Effect of Straw Mulch on Heat Balace
Journal of Agricultural Meteorology, 1969 Efficts of straw mulch on heat balance items are studied by comparing micrometeorological data of an unmuched plot to those of a mulched plot of 3kg per 3.3m2. The heat storage in the straw was negligible and the mulching caused a higher value of albedo and a greater upward flux of sensible heat than the unmulched plot.

Soil evaporation under different straw mulch fractions
African Journal of Agricultural Research, 2014 This study was conducted at the Agronomic Institute of Parana (IAPAR), Londrina, Parana state (latitude 23° 18' S, longitude 51° 09' W, average elevation of 585 m). Londrina's climate in Koppen's classification is Cfa type, that is, humid subtropical climate with rain in all seasons and droughts in winter.

The potential of barley straw as an algal and cyanobacterial growth control [PDF]
, 2009 Algal and cyanobacterial1 blooms are increasingly becoming a problem to water utilities in the UK and around the world. Conditions such as increasing eutrophication and poor management of water bodies are consequently leading to increases in the number ...

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT New agricultural operating entities (NAOEs) are the organizational core of modern agricultural systems, yet whether and how they draw smallholders into green production remains empirically unsettled. Using survey data from 803 vegetable growers in Shandong Province, China, and combining the coefficient of variation method, propensity score ...

Evaluation of Different Mulching Methods and Its Impact on Soil Microbiota
Journal of Pure and Applied MicrobiologyConventional agricultural practices rely on the usage of synthetic herbicides to control weed proliferation in the absence of mulching, potentially leading to soil dysbiosis.
