Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is a complicated soluble organic composite in soils that is known to be linked to carbon turnover, nutrient cycling, and climate change. However, uncertainties exist about the potential influence of soil Fe and Mn oxides on DOM characteristics in paddy soil profiles following the application of inorganic and organic fertilizers. We investigated the DOM characteristics in a paddy soil profile (0–40 cm) treated with inorganic and organic fertilizers and the relationships between DOM and Fe and Mn oxides. The paddy soils were subjected to four fertilizer treatments: a control with no fertilizer (CK), inorganic fertilizer only (NPK), 50 % chemical N substituted with organic fertilizer (NPKM), and 100 % chemical N substituted with organic fertilizer (M). Ultravioletvisible (UVVis) spectroscopy and fluorescence excitation-emission matrix (EEM) spectrophotometry were integrated to explore the vertical variation in the DOM. There were no significant differences in the DOM content between the surface soil (0–20 cm) and the subsurface soil (20–40 cm) under the CK, NPK, and NPKM treatments. However, the DOM content significantly increased with soil depth under the M treatment. The application of organic fertilizer resulted in a significant reduction in the aromaticity and hydrophobic components of the DOM, as well as the fluorescence intensity of the humic-like and protein-like components with increasing soil depth; the content of easily reducible Fe significantly increased, whereas the total Mn and reducible Mn contents significantly decreased with increasing soil depth. The addition of organic fertilizer increased the vertical variation in the DOM characteristics of the paddy soil profiles. The consistency and correlation analysis of the DOM and Fe and Mn oxide contents in the profile indicated that Fe and Mn oxides might be the main influencing factors of DOM vertical heterogeneity, which was mediated by the weakening of mineral protection and the increase in the degree of mineral dissimilar reduction with increasing soil depth.
溶解有机质(DOM)是土壤中一种复杂的可溶性有机化合物,与碳周转、养分循环和气候变化有关。然而,施用无机和有机肥后,土壤Fe和Mn氧化物对水稻土DOM特性的潜在影响存在不确定性。研究了无机和有机肥处理水稻土(0 ~ 40 cm) DOM的特征,以及DOM与Fe、Mn氧化物的关系。采用紫外可见光谱(UVVis)和荧光激发发射矩阵(EEM)分光光度法对水稻土进行了4种施肥处理,分别为不施肥对照(CK)、只施肥无机肥(NPK)、50% %化学氮取代有机肥(NPKM)和100% %化学氮取代有机肥(M)。CK、NPK和NPKM处理下表层土壤(0 ~ 20 cm)和地下土壤(20 ~ 40 cm) DOM含量差异不显著。而在M处理下,DOM含量随土层深度的增加而显著增加。随着土壤深度的增加,施用有机肥导致DOM的芳香性和疏水性组分以及腐殖质和蛋白质样组分的荧光强度显著降低;随着土层深度的增加,易还原性铁含量显著增加,总锰和可还原性锰含量显著降低。有机肥的添加增加了水稻土剖面DOM特征的垂直变化。DOM与剖面中Fe、Mn氧化物含量的一致性和相关性分析表明,Fe、Mn氧化物可能是DOM垂直非均质性的主要影响因素,其机制是随着土壤深度的增加,矿物保护作用减弱,矿物异位还原程度增加。

Huang-Huai-Hai region of China is characterized by saline soils with high Na+ concentrations, which result from seawater intrusion and groundwater evaporation. The high mobility of Na⁺ complicates soil amendment and limits crop yields by osmotic imbalances. To address high Na+ challenge, we conducted a two-year field experiment in the saline soil of the Huang-Huai-Hai region, designing no conditioner (C0) as the control and three types of conditioners (2.10 × 103 kg ha−1): 100 % silica-calcium-potassium-magnesium alkaline soil conditioner (SCPM), 70 % SCPM + 30 % zeolite (SCPM + ZP), and 99 % SCPM + 1 % polyacrylamide (SCPM + PAM) to explore possible ways to reduce Na⁺. SCPM + ZP reduced Compared to C0, SCPM + ZP reduced Na⁺ by 748.92–834.79 mg kg−1 through Ca²⁺ substitution and physical zeolite adsorption, lowered pH by 0.24–0.60, and alleviated salt stress. Modifications to soil colloids increased binding sites for metal ions and organic carbon, which improved soil aggregation (34.78 % increase in > 0.25 mm aggregates), reduced bulk density (15.20 %), boosted porosity (19.51 %), and raised moisture content (42.39 %). These changes were accompanied by elevated enzyme activities (e.g., alkaline phosphatase, sucrase) and greater availability of nutrients like phosphorus and organic carbon in the root-soil system. Ultimately, a 96.12 % increase in spike number led to an 84.42 % rise in winter wheat yield. The combined reduction of Na+, enhancement of soil properties, and yield improvement achieved with SCPM + ZP offers a practical and theoretical framework for reclaiming high-Na+ saline soils in Huang-Huai-Hai region.
