Greenhouse Gas Fluxes from Selected Soil Fertility Management Practices in Humic Nitisols of Upper Eastern Kenya

Miriam W. Githongo et al.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of different soil fertility management practices in Kenya's central highlands and finds that integrating inorganic fertilizer and maize residue retention can reduce emissions, increase soil organic carbon sequestration, and improve maize yields.

Combination of organic fertilizer and slow-release fertilizer increases pineapple yields, agronomic efficiency and reduces greenhouse gas emissions under reduced fertilization conditions in tropical areas

Zhenghao Liang et al.

Summary: In the tropics of China, the use of large amounts of chemical fertilizer to ensure pineapple productivity leads to fertilizer leaching loss and greenhouse gas emissions. This study investigates the potential of reducing fertilizer applications to increase pineapple yield, quality, agronomic efficiency, and reduce global warming potential. The results show that reducing nitrogen fertilizers and replacing them with organic and slow-release fertilizers significantly increases pineapple yield, agronomic efficiency, and reduces greenhouse gas emissions without compromising quality. The INF + M + S treatment is recommended as an environmentally friendly fertilization strategy for pineapple production in tropical regions.

Soil greenhouse gas emissions, organic carbon and crop yield following pinewood biochar and biochar-manure applications at eroded and depositional landscape positions: A field trial in South Dakota, USA

Gandura Omar Abagandura et al.

Summary: Soil amendments such as biochar and manure can improve soil quality and crop yield, while also impacting greenhouse gas emissions. This research studied the effects of field biochar and manure applications on different soil types, finding that biochar can increase soil organic carbon and influence greenhouse gas emissions depending on soil texture.

Mitigation of Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Agricultural Fields through Bioresource Management

Rimsha Khan et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the role of organic amendments in increasing carbon sequestration potential and mitigating greenhouse gas emissions from potato fields. The results showed that organic amendments significantly sequestered more soil organic carbon and helped reduce CO2 emissions. Soil temperature and rainfall events had a significant impact on soil moisture and temperature, which in turn affected greenhouse gas emissions.

Organic Amendments Boost Soil Fertility and Rice Productivity and Reduce Methane Emissions from Paddy Fields under Sub-Tropical Conditions

Md Mahamudul Haque et al.

Summary: The study found that applying 75% recommended fertilizer (RF) + 2 t biosolid (ha-1) (T3) was the most effective treatment in terms of rice productivity and soil fertility, while also showing moderate reduction in CH4 emissions.
