Straw alters the soil organic carbon composition and microbial community under different tillage practices in a meadow soil in Northeast China

, 2021
Straw retention and tillage practices are the main ways to affect the contents and stocks of soil organic carbon (SOC) components as well as soil microbial traits in order to affect soil fertility and crop yield.

Tillage impacts on soil aggregation and aggregate-associated carbon and nitrogen after 49 years

, 2021
Intensive tillage systems that feature a moldboard plow (MP) or a chisel-disk (CD) can degrade soil structure. No-till (NT) can improve soil structure and can increase soil carbon (C) but the effect of alternating (AT; 2-yr no-till and 1-yr MP) on soil ...

Effects of different tillage and fertilization management practices on soil organic carbon and aggregates under the rice–wheat rotation system

Soil & Tillage Research, 2021
Studying the impact of tillage and fertilization on soil organic carbon (SOC) content and aggregate is essential to define better strategies for improving soil structure and SOC sequestration.

Effect of conservation tillage on crop yield and soil organic carbon in Northeast China: A meta‐analysis

Soil use and management, 2021
Northeast China, the important grain‐producing region in China, is under threat from soil degradation because of long‐term conventional tillage (CT). The adoption of conservation tillage is anticipated to restore soil fertility, maintain crop yields and ...

No-tillage with mulching improves maize yield in dryland farming through regulating soil temperature, water and nitrate-N

, 2021
Nitrogen (N) losses from cropland soils contribute to a series of ecological problems. No-tillage and mulching are widely regarded as practices that can minimize the disturbance of the agro-ecosystem and regulate the water cycle in dryland farming ...

Does crop rotation affect soil organic matter stratification in tillage systems?

Soil & Tillage Research, 2021
Tillage practices are known to influence soil stratification, but crop rotation can strongly affect fluxes of energy and matter, and thus play a role in determining soil organic matter (SOM) fate.

Tillage (plowing, subsoiling and no-tillage) effect on soil erodibility

1995
The effect of three different soil tillage systems (plow, subsoiling and no-tillage) on soil losses by runoff and “splash”, was determined in situ using a rain simulator. These determinations were carried out in a field experiment under the Project “Soil Tillage in Dry and Irrigated Farming” (EU Program AGRIMED), installed in a Cambisol from granite ...

Influence of tillage on soil aeration

Soil and Tillage Research, 1986
AbstractAir‐ porosity of soil can be altered by tillage. Therefore, it plays a significant role in protecting plants against deficient aeration during critical periods of their life cycle. The effect of five tillage treatments (mouldboard, cultivator, rotary tiller, wedge and zero tillage) and three mulch treatments (paddy straw, rice husk and bare) on

Tillage and straw-returning practices effect on soil dissolved organic matter, aggregate fraction and bacteria community under rice-rice-rapeseed rotation system

, 2020
It is well recognized that soil tillage practice and straw returning treatment redistribute carbon (C) in soil and promote the bacterial biomass and diversity.