黄淮海地区Na+浓度高,是海水入侵和地下水蒸发共同作用的结果。Na⁺的高迁移率使土壤修复变得复杂,并通过渗透不平衡限制了作物产量。解决高Na +挑战,我们进行了一项为期两年的田间试验在黄淮海地区的盐渍土,设计没有护发素(C0)作为控制和三种类型的护发素(2.10 ×103公斤 公顷−1):100 % silica-calcium-potassium-magnesium碱性土壤改良剂(SCPM), 70 % SCPM + 30 %沸石(SCPM + ZP),和99年 % SCPM + 1 %聚丙烯酰胺(SCPM + PAM)减少Na⁺探索可能的方法。SCPM + ZP降低与C0相比,SCPM + ZP通过Ca 2 +取代和沸石物理吸附使Na +降低748.92-834.79 mg kg−1,pH降低0.24-0.60,减轻盐胁迫。土壤胶体的修饰增加了金属离子和有机碳的结合位点,提高了土壤团聚性(34.78 %;0.25 mm骨料),降低了容重(15.20 %),提高了孔隙率(19.51 %),提高了含水量(42.39 %)。这些变化伴随着酶活性的升高(如碱性磷酸酶、蔗糖酶)和根-土壤系统中磷和有机碳等营养物质的更多可用性。最终,穗数增加96.12 %导致冬小麦产量增加84.42 %。SCPM + ZP联合降低Na+、提高土壤性质、提高产量,为黄淮海地区高Na+盐碱地复垦提供了实践和理论框架。

The hexamminecobalt trichloride ([Co(NH3)6]Cl3) method extracts exchangeable (exch.) base cations needing 60 min. For soils containing calcium carbonate, a calcite saturated [Co(NH3)6]Cl3 solution is used to determine the exch. Ca. The preparing time of calcite saturated [Co(NH3)6]Cl3 solution requires to set overnight. This study evaluated the equivalence of [Co(NH3)6]Cl3 method using stirring modification. The proposed modification can vastly save time and the whole extraction time can be shortened to 3–5 min. The preparing calcite saturated [Co(NH3)6]Cl3 solution procedure can be omitted when measured soils containing calcium carbonate. For acidic soil, the measured CEC was below the certified range, the exch. Ca, Na and K were all in the certified value range; the exch. Mg above the certified range. For neural soil, the measured CEC, exch. Ca, Mg, Na and K were all in the certified range. For alkaline soil, the measured CEC was above the certified range, the exch. Ca, Mg, Na and K were all in the certified range. For saline soil, the measured CEC was above the certified range, the exch. Mg and K below the certified range; accurate exch. Ca and Na could not be achieved even in such a short extraction time because of the dissolution of gypsum and sodium salts. For sodic soil, the measured CEC was above the certified range, the exch. Mg and K below the certified range; the extracted Ca can be assumed the exch. Ca; the exch. Na can be calculated as CEC-(exch. Ca + exch. Mg + exch. K). The difference of CEC between measured and certified values were mainly because of the discrepancy of extractant pHs. The addition of CaCO3 (≤ 80 %) had no effect on CEC or exch. base cations’ determinations. The CaCO3 and CaSO4∙2 H2O combination only affected the determination of exch. Ca.
