Effects of plastic mulch film residues on soil-microbe-plant systems under different soil pH conditions.

Chemosphere, 2020
Plastic mulch film residues (PMFR) accumulated throughout mulching years can result in serious environmental problems, especially in hotter areas with frequent farming (e.g. the tropics). The effects of long-term mulching on the soil-microbe-plant system,

Mapping Soil pH

Soil Science Society of America Journal, 2005
The theoretical profitability of variable rate (VR) lime management has driven adoption of intensive soil sampling strategies used with complex statistical techniques without demonstration of approach efficacy. Our objective was to compare the accuracy of spatially continuous pH and lime requirement (LR) maps derived from ...

Trade-off between soil pH, bulk density and other soil physical properties under global no-tillage agriculture

, 2020
No-tillage (NT), here defined as NT with/without residue retention, has been widely used as a sustainable alternative to conventional tillage (CT). In particular, site-specific effects of NT on the soil pH, and soil physical properties including bulk ...

Multiple long-term observations reveal a strategy for soil pH-dependent fertilization and fungal communities in support of agricultural production

, 2020
Agricultural fertilization plays a crucial role in crop production, and the fungal communities catalyze transformation of soil nutrients in support of crop production. However, it remains controversial about the optimal strategy for fertilizer inputs and

Adopting a Robotic pH Instrument for Soil and Soil-Buffer pH Measurements in a Soil Test Laboratory

Communications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis, 2011
Optimum software settings were evaluated to minimize time of analysis without sacrificing data quality on an AS-3010D LabFit robotic instrument. There was little to no difference between soil and soil-buffer pH values measured via manual methods and LabFit analysis with four software settings. A setting for routine laboratory analysis was determined by

pH Tests on Soils

Proceedings of the Prehistoric Society, 1987
pH tests were carried out on eight soil samples taken from the site at the time of excavation. These were prepared and processed according to Black 1965, 922-923. Locations of the samples and the results showing the soils to be acidic are given below. All the samples were taken from the medium brown sandy loam (fig. 4).

Interrelations between soil pH measurements in various electrolytes and soil solution pH in acidic soils

Australian Journal of Soil Research, 1991
Ninety soil samples (81 surface, 9 subsurface) were collected from eastern Queensland and soil pH (1:5 soi1:solution) was measured in each of deionized water (pH,), 0.01 M CaCl2, 0-002 M CaCl2 and 1 M KCl. Soil solution was extracted from each soil after incubation for 4 days at the 10 kPa matric suction moisture content, and pH (pHss) and electrical ...

Soil fungistasis with respect to pH and profile

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1969
Soil fungistatic activity was determined in different soils using the sterile cellophane–agar diffusion method. Comparing 35 soil samples from eight profiles, the inhibitory effect on Trichoderma koningi was found to increase with increasing soil pH irrespective of the depth at which the soil samples were taken.The fungistatic principle of seven soils

Soil pH and Soil Acidity

SSSA Book Series, 1996
Soil pH is probably the single most informative measurement that can be made to determine soil characteristics. At a single glance, pH tells much more about a soil than merely indicating whether it is acidic or basic.
