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sewage sludge ash (SSA) is a potential phosphorus (P) source for fertilizers, but untreated SSA (USSA) often shows low plant availability of P. To increase P availability, sodium additives can be applied before sewage sludge incineration or during thermochemical SSA posttreatment, as this leads to the formation of CaNaPO4.