六氨合氯化钴([Co(NH3)6]Cl3)法提取可交换(exch.)对于含有碳酸钙的土壤,可使用方解石饱和的 [Co(NH3)6]Cl3 溶液来测定交换性碱阳离子。钙。方解石饱和 [Co(NH3)6]Cl3 溶液的配制时间需要过夜。本研究评估了使用搅拌改良法制备 [Co(NH3)6]Cl3 溶液的等效性。该改良方法大大节省了时间,整个萃取时间可缩短至 3-5 分钟。在测量含有碳酸钙的土壤时,可以省略制备方解石饱和[Co(NH3)6]Cl3 溶液的步骤。对于酸性土壤,所测得的 CEC 值低于认证范围,exch.Ca、Na 和 K 均在认证值范围内;exch.镁高于认证范围。对于神经性土壤,测得的 CEC、exch.钙、镁、钠和钾均在认证值范围内。对于碱性土壤,测得的 CEC 值高于认证值范围,exch.钙、镁、钠和钾均在认证范围内。对于盐碱土,测得的 CEC 值高于认证范围,钙、镁、钠和钾的交换量低于认证范围。镁和钾的交换量低于认证范围;精确的钙和钠交换量即使在盐碱地中也无法实现。由于石膏和钠盐的溶解,即使在如此短的提取时间内也无法实现 Ca 和 Na 的准确交换。对于含钠土壤,测得的 CEC 值高于认证范围,exch.镁和钾低于认证范围;萃取的钙可以认为是 exch.Ca;exch.Na 可按 CEC-(exch.Ca+exch.Mg+exch.K)计算。测量值与认证值之间的 CEC 差异主要是由于萃取剂 pH 值的差异造成的。添加 CaCO3(≤ 80%)对 CEC 或碱式阳离子交换值的测定没有影响。CaCO3 和 CaSO4∙2 H2O 的组合仅影响 exch.Ca

The drainage of peatlands increases peat decomposition, promoting the release of phosphorus (P) to soil pore water and the eventual leaching to water bodies. The P retention capacity in the soil layers affects the likelihood of subsequent P leaching to the drainage network. We aimed to study the retention patterns of P and to assess the risk of P leaching in the soil profiles of variably managed peatlands, including cultivated peatland of variable peat thickness, peatland forest, abandoned peat field, and pristine peatland in northern Finland. We studied the total concentrations of P and the P-sorbing elements iron (Fe), aluminum (Al), and calcium (Ca), P speciation in soil profiles using sequential chemical extraction, and the degree of P saturation (DPS) using ammonium oxalate extraction. Our results show that fertilization and peat decomposition have caused elevated element concentrations in cultivated sites. Other managed peatlands are rich in Fe and P, but poor in Ca compared to similar sites reported in the literature. In peat layers, P is mainly bound by organic compounds and Fe. Newly added P is likely retained by Fe and Al, although Ca-P still exists in mineral subsoils. We conclude that the heavy dependence on Fe in P sorption and low Fe:P and Al:P ratios indicate a potential of P leaching from decomposed peat when reducing conditions occur (e.g., due to water saturation), while a sufficient Al content may reduce P leaching in such conditions. Mineral subsoil above subsurface drainage has a higher P retention capacity than peat, though prevailing P saturation should be further studied in sites with a long fertilization history. Our results highlight the need to consider P leaching risk when planning peatland management and directly support the practical management of peatlands and water protection.
