Effects of soil improvement technology on soil quality in solar greenhouse
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2018Currently, cucumber cultivation is mainly through monoculture, as continuous culture leads to the decrease of crop yield and soil quality. In order to improve soil quality to achieve continuous monocultures, soil physicochemical properties, microbial biomass, content of phenolic compounds, and the size of bacterial, fungal, ammonia-oxidizing bacteria ...

Rate of loss of insecticides during soil solarization and soil biosolarization
Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2011This paper reports the use of solarization and biosolarization to decontaminate a soil polluted with six insecticides (buprofezin, pirimicarb, pirimiphos methyl, pyridaben, pyriproxyfen and tebufenpyrad). In the experiment, 17-L pots filled with clay-loam soil were placed in a greenhouse during the summer season and then contaminated with the ...

Applied Soil Ecology, 2019
Abstract Soil solarization is an environmentally friendly physical control method used in plant protection practices. Temperature, which is the primary factor in soil solarization, can be easily adjusted with a variety of devices that can maintain constant temperature in laboratory studies. However, the temperature changes every minute and day during

The border effect of soil solarization
Crop Protection, 1995Abstract A gradient of reduced effectiveness of solarization toward the edge of the plastic mulch is known as a ‘border effect’, corresponding with decreasing soil temperatures from the middle toward the edge of the mulched area. The cyst nematode Heterodera avenae , of wheat was completely controlled by solarization at 90 cm or more inward from the

Solarization and biosolarization enhance fungicide dissipation in the soil
Chemosphere, 2010Although there is some evidence regarding the effect of solarization and biosolarization on pesticide degradation, information is still scarce. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of these disinfection techniques on the degradation of eight fungicides (azoxystrobin, kresoxin methyl, tebuconazole, hexaconazole, triadimenol, cyprodinil ...

Solar Heating (Solarization) of Soil for Control of Soilborne Pests
Annual Review of Phytopathology, 1981Soilborne pathogens cause heavy losses to most agricultural crops. Re peated plantings of a crop in the same plot of land, which is usual with valuable and successful crops, sooner or later results in a high inoculum buildup, forcing the farmer to change either the crop or the land.

Influence of soil moisture content on soil solarization efficiency
Renewable Energy, 2001Abstract Soil temperature under plastic cover is a function of incoming radiation and thermal characteristics of the mulching material and the soil. A field experiment was conducted at Fudhiliyah Agrometeorological research station to investigate how soil temperature is influenced by different soil moisture content regimes during soil solarization ...

EFFECTS OF INNOVATIVE FILMS IN SOIL SOLARIZATION FOR THE CONTROL OF SOIL-BORNE PATHOGENS
Acta Horticulturae, 2003The effectiveness of soil solarization during autumn was evaluated in Sicily (36°48’N, 14°36’E) in a multi-span tunnel greenhouse through the survival of two soil-borne pathogens Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici (FORL) and Cylindrocladium pauciramosum.

Soil solarization with biodegradable materials and its impact on soil microbial communities
Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2008Abstract The application of soil solarization (SS), one of the most promising techniques for the control of soilborne pathogens, is seriously limited by the drawback regarding the disposal of the used plastic materials. A possible solution to this problem is the use of biodegradable plastics.

Solar heating of the soil and evaporation from a soil surface
Géotechnique, 2009In 1994 a system for classifying landfills for municipal solid waste by local climate was introduced in South Africa. If it can be shown that potential evaporation from the landfill surface will exceed average annual rainfall, it is accepted that no significant leachate will be generated in the landfill, and a leachate collection system, impervious ...
