How manure amendment counters no-tillage yield reduction in winter wheat: enhanced nitrogen components and soil enzyme activity [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionNo-tillage (NT) effectively reduces soil erosion, enhances water retention, and promotes carbon sequestration, yet it often leads to yield reduction. The application of manure can mitigate the yield decline caused by NT.