泥炭地排水会加剧泥炭分解,促进磷(P)向土壤孔隙水释放,并最终沥滤到水体中。土壤层中的磷滞留能力会影响磷随后沥滤到排水管网的可能性。我们的目的是研究芬兰北部不同管理方式泥炭地(包括泥炭厚度可变的耕作泥炭地、泥炭地森林、废弃泥炭田和原始泥炭地)土壤剖面中 P 的保留模式,并评估 P 沥滤的风险。我们利用顺序化学萃取法研究了土壤剖面中的钾和钾吸附元素铁(Fe)、铝(Al)和钙(Ca)的总浓度、钾的种类,并利用草酸铵萃取法研究了钾饱和度(DPS)。我们的研究结果表明,施肥和泥炭分解导致耕地中的元素浓度升高。与文献报道的类似地点相比,其他管理泥炭地的铁和磷含量丰富,但钙含量较低。在泥炭层中,磷主要由有机化合物和铁结合。新添加的磷很可能被铁和铝所保留,尽管矿物底土中仍存在钙-磷。我们的结论是,钾吸附对铁的严重依赖以及较低的铁-钾和铝-钾比率表明,当出现还原条件时(例如,由于水饱和),钾有可能从分解的泥炭中沥滤出来,而足够的铝含量可能会在这种条件下减少钾的沥滤。地下排水系统上方的矿质底土比泥炭具有更高的钾保持能力,但在施肥历史较长的地点,应进一步研究普遍的钾饱和度。我们的研究结果强调了在规划泥炭地管理时考虑钾沥滤风险的必要性,并直接支持泥炭地的实际管理和水资源保护。

Paddy-upland rotations are promising methods to improve land utilization and grain production and play crucial roles in sustainable agricultural development. However, their effects on soil conditions, rice development, and economic benefits have not yet been systematically investigated. In this study, we investigated the effects of 7 years (2016–2022) of continuous rotation of rice fallow (R-F), rice-rapeseed transplanting (R-tRS), rice-wheat (R-W), and rice-rapeseed direct seeding (R-dRS) on: 1) rice production; 2) key enzymes and genes related to grain starch biosynthesis during the filling stages; 3) paddy soil physiochemical properties, soil enzyme activities, and microbes; and 4) annual economic benefits. Our results showed that 7 years of continuous rotations, especially rice-rapeseed rotations, helped improve soil quality by increasing the organic matter, total nitrogen content, soil sucrase, phosphatase, urease, dehydrogenase, and cellulase, and inhibiting the decrease in pH, available nitrogen, and phosphorous contents. Benefitted by the improved soil conditions, R-dRS showed the highest rice yield of 7800.3 kg·ha−1, revealing increases of 14.3, 4.8, and 6.3 % compared with R-F, R-tRS, and R-W, respectively, mainly owing to the increase of effective panicle numbers. Moreover, the grain starch contents also increased owing to the increase of starch-biosynthesis-related enzymes activities and gene expression in the filling stages; consequently, R-dRS resulted in the most gross margins of 1676.5 dollars·ha−1, with increases of 74.9 %, 14.9 %, and 19.7 % compared with R-F, R-tRS, and R-W. Furthermore, key microbes closely related to soil properties and traits of rice yield were identified using the liner discriminant analysis (LDA) effect size (LEfSe) and Mantel methods after bacterial 16S and fungal ITS sequencing. In conclusion, we validated the advantages of paddy-upland rotation, especially R-dRS, in terms of soil improvement, plant growth, and economic benefits. The longitudinal variation trends of annual soil physiochemical properties, key microbes, and the influence of improved soil conditions on rice grain filling were identified, providing a theoretical basis for food security and sustainability.
水旱轮作是改善土地利用和粮食生产的有效方法,在农业可持续发展中发挥着重要作用。然而,它们对土壤条件、水稻发育和经济效益的影响尚未得到系统的研究。在本研究中,我们研究了7年(2016-2022)稻田休耕(R-F)、水稻-油菜移栽(R-tRS)、水稻-小麦(R-W)和水稻-油菜直播(R-dRS)对水稻产量的影响:1)水稻产量;灌浆期籽粒淀粉生物合成的关键酶和基因;3)水稻土理化性质、土壤酶活性、微生物;4)年经济效益。结果表明,连续轮作7年,特别是稻-油菜轮作,通过增加有机质、全氮含量、土壤蔗糖酶、磷酸酶、脲酶、脱氢酶和纤维素酶,抑制pH、速效氮和磷含量的下降,有助于改善土壤质量。由于土壤条件的改善,R-dRS的水稻产量最高,为7800.3 kg·ha - 1,比R-F、R-tRS和R-W分别提高了14.3%、4.8%和6.3 %,主要原因是有效穗数的增加。灌浆期淀粉生物合成相关酶活性和基因表达量的增加也增加了籽粒淀粉含量;因此,R-dRS的毛利率最高,为1676.5美元·ha - 1,与R-F、R-tRS和R-W相比,分别增长了74.9 %、14.9 %和19.7 %。此外,通过细菌16S和真菌ITS测序,利用线性判别分析(LDA)、效应大小(LEfSe)和Mantel方法鉴定出与土壤性状和水稻产量性状密切相关的关键微生物。综上所述,我们验证了水旱作轮作,特别是旱作轮作在土壤改良、植物生长和经济效益方面的优势。确定了土壤理化性质、关键微生物、土壤条件改善对水稻灌浆的纵向变化趋势,为粮食安全与可持续发展提供理论依据。

