The influence of wheat straw mulching and straw length on infiltration, runoff and soil loss

Hydrological Processes, 2022
AbstractStraw mulching is a typical soil and water conservation measure for slope farms, and it plays an important role in preventing soil erosion. The objective of this study was to quantify the effects of the length and coverage of wheat straw on infiltration, runoff and soil loss.

Potato irrigation scheduling and straw mulching

South African Journal of Plant and Soil, 1984
The effect of mulching and irrigation frequency on tuber yield was investigated during three seasons at the Glen Agricultural Research Institute The soil on the experimental site consisted of a loamy sand topsoil and sandy clay subsoil with 94 mm total available water in the top 775 mm of the soil profile.

Okra production with pine straw mulch

Agroforestry Systems, 1994
Conventional planted okra in Booneville, Arkansas and Lorman, Mississippi were mulched with loblolly pine straw (Pinus taeda L.) and longleaf pine straw (P. palustris Mill.), respectively, at a rate of 11 t/ha or left bare. At Booneville, plant stand, season yields (18.6 t/ha), pod weight (16.3 g), plant dry weight (2.3 kg), or stem diameter (3.5 cm ...

Recycling rice straw by composting, incorporating and mulching

Conservation & Recycling, 1984
Abstract Rice straw is rich in nitrogen, potassium, carbon and silicon. It is, however, seldom put to agronomic use by farmers in Sri Lanka, mainly owing to lack of awareness of the quantity of plant nutrients present and lack of simple and inexpensive methods of recycling.

Simulating the radiation distribution within a barley-straw mulch

Agricultural and Forest Meteorology, 2000
Mulching is a technique widely used to moderate soil microclimate. Modelling radiation transfer within mulches is a critical step in the development of comprehensive microclimate models of the soil‐mulch‐atmosphere system and similar hay-drying systems.

The Influence of Straw Mulch on the Soil Reception and Persistence of Metribuzin

Weed Science, 1982
The presence of a straw mulch on the soil surface did not significantly affect the persistence of metribuzin [4-amino-6-tert-butyl-3-(methylthio)-as-triazin-5 (4H)-one] in the soil. The half-life of metribuzin was 5.3 days in 1979 and 12.5 days in 1980 in the field when the time the herbicide was exposed on the soil and straw surface prior to rainfall ...
