The close interactions between soil, water, plants and humans are very important for human health and well-being. This is a call for the submission of original manuscripts on this nexus that uses photographs to communicate how the nexus functions and its importance to humanity. This approach is based on a more photos, less words paradigm to create narrative photographic studies. More studies are needed that focus on different aspects of the soil-water-plant-human (SWPH) nexus. Any combination of the components of the SWPH nexus that includes the human component (e.g., soil-water-human, soil-plant-human, etc.) is welcome as part of this special section. The ultimate goal of these articles is to add to knowledge of the SWPH nexus in a way that incorporates art and culture into our scientific understanding of some of today’s major global challenges.

FIELD experiment was conducted at Kafr El- Sheikh Governorate, North Nile Delta area, Egypt during the two successive growing seasons 2020 and 2021 to assess the effect of different levels from molasses and foliar application of Ca (NO 3 ) 2 on some soil properties and yield of rice . Spilt- plot design was used, which the main plots were assigned to four treatments of molasses (i.e., M1: without molasses, M2:140 L ha -1 , M3: 280 L ha -1 , M4:420 L ha -1 ), while foliar application of Ca(NO 3 ) 2 treatments were assign to sub main plots (i.e., Ca1: foliar as tab water, Ca2: 0.5 g l -1 and Ca3: 1 g l -1 ). Results revealed that after the two growing seasons, increasing molasse application up to 420 L ha -1 led to a decrease in soil bulk density. Soil porosity had a different trajectory than bulk density, recording its greatest values during the same prior treatment. With an increase in molasses up to 420 L ha -1 , available concentrations of N, P, and K in soil as well as dehydrogenase, urease and total count of bacteria were greatly enhanced, with M4 and Ca3 recording the greatest levels. The interaction effect of the molasses treatment and foliar application of Ca(NO 3 ) 2 led to a highly significant increase in the chlorophyll content, 1000-grain weight, grain, straw yield, and total N-uptake. According to the trial, farmers could gain from using molasses and foliar application of Ca(NO 3 ) 2 because it boosts rice harvest while enhancing soil physical, microbiology and its fertility.
本研究于2020年和2021年连续两个生长季在埃及北尼罗河三角洲地区的Kafr El- Sheikh省进行了田间试验,以评估不同水平的糖蜜和叶面施用Ca (no3) 2对水稻部分土壤性质和产量的影响。采用分块设计,主要地块分配4个糖蜜处理(M1:无糖蜜,M2:140 L ha -1, M3: 280 L ha -1, M4:420 L ha -1),而叶片施用Ca(no3) 2处理分配给次主要地块(Ca1:叶片作为tab水,Ca2: 0.5 g L -1和Ca3: 1 g L -1)。结果表明,两个生长季后,增加糖蜜施用量至420 L ha -1,土壤容重下降。土壤孔隙度与容重的变化轨迹不同,在相同的处理过程中,土壤孔隙度达到最大值。当糖蜜用量增加到420 L ha -1时,土壤中N、P、K有效浓度以及脱氢酶、脲酶和细菌总数均显著增加,其中M4和Ca3水平最高。糖蜜处理与叶面施用Ca(no3) 2的交互作用导致叶绿素含量、千粒重、籽粒产量、秸秆产量和总氮吸收量极显著增加。根据该试验,农民可以从使用糖蜜和叶面施用Ca(no3) 2中获益,因为它可以提高水稻收成,同时提高土壤的物理、微生物和肥力。

ourteen soil profiles were collected to represent an area about 40 feddans of farm, Sohag University to evaluate land capability and crop suitability of soils. Morphological, physical, chemical, fertility characteristics of examined soils were recognized using standard methods of soil testing. All soil attributes were input in different models of suitability and capability evaluation. The salient findings of this study revealed that, the study area was near to optimal (G1) and good capable (G2) except few sites were very poor (G4). Soil suitability evaluation was done for Wheat, Maize, Alfalfa and Poato crops using parametric and MicroLEIS (ALMAGRA) models. The area under investigation has been generally divided into highly to marginally suitable (S1 and S2 in parametric method and S3 in MicroLEIS-ALMAGRA model) for cultivating these crops except few sites were not suitable (S5 in MicroLEIS model) for this purpose. Soil limitations were observed in the study area such as low organic matter, coarse soil texture, alkalinity, and salinity. Storie index and parametric methods were strongly recommended to be used for land capability and suitability assessment in the investigated area, respectively. These findings are useful for decision makers to be used in better planning and management of agricultural lands.

GRICULTURE is very important for humanity as it supplies human needs ranging from food to fiber, feed for animals and energy. The production of seedlings is of great agricultural importance, especially in horticultural nurseries. Producing vigorous and healthy seedlings like banana and strawberry using biological nanofertilizers (bionanofertilizers) is presented in this mini-review. Due to their properties, bionanofertilizers have received increasing interest in agriculture, particularly during transplanting or the production of seedlings. Many studied seedlings attributes, such as the plants’ antioxidants systems, nutritional status, and quality parameters of seedlings have been improved through the use of bionanofertilizers. The most important impacts of bionanofertilizers may include enhancing production of seedlings or plants under biotic and abiotic stresses through the improvement of attributes like physiological, biochemical, and molecular characteristics. This diagrammatic mini-review will focus on biological nanofertilizers and their potential uses in horticultural crop production.

t is well known that grafting, as a special plant propagation technique, is forming new plant by joining the scion (an aerial part of a plant) to a rootstock (another root part of a plant). This new plant (grafted plant) is employed to improve plant production, by getting greater plant development, vigour, and defence against abiotic/biotic stresses, as well as improving the uptake of nutrients, and their use efficiency. The grafted vegetable crops are common to overcome many plant diseases like Fusarium wilt. The most well-known grafted vegetables include both solanaceous and cucurbitaceous seedlings mainly in Europe, Asia, and North America. How can improve the efficiency of grafting process? Can the applied nanoparticles improve the quality of fruits and their nutrient content in grafted vegetables? This is a call by the Environment, Biodiversity and Soil Security (EBSS) for submitting new manuscripts for more investigations concerning the role of nanoparticles like nanofertilizers in enhancing the productivity of grafted vegetables mainly under different stresses.

griculture is the backbone of any nation, which supplies with the needed foods, feeds, fiber and fuel. The crucial sector has become more flexible and advanced due to the enormous progress in the bioinformatics, which penetrates all fields in our life. Smart agriculture is an important page in the history of global agriculture, which already used several advanced technologies during different agricultural practices starting from the pre-cultivation, cultivation, seedling, fertilization, weed detection, irrigation, spraying pesticides, till harvesting and also pot-harvest. Many sectors have been involved in smart farming like smart irrigation, and all precision farming practices for improving and management of the agriculture especially in the developing countries, which need more supporting from their governments even at the private sector and the small farms level. This short communication is a call for submitting articles on smart farming and its applications in different agricultural practices including irrigation, fertilization, and etc. Due to smart agriculture mainly depends on the bioinformatics, this technology has several open questions particularly their applications, models, and security, which need further investigations.