All currently applied methods for soil moisture measurement and mapping in agricultural fields are labor-intensive and time-consuming. The Pulsed Fast Thermal Neutron Analysis (PFTNA) method, described in this article, can provide in situ soil moisture distribution data across agricultural fields by field scanning with a mobile PFTNA system in a reasonably short time. This method is based on acquiring soil gamma ray responses when irradiated by fast neutrons. The response gamma spectra [thermal neutron capture (TNC) gamma spectra] contain the gamma ray peak related to hydrogen present in soil. Since the majority of hydrogen is contained in soil water, soil moisture can be determined from the value of the hydrogen peak area in TNC spectra. A power dependency with a non-zero constant term was used to convert the hydrogen peak area to soil moisture content. To create this dependency, the hydrogen peak area in the TNC spectra was plotted against moisture data obtained using other methods (gravimetric, time domain reflectometry, nuclear radiation transmission) in the same agricultural fields. Developed methods for PFTNA field scanning and data processing provided data for moisture mapping; this scanning method involved moving at 5 km h−1, simultaneously recording GPS coordinates and TNC gamma spectra every 30 s, and scanning paths that uniformly covered surveyed fields. Comparison of these maps with those created using data from traditional soil moisture measurement methods (gravimetric, time domain reflectometry, nuclear radiation transmission) demonstrated good agreement. Note that PFTNA scanning of a 20-hectare field can acquire the data needed for mapping in approximately one hour. Thus, PFTNA scanning can be recommended as a more efficient method for measuring and mapping soil moisture in agricultural fields.
目前在农业领域应用的土壤水分测量和制图方法都是劳动密集型和耗时的。本文介绍的脉冲快热中子分析(PFTNA)方法可以在相当短的时间内通过移动PFTNA系统进行现场扫描,提供农田土壤水分分布数据。该方法的基础是获取快中子照射土壤时的伽马射线响应。响应伽马谱[热中子捕获(TNC)伽马谱]包含与土壤中存在的氢有关的伽马射线峰。由于土壤水分中含有大部分氢,因此可以通过TNC光谱中氢峰面积的大小来确定土壤水分。利用非零常数项的功率依赖关系将氢峰面积转换为土壤含水量。为了建立这种依赖关系,将TNC光谱中的氢峰面积与使用其他方法(重力法、时域反射法、核辐射透射法)在同一农田中获得的水分数据进行了对比。开发了PFTNA现场扫描和数据处理方法,为水分制图提供了数据;该扫描方法以5 km h−1的速度移动,每30 s同时记录GPS坐标和TNC伽马谱,扫描路径均匀覆盖被测场。将这些地图与使用传统土壤湿度测量方法(重力测量、时域反射法、核辐射透射法)的数据绘制的地图进行比较,结果显示出良好的一致性。请注意,PFTNA扫描20公顷的田地可以在大约一个小时内获得测绘所需的数据。因此,可以推荐PFTNA扫描作为一种更有效的测量和绘制农田土壤湿度的方法。

Low temperatures pose a significant threat to agricultural production, particularly during early spring, late autumn, and winter in northern China, adversely affecting the yield and quality of cold-sensitive crops, such as tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.). Nano-silicon (SiNPs) represent a prominent application of nanotechnology in agriculture, owing to their unique structure and physicochemical properties, which have demonstrated remarkable efficacy in enhancing plant stress resistance. In this study, we utilized 'Zhongza 9′ tomato cultivar as the test material to investigate the effects of SiNPs, applied through foliar spraying at a concentration of 100 mg·L−1, on nutrient uptake and the microbiome of tomato roots under low-temperature stress. The experiments were conducted using substrate culture at room temperature (25/16℃) and low temperature (15/6℃). The results indicated that the application of SiNPs could enhance the cold tolerance of tomato plants by improving root configuration, photosynthetic capacity, antioxidant capacity, carbon and nitrogen metabolism, as well as nutrient absorption and utilization. Furthermore, SiNPs were found to influence the structure of the rhizosphere microbial community, thereby promoting soil nutrient release. This study elucidates the intricate dynamics between roots, soil, and microbes in mitigating low-temperature stress in plants. Moreover, it provides a crucial theoretical framework for advancing the utilization of SiNPs in agricultural contexts, offering valuable insights for enhancing agricultural productivity in challenging environmental conditions.
