Abstract Land use changes and soil management can potentially alter quality. A study was conducted to assess the long‐term (>20 years) effects of perennial trees (PT), vegetable crops (VC), rice–wheat (RW) system, sewage‐irrigated fields (SF), maize–wheat (MW) system uncultivated soils (US) on Soil physical quality parameters were significantly affected only in SF when compared with US soil, particularly for bulk density (BD 1·51 Mg m −3 vs. 1·34 US). Among chemical parameters, electrical...
Abstract The effect of fertilization on resistance and resilience soil microbial activity against heat stress in the tropical soils is largely unknown. We investigated impact long‐term (36 years) application chemical fertilizers farmyard manure ( FYM ) substrate‐induced respiration SIR dehydrogenase DHA their a sandy clay loam (Typic Haplustept). Surface from five selected treatments (Control, N, NP , NPK + under maize Zea mays crop were assessed immediately after sampling (0 Day) at 1, 14,...
Wheat (WBC) and rice straw biochars (RBC) prepared at 400 600 °C their deashed counterparts were characterized for physico-chemical properties using CHN analysis, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), 13C-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), diffraction (XRD) Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) techniques. Pyrazosulfuron-ethyl sorption data on normal could be well fitted to the Freundlich model. The characteristics of adsorption capacities...
Application of biochar to soil has increased considerably during recent years because its effectiveness as a amendment causing beneficial effects on health. However, the have been reported vary and depend upon types feedstock pyrolysis conditions production. Therefore, characterization is extremely important for efficient utilization amendment. In present study, was prepared from agro-industrial by-products (rice husk sugarcane bagasse) weeds (Parthenium Lantana) under similar conditions....
A greenhouse experiment was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of diammonium phosphate (DAP), single superphosphate (SSP) and two growing cycles on arsenic removal by Chinese Brake Fern (Pteris vittata L.) from an contaminated Typic Haplustept Indian state West Bengal. After harvest Pteris total, Olsen's extractable other five soil fractions were determined. The total biomass yield P. ranged 10.7 16.2 g pot(-1) in first cycle 7.53 11.57 second cycle. frond concentrations 990 1374 mg...
Soil acidity is one of the main limitations for optimal use land resources better crop production. And, long-term fertilization experiments found to be helpful in increasing nutrient supply these acidic soils. Keeping this view, a field experiment on rice was carried out by applying biofertilizers and enriched compost an Inceptisol Assam over 10 successive years (2006–15) examine its effects availability soil enzymatic activity. This had five treatments viz. absolute control (T1), 100%...
Abstract In recent years biochar (BC) has gained importance for its huge carbon (C) sequestration potential and positive effects on various soil functions. However, there is a paucity of information the long-term impact BC priming effect nutrient availability in with different properties. This study investigates prepared from rice husk (RBC4, RBC6), sugarcane bagasse (SBC4, SBC6) mustard stalk (MBC4, MBC6) at 400 600 °C C nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K) an Alfisol, Inceptisol,...
