A comprehensive synthesis of 32 long-term experiments in China is performed by comparing yields and SOM contents and their time by nutrient management responses (TNMR) to determine whether and to what extent combined application of organics amendments and fertilizers (organics + fertilizers) can increase productivity and soil organic matter (SUM) content and enhance the sustainability of diverse cropping systems. TNMR is defined as percentage changes over time in yields and SOM contents in external nutrient input treatments relative to initial and control plots and represents the net effects of nutrient management strategies on yields and SOM contents. Organics + fertilizers significantly increased yields over three crops (wheat, maize and rice) on average by 29% relative to sole organics and 8% to fertilizer only. Higher TNMR values in yields were found with organics + fertilizers in the sequence wheat (53%) > maize (40%) > rice (8%). Significant and positive time trends in TNMR of organics + fertilizers in wheat and maize yield may imply enhanced sustainability of cropping systems. Addition of organics (alone or combined with fertilizers) increased SOM contents and their TNMR over fertilizers applied alone. However, benefits varied between organics and organics + fertilizers by land use type. The latter led to higher SOM contents than (for dry land) and similar to the former (for dry-flooded and flooded systems). 2.3 and 1.4 times higher TNMR of organics + fertilizers in SOM content in dry land than dry-flooded and flooded systems implies that dry land was more responsive in SOM content increase upon adoption of organics + fertilizers than the latter. Overall, despite variation in the quantitative magnitude in crop or land use type, compared with application of organics or fertilizers only, a combination of both represents the most effective way to produce more food, build up SOM and enhance sustainability, especially in dry land cropping systems.
