The influence of organic amendments on soil aggregate stability from semiarid sites [PDF]
Restoring the native vegetation is the most effective way to regenerate soil health. Under these conditions, vegetation cover in areas having degraded soils may be better sustained if the soil is amended with an external source of organic matter.

Soil microbial activity as influenced by compaction and straw mulching
Soil microbial activity as influenced by compaction and straw mulchingField study was performed on Haplic Luvisol soil to determine the effects of soil compaction and straw mulching on microbial parameters of soil under soybean. Treatments with different compaction were established on unmulched and mulched with straw soil. The effect of soil compaction

Mulching and soil tillage influence on the thermal behaviour of a Luvisol surfacel layer [PDF]
Important energy exchanges at soil surface regulate the thermal environment within top soil layer and the boundary layer above it. By this reason, the application of mulches or the modelling of micro relief by soil tillage are common practises to modify ...

Effect of weed management strategies on the risk of enteric pathogen transfer into the food chain and lettuce quality [PDF]
The hygienic quality of raw edible vegetables such as lettuce may be influenced by pathogen transfer from soil to plant, which might occur during weed control by hoeing or as splash-effects during rainfall.
