“…The continuous use of N alone, for 42 years, had the most acidifying effect with the soil pH value declining from 5.8 to 4.5 and adversely affects wheat and maize GY [69]. The higher GY under NPK and NPKC R +L in this study might be attributed to the higher soil pH H20 , NO 3 − -N, SOM, P Olsen , AK and TN contents and N uptake observed under these treatments than other treatments.…”

“…However, previous reports from greater than 5-years L had a positive influence on crop yields [23,62,68], N-uptake [69], and P-use efficiency [43], because of its various positive effects on the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the soil. Inconsistent with the present study (Figures 3-6), [43] noted that L can significantly reduce soil acidification by decreasing soil exchangeable acidic cation (Al 3+ ) and by increasing soil exchangeable base cations (Ca 2+ ), which, in turn, increases crop productivity, nutrient uptake and use efficiency.…”

Liming (L) is a common practice to mitigate soil acidification and enhance soil quality and crop productivity. However, in acidic soil, it is not clear how long-term application of lime and nitrogen (N)-based fertilizer affects soil chemical properties, the wheat and maize grain yields (GY), and N-use efficiency (NUE). Thus, to investigate the effects of N-based fertilizations without L (−L) and with L (+L) on wheat and maize GY and NUE through their effects on soil chemical properties, we analyzed a 28-year field experiment in acidic soil under a wheat-maize system in South China. The analysis was carried out between 1991 and 2010 (before L) and between 2011 and 2018 (after L). We categorized the treatments into (1) no fertilizer (C); nitrogen (N); N and phosphorus (NP); N and potassium (NK); N, P and K (NPK); and NPKCR, NPK and crops residue (CR) applications (NPKCR), before L; and (2) C; N − L; N + L; NP − L; NP + L; NK − L; NK + L; NPK − L; NPK + L; NPKCR − L and NPKCR + L, after L. The effects of long-term fertilization resulted in lower soil pH by 15%, soil available K (AK) by 19%, POlsen by 6%, NO3−-N by 15%, soil organic matter (SOM) by 16%, total N by 16%, and C:N ratio by 13% in −L soil than in +L soil. However, the accumulation of NH4+-N was higher by 40% in −L soil than in +L soil. Wheat and maize GY, N recovery efficiency (REN), and N partial factor productivity (PEPN) were more adversely affected by 8-year fertilizations in −L compared with fertilizations before L and in +L primarily because of the significantly decreased soil pH. Conversely, improvements in wheat and maize yields, REN, and PFPN by 8-year fertilizations in +L were related to increasing soil pH, exchangeable base cations such as Ca2+, Mg2+, and the alleviated toxicity of Al3+. Overall, improvement of GY and NUE from the acidified soil in South China requires the long-term integrated use of fertilizer (NPK), retention of CR, and the +L (i.e., NPKCR + L).

A field experiment was conducted at Agriculture Research Station Bahawalpur (Pakistan) during Kharif, 2016 to evaluate the response of cluster bean against bio and chemical fertilizers. The treatments consisted of three levels of nitrogen (urea 75g, 85g and 95g/40g seeds) with three level of Rhizobium (1.5g, 2.0g and 2.5g/40g of seeds). The experiment arranged in a randomized complete block design with 16 treatments and three replications. Combine treatment of urea and Rhizobium resulted in maximum plant height, number of pods/plants, number of seeds/pod, 1000 seeds weight, yield/plant, and chlorophyll content. Similarly, application of 2.5g rhizobium and 85g of urea separately resulted in highest number of leaves. Our results concluded that the use of urea and rhizobium in consortium could be a potential agronomic practice for the production of high grain yield in cluster bean.

“…The CEC value of soil was comparatively high in 100% NPK + FYM treated plots which might be due to the higher organic colloids in these plots. The increase in CEC with the addition of FYM can be attributed to the increase in root biomass and crop residue production and then incorporation in soil (Meena et al, 2017) [23] . Bellaki et al, 1998 [4] stated that combined application of organic and inorganic sources of nutrients resulted significant increase in CEC over control.…”

A long term imbalanced use of fertilizers is adversely affecting the sustainability of agricultural production eventually causing environmental pollution. The major issue for the sustainable agricultural production will be management of soil organic carbon and rational use of organic inputs as integrated plant resource management. It play a vital role in improving stocks of plant nutrient in soil by increasing the efficiency of plant nutrients, thus limiting losses to the environment. It optimize the function of the soil biosphere and ultimately sustaining the physical, chemical and biological function of soil. This paper has reviewed the research work carried out by various scientist on impact of integrated nutrient management on different soil chemical properties in India and abroad.
