In defence of soil biodiversity: Towards an inclusive protection in the European Union

J. Koninger et al.

Summary: This article discusses the importance of the new EU Soil Strategy and its relation to other environmental protection strategies. It also assesses the current measures in place for soil biodiversity protection at both the EU and national levels. The findings show that only a few EU member states explicitly address the threats to soil biodiversity, and EU directives only focus on individual threats. The article suggests implementing an EU-wide, legally binding protection measure and combining it with incentive-based instruments and predictive models.

Microbial Indices to Assess Soil Health under Different Tillage and Fertilization in Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) Crop

Sara Marinari et al.

Summary: The study shows that deep subsoiling has a significant impact on microbial indices and enzyme activity in the soil compared to other tillage methods. Overall, there was a decrease in soil enzyme activity in 2016 compared to 2015.

Remote Sensing Monitoring of Durum Wheat under No Tillage Practices by Means of Spectral Indices Interpretation: A Preliminary Study

Federico Calcagno et al.

Summary: Due to its advantages, remote sensing monitoring has been widely used and made significant contributions in various applications and in understanding soil and plant processes, as well as in the agriculture sector. This study aims to compare the return of durum wheat crops in conservative agricultural practices and investigate the effects of different spectral indices and machine guidance on production yields. The results showed that the NDVI, NDWI, and NMDI had different responses to crop phenological stages and conservation tillage practices, indicating their potential use in monitoring crop growth and soil moisture.

The impacts of environmental and climate targets on agriculture: Policy options in Italy

R. Cortignani et al.

Summary: This study aims to propose a model for assessing the economic private costs incurred by farms as a result of implementing environmental targets set by the European Farm to Fork strategy and the objective of a carbon-neutral agricultural sector. The study also evaluates the synergies and trade-offs between environmental objectives. The model, based on mathematical programming and microdata from the Farm Accountancy Data Network, is applied to Italian agriculture as a case study. The results show losses in added value, an increase in resource efficiency, and synergies among different targets. Policy implications include leveraging the synergies and implementing measures to compensate the most impacted sectors.

Development and Assessment of Carbon Farming Solutions

Ketija Bumbiere et al.

Summary: The EU aims to decrease GHG emissions through the EU Carbon Farming initiative, which rewards farming practices that remove CO2 from the atmosphere. The research identifies carbon farming solutions in the agriculture sector, including minimal/zero tillage, carbon sequestration in soils, biogas and biomethane production, perennial plant growing, and agroforestry.

Converting continuous cropping to rotation including subsoiling improves crop yield and prevents soil water deficit: A 12-yr in-situ study in the Loess Plateau, China

Haoyu Li et al.

Summary: Crop rotation and conservation tillage are effective strategies to optimize water resources distribution and utilization in semi-arid regions. They can enhance grain yield, reduce precipitation loss, and increase water use efficiency, while regulating soil water balance. Conservation tillage can help maintain soil water balance over time compared to conventional tillage methods, contributing to better soil water sustainability.

Evaluating the tillage management direction effects on soil attributes by space series analysis (case study: a semiarid region in Iran)

Saeedeh Marzvan et al.

Summary: This study developed a methodology based on improved space series to differentiate between spatial variability of soil attributes and the effect of tillage direction. Comparison between forecasted and measured data revealed that evaluating the tillage direction effect based on comparison between adjacent fields can lead to overestimation or underestimation.

Diversity of soil-borne fungal species associated to root rot and vine decline of melon in Sardinia (Italy)

Alessandro Infantino et al.

Summary: Monosporascus root rot and vine decline of melon (MRRVD) is a destructive disease complex mainly occurring in semiarid cultivation areas. A two-year survey in Sardinia found that different soil-borne fungal pathogens were associated with MRRVD in different locations and cropping seasons, with Olpidium bornovanus and O. virulentus possibly playing a key role in disease development. Soil fungal diversity may be related to the development of the disease.
