Rice Paddies Reduce Subsequent Yields of Wheat Due to Physical and Chemical Soil Constraints

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Yields of wheat crops that succeed rice paddy crops are generally low. To date, it has been unclear whether such low yields were due to rice paddies altering soil physical or mineral characteristics, or both.

Effect of tillage and residue retention on maize productivity [PDF]

, 2011
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).

Microbes: Affect physical properties of soil

California Agriculture, 1965
These studies indicate that some of the microbial polysaccharides are relatively resistant to decomposition by soil organisms and, therefore, may well be contributing influences to the favorable effects of organic residues on soil physical properties.

Long-term Effects of Tillage on the Retention and Transport of Soil Water [PDF]

, 1986
Quantitative measurements were made of the physical and chemical properties of two virgin prairie soils, Crowley and Jay, that remain in their native Arkansas environments and of similar soils that had been tilled extensively.

Prediction of soil available phosphorus based on soil organic carbon [PDF]

, 2008
There are many cases in which it is desirable to determine relationships among some soil physical and chemical properties. In soil studies, soil available phosphorous (AP) are often determined using laboratory tests, but it may be more suitable and ...
