Soil C and N dynamics and hydrological processes in a maize-wheat rotation field subjected to different tillage and straw management practices. [PDF]
Agric Ecosyst Environ, 2019 The impact of farmland nutrient losses on environment security is of serious concern. Conservation tillage led to reduced water and soil losses and increased grain yield, and is therefore one potential solution, but this approach requires an ...

Rice Straw Management Practices in Rupandehi District, Nepal
Journal of the Institute of Agriculture and Animal Science, 2023 Rice straw management has been a serious issue after the increasing use of combine harvesters to harvest rice in southern plains of Nepal since these machines cut rice 15-20 cm above the ground and leaves huge amount of residues in the field. A face-to-face semi-structured questionnaire survey was carried out in 60 households of straw burning, and 60 ...

Effects of Straw-Return Method for the Maize–Rice Rotation System on Soil Properties and Crop Yields
Agronomy, 2020 Exploring suitable maize straw-return measures is essential for the new double-cropping system of maize (Zea mays L.)−rice (Oryza sativa L.) rotation in the middle reaches of Yangtze River in China, which can increase crop yield by improving soil ...

Effect of straw incorporation on methane emission in rice paddy: conversion factor and smart straw management [PDF]
Applied Biological Chemistry, 2019 AbstractStraw incorporation is strongly recommended in rice paddy to improve soil quality and mitigate atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), via increasing soil organic carbon (SOC) stock. However, straw application significantly increased methane (CH4) emission during rice cultivation, and then its incorporation area was not expanded effectively.

Effect of different straw management practices on yields of continuous spring barely
Plant, Soil and Environment, 2002 Field experiments were conducted in the maize-growing region on heavy gleic fluvisol from 1974 to 2000. Three variants of straw management (straw harvested, incorporated into soil and burned), two variants of soil tillage (conventional plough tillage to ...