低温对农业生产构成重大威胁,特别是在中国北方的早春、深秋和冬季,对番茄等冷敏感作物的产量和品质产生不利影响。纳米硅(SiNPs)以其独特的结构和理化性质,在提高植物抗逆性方面表现出显著的效果,是纳米技术在农业领域的重要应用。以“中扎9号”番茄为试验材料,研究了低温胁迫下叶面喷施浓度为100 mg·L−1的SiNPs对番茄根系养分吸收和微生物组的影响。实验采用底物培养,室温(25/16℃)和低温(15/6℃)。结果表明,施用SiNPs可以通过改善番茄根系形态、光合能力、抗氧化能力、碳氮代谢和养分吸收利用等提高番茄植株的耐寒性。此外,还发现SiNPs影响根际微生物群落结构,从而促进土壤养分释放。本研究阐明了植物根系、土壤和微生物在缓解低温胁迫中的复杂动态关系。此外,该研究还为推进sinp在农业环境中的利用提供了重要的理论框架,为在具有挑战性的环境条件下提高农业生产力提供了有价值的见解。

Improving soil fertility is pressingly needed for national and global sustainable development. Land fallow has been considered an important measure to alleviate the degradation of soil fertility. However, it remains unclear regarding how fallow affects soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (TN) pools. Therefore, our objective was to assess the effects of fallow on SOC and TN pools along the 0–200 cm soil profile, and to further clarify whether its long-term effects are consistent with medium-term effects. Through a comparative field study on a fluvo-aquic soil, we evaluated both medium (11 years 1991–2001) and long-term (27 years 1991–2016) effects of two land management practices on SOC and TN pools, soil biogeochemical properties and microbial communities. The practices were: (1) natural fallow and (2) chemical N, phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) fertilizers (NPK treatment). Results showed that for the medium-term experiment, SOC and TN pools along the 0–200 cm soil profile in the fallow treatment were 10.9 %-98.9 % and 11.4 %-91.8 %, respectively, of that in NPK. For the long-term experiment, however, the SOC pools in the fallow were 1.1–1.6 times that of NPK, and for TN correspondingly 1.1–1.2 times in the 0–60 cm soil layer but only 16.4 %-75.3 % in the 60–200 cm layer. Furthermore, fallow resulted in lower microbial biomass C (MBC), N mineralization and potential nitrification rate than NPK did. Fallow increased the relative abundance of Proteobacteria but decreased that of Chloroflexi and Nitrospirae. These results imply that the lower microbial activity especially the reduction of nitrification processes may have contributed to the greater soil C and N sequestration of fallow with the time prolonged. In conclusion, medium-term fallow will inhibit the increase of soil C and N storage, although it can improve soil C and N storage in the long term in North China Plain.
提高土壤肥力是国家和全球可持续发展的迫切需要。土地休耕一直被认为是缓解土壤肥力退化的重要措施。然而,休耕对土壤有机碳(SOC)和全氮(TN)库的影响尚不清楚。因此,我们的目标是评估休耕对0-200 cm土壤剖面上有机碳和全氮库的影响,并进一步阐明其长期效应是否与中期效应一致。通过对河流-潮土的田间对比研究,我们评估了两种土地管理方式对土壤有机碳和全氮库、土壤生物地球化学性质和微生物群落的中期(1991-2001年11年)和长期(1991-2016年27年)的影响。做法是:(1)自然休耕和(2)化学N、P、K肥(NPK处理)。结果表明,在中期试验中,休耕处理0 ~ 200 cm土壤有机碳和全氮库分别为氮磷钾处理的10.9 % ~ 98.9 %和11.4 % ~ 91.8 %。在长期试验中,休耕期土壤有机碳库是氮磷钾的1.1 ~ 1.6倍,全氮在0 ~ 60 cm土层为1.1 ~ 1.2倍,在60 ~ 200 cm土层仅为16.4 % ~ 75.3 %。与氮磷钾相比,休耕导致微生物量C (MBC)、氮矿化和潜在硝化速率降低。休耕提高了变形菌门的相对丰度,降低了氯氟菌门和硝基螺旋菌门的相对丰度。这些结果表明,随着休耕时间的延长,微生物活性的降低,特别是硝化过程的减少,可能是土壤碳氮固存量增加的原因。综上所述,华北平原中期休耕对土壤碳氮储量的增加有抑制作用,但长期休耕能提高土壤碳氮储量。

