Subsurface drainage reduces the amount and interannual variability of optimum nitrogen fertilizer input to maize cropping systems in southeast Iowa, USA
2022, Field Crops ResearchCitation Excerpt :However, the inversion of values between rotations as compared to Poffenbarger et al. (2017) is due to one very dry year (2017), when the AONR was 62% higher in maize-soybean than continuous maize, as the maize-soybean mean would be 157 kg N ha-1 without it. The 2017 crop year had the greatest water deficit, and the mulching effect of corn residue may have mitigated the negative effect of this on soil organic matter mineralization (Power et al., 1986). Drainage caused large reductions in the AONR and year-to-year variability in the AONR and grain yield.
Priming of soil organic carbon decomposition induced by corn compared to soybean crops
2014, Soil Biology and BiochemistryCitation Excerpt :Nevertheless, several knowledge gaps remain regarding the specific mechanisms that determine changes in h and k as consequence of changes in quantity and composition of residue inputs. It is often assumed that k of CS depends mainly on temperature, humidity, and soil physical properties (Wildung et al.,1975; Bunnell et al., 1977; Kowalenko et al., 1978; Buyanovsky and Wagner, 1986; Power et al., 1986; Hendrix et al., 1988; Gregorich et al., 1998). However, experiments in laboratory conditions challenge this assumption and suggest that k is also affected by the so-called priming effect.
No-till systems on the Chequen Farm in Chile: A success story in bringing practice and science together
2014, International Soil and Water Conservation ResearchCitation Excerpt :The concept of "Conservation Tillage" is oversold for its conservation benefits, and while the concept is good, the actual practice is inadequate because it does not adequately protect the soil resource from erosion and degradation (Crovetto, 1996; Derpsch et al., 2010; Derpsch et al., 2012). Effective residue management helps control soil erosion and has a number of other important carbon management and biodiversity benefits over normal conventional tillage (Power et al., 1986). Emphasis is placed on continuous no-till for better carbon management without intervening soil disturbance.
