Some negative chemical properties of acid soils
Some important chemical properties of various samples of two types of acid soil from Western Serbia (pseudogley and brown forest) are presented in this paper. Mobile Al was found in elevated and toxic quantities (10?30 mg/100 g) in the more acid samples of pseudogley soil.

Effect of tillage and residue retention on maize productivity [PDF]
In Bangladesh, maize is generally sown after extensive tilth and minimum residue retention. Conservation agriculture (CA) systems reduce the input costs, machinery use, CO2 emissions; and improve soil health (Raper et al., 1994).

How wildfires affect soil properties. A brief review
Wildfires may produce several changes in the short- and longterm in the landscape and in the soil system. The magnitude of these changes induced by fire in the components of ecosystems (water, soil, vegetation and fauna) depends on fire properties (fire ...

Comparison of Chemical Soil Properties of Temperate Grassland and Arable Land—A Review
Chemical soil properties contribute to the resilience of soil ecosystems. Healthy soils with optimal nutrient levels, balanced pH and good organic matter content are better able to withstand environmental stresses, such as drought, disease or pests. When
