Trade-off between soil aggregate stability and carbon decomposition under 44 years long-term integrated nutrient management in rice-wheat-jute system

S. P. Mazumdar et al.

Summary: Soil stability, yield decline, and higher carbon decomposition are key issues in intensive agriculture. This study investigates the specific effects of a rice-wheat-jute cropping system on soil aggregate distribution, C-stability, and the trade-off between C-storage and decomposition rate in a long-term integrated nutrient management trial. The results showed that the addition of farmyard manure with NPK improved soil aggregates and associated C-pools, while the integrated nutrient management enhanced C-storage but also increased the decomposition rate. A trade-off exists between soil-aggregate stabilization and C-decomposition rate, with higher C-storage in the integrated nutrient management system.

Integrated nutrient management reduced the nutrient losses and increased crop yield in irrigated wheat

Sibananda Darjee et al.

Summary: Integrated nutrient management (INM) improves soil fertility, crop yield, and nitrogen use efficiency by integrating recommended dose fertilizers and biofertilizers. Application of NPK + Azotobacter + mycorrhiza combination has been found to enhance soil nitrogen dynamics, nutrient availability, and crop yield.

Micronutrients availability in soil-plant system as influenced by long-term integrated nutrient management under rice-wheat cropping

Prabhjot Singh et al.

Summary: The long-term integrated nutrient management (INM) involving chemical fertilizers and organic amendments such as farmyard manure (FYM) has been shown to increase the availability of micronutrients in a rice-wheat cropping system. The build-up of soil organic carbon and decrease in soil pH lead to an increase in bio-available forms of micronutrients. The study concludes that the integration of FYM with NPK fertilizers is more effective in regulating the supply of micronutrients and correcting deficiencies in the rice-wheat cropping system.

Long-Term Integrated Nutrient Management in the Maize-Wheat Cropping System in Alluvial Soils of North-Western India: Influence on Soil Organic Carbon, Microbial Activity and Nutrient Status

Salwinder Singh Dhaliwal et al.

Summary: Integrated nutrient management (INM) is crucial for sustainable crop productivity and soil fertility preservation. Adding organic manures improves soil characteristics and nutrient availability, enhancing organic carbon content, available N, P, and K levels, as well as micronutrient status. The combination of organic and inorganic fertilizers also benefits soil physical properties and microbial activity, albeit impacting soil pH, EC, and bulk density.

Short-Term Carbon Sequestration and Changes of Soil Organic Carbon Pools in Rice under Integrated Nutrient Management in India

Mousumi Ghosh et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of different organic manures combined with chemical fertilizers on rice yield, soil carbon pools, and carbon sequestration. It found that vermicompost, farmyard manure, and Gliricidia provide more labile carbon, which can improve rice yield in the short term. Despite the increase in carbon sequestration observed in more recalcitrant carbon pools, rice straw combined with nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium fertilizer resulted in limited increase in rice yield over the short term.