Tillage is a useful practice for increasing crop yield, however, its effectiveness is readily influenced by different agro-ecological conditions and cultivation measures. The effects of different tillage methods on wheat yield remain unclear. Therefore, we identified 197 studies and conducted a meta-analysis to determine the effects of three representative tillage methods (no-tillage, subsoiling, and deep ploughing) on wheat yield and soil physicochemical properties according to variations in the mean annual precipitation and temperature, soil texture, soil pH, years of continuous tillage, basic soil fertility, and fertilization level. The average yield increased by 3.5 % under deep ploughing because of the marked decrease in soil bulk density under different production conditions, whereas soil organic carbon and total nitrogen increased significantly, with an average yield increase of 7.0 % under subsoiling tillage. No-tillage overcame the adverse effects of increased soil bulk density on yield by promoting soil carbon and nitrogen accumulation, and had no marked effects on wheat grain yield. The yields increased significantly by 4.5 % after no-tillage for more than seven years. In contrast, deep ploughing tillage initially increased yields, but yields decreased with the number of years under continuous tillage. Overall, subsoiling was the most effective method increasing wheat grain yield and soil physicochemical properties. No-tillage was an effective method under conditions of mean annual precipitation < 400 mm; mean annual temperature < 12°C; loam, neutral or alkaline soil; and medium fertility farmland. Deep ploughing was the most effective in farmlands with low fertilizer levels. The results provide a scientific basis for help agricultural producers to formulate suitable farming practices for appropriate management of production factors.
耕作是提高作物产量的有效措施,但其效果容易受到不同农业生态条件和耕作措施的影响。不同耕作方式对小麦产量的影响尚不清楚。因此,我们选取了197项研究,并根据年平均降水量和温度、土壤质地、土壤pH、连作年限、土壤基本肥力和施肥水平的变化,进行了meta分析,以确定三种具有代表性的耕作方式(免耕、深耕和深耕)对小麦产量和土壤理化性质的影响。由于不同生产条件下土壤容重显著降低,深耕平均增产3.5 %,土壤有机碳和全氮显著增加,深耕平均增产7.0 %。免耕通过促进土壤碳氮积累克服了土壤容重增加对产量的不利影响,对小麦籽粒产量无显著影响。免耕7年以上,产量显著提高4.5% %。相比之下,深耕耕作初期产量增加,但随着连作年限的增加产量下降。总体而言,深埋土壤是提高小麦籽粒产量和土壤理化性质最有效的方法。在年平均降水量<; 400 mm;年平均气温<; 12°C;壤土,中性或碱性土壤;中等肥力农田。在肥料水平较低的农田,深耕最有效。研究结果为帮助农业生产者制定适宜的耕作方式,合理管理生产要素提供了科学依据。

The effects of different tillage methods on wheat yield remain unclear. Therefore, we identified 197 studies and conducted a meta-analysis to determine the effects of three representative tillage methods (no-tillage, subsoiling, and deep ploughing) on wheat yield and soil physicochemical properties according to variations in the mean annual precipitation and temperature, soil texture, soil pH, years of continuous tillage, basic soil fertility, and fertilization level. The average yield increased by 3.5 % under deep ploughing because of the marked decrease in soil bulk density under different production conditions, whereas soil organic carbon and total nitrogen increased significantly, with an average yield increase of 7.0 % under subsoiling tillage. No-tillage overcame the adverse effects of increased soil bulk density on yield by promoting soil carbon and nitrogen accumulation, and had no marked effects on wheat grain yield. The yields increased significantly by 4.5 % after no-tillage for more than seven years. In contrast, deep ploughing tillage initially increased yields, but yields decreased with the number of years under continuous tillage. Overall, subsoiling was the most effective method increasing wheat grain yield and soil physicochemical properties. No-tillage was an effective method under conditions of mean annual precipitation &lt; 400 mm; mean annual temperature &lt; 12°C; loam, neutral or alkaline soil; and medium fertility farmland.
