Soil invertebrates in different land use systems: how integrated production systems and seasonality affect soil mesofauna communities. [PDF]
: The soil mesofauna plays a role in organic matter comminution and decomposition, and can be used as bioindicators, since they are sensitive to soil management, vegetation and climate changes.

ABSTRACT In the long term, repeated applications of organic waste products increase soil organic nitrogen (SON) stocks and would therefore be likely to enhance nitrogen supply to crops. We studied soil nitrogen mineralization in the QualiAgro long‐term experiment (northern France), where three urban composts and farmyard manure have been applied ...

Abstract Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) growers who would like to biologically control major soil pests of potato face an increasing challenge. Two pest species have a major impact on yield quality: white grubs (Melolontha sp.; Eschscholtz, 1829) and wireworms (Agriotes sp.; Fabricius, 1775). Farmers who want to grow potatoes in a sustainable fashion to

Quantifying the Contribution of Sediment Load to Soil Detachment Rate by Sediment-Laden Rill Flow
Sediment load changes with downslope distance during rill erosion process, and thus quantifying the potential contribution of sediment load on soil detachment rate is essential to accurately model the rill erosion process.
