“…Actually, the basic sources of SOC are organic residues, straw, green and farmyard manure (Tripolskaja, Šidlauskas, 2010;KwiatkowskaMalina, 2011;Marcinkeviciene et al, 2013;Tripolskaja et al, 2014), content of SOC depends upon soil used (Mikučionienė, 2010;Liaudanskienė et al, 2013;Mikučionienė, Aleinikovienė, 2013;Slepetiene et al, 2013), soil can be characterized by differences in organic carbon stability. Thereby, straw must be used as readily available and effective carbon recourse on farms, especially on crop production farms.…”

“…Literature survey is under-resourced while describing combinations of interactions of tillage intensity, the application of straw and catch crop growing for green manure on soil organic matter quantity and quality (Marcinkeviciene et al, 2013;Tripolskaja et al, 2014). With this aim in mind, the study was done in Lithuania on a drained clay loam on silty clay with deeper lying sandy loam.…”

Nowadays the priority in agriculture is given to the soil tillage systems which enable reduction of organic matter decomposition. Our investigation was aimed to assess the long-term impact of reduced intensity tillage systems, straw and green manure combinations on soil organic matter quantity and quality. Since 1999, a long-term field experiment has been done at the Experimental Station of Aleksandras Stulginskis University (former Lithuanian University of Agriculture) at 54º52′50′′ N latitude and 23º49′41′′ E longitude. The results presented in this paper were obtained in the 12 th and 14 th years of investigations. The soil of the experimental site is Epieutric Endocalcaric Endogleyic Planosol. Continuous long-term (12 and 14 years) straw application increased soil organic carbon (SOC) content by 9.3% and 12.0% compared with the plots without straw. Reduced tillage systems without primary tillage (shallow rotovating before sowing, catch cropping for green manure with rotovating, no-tillage) were even more effective. Compared with conventional ploughing, SOC increased by 19.4% to 33.9%. These tillage systems increased soil quality too, since SOC stratification ratio between 0-10 and 10-20 cm layers increased by 1.14 till 1.21. Reduced tillage systems with primary tillage (shallow ploughing and shallow loosening) had no effect both on SOC and stratification process in the soil. SOC pools over the experimental years tended to increase by 9.3% and 11.6% in the treatments of long-term application of straw compared with the plots without straw. Notillage and catch cropping for green manure with rotovating compared with conventional ploughing significantly increased the pools of organic carbon by 31.7% to 33.3% in the plots without straw and by 28.9% to 32.7% in the plots with straw. Continuous straw application increased the quantity of mobile humus substances by 22.7% compared to the plots without straw. Straw in combination with catch crop for green manure incorporation and rotovating and no-tillage increased mobile humus substances by 53.2% and 58.8% compared with conventional ploughing. Only long-term application of straw increased the quantity of mobile humic acids by 40.6% compared with the plots without straw. The rate of mobile humic acids from total amount of mobile humus substances in the treatments without straw amounted to 39.8%, while with straw this content increased to 45.6%. Reduced tillage systems without primary tillage had no significant effect on mobile humic acids but tended to increase soil organic matter quality.

“…Among the organic amended fields, the TN and SOC of the treatments were significantly different with the exception of CM and TL which had no significant difference in TN content (P < .05). The application of organic amendments increased SOC content which is important for improving soil environment and promoting SOC storage [59]. The increase in SOC in the organic amended fields was attributed to the enhanced organic matter content with the addition of organic amendments.…”

Aims:This research aimed to assess how the physicochemical properties of black soil respond to different organic amendments after 10 years of application. Study Design: The experiment was established in 2010 and followed a randomized block design consisting of 24 plots (5 m × 5 m) 25 m 2 with eight treatments in three replicates. Place and Duration of Study:The study site was located at the Jilin Agricultural University Research Farm, Northeast China (43°48′ N, 125°23′ E; km). Methodology: The treatments for the study included an annual input of chemical fertilizer and organic amendments at the surface of the soil. The treatments were: Control (CK), chicken manure Opoku-Kwanowaa et al.; AJAAR, 12(2): 24-34, 2020; Article no.AJAAR.54606 25 (JM), fodder grass (FG), mushroom (MS), maize straw (MZ), tree leaf (TL), pig manure (PM) and cow manure (CM). Chemical fertilizers were added at the rate of 165 kg of N, 82.5 kg of P and 82.5 kg of K ha_1 per year. Application rates of organic materials were adjusted to similar amounts of organic matter (2000 kgha−1). In June 2019, soil samples were collected from each of the amended fields. In each field, three sampling points were randomly selected. Soil samples were collected from the 0 -20 cm depth using a core sampler then taken to the laboratory for soil physicochemical properties analysis. Results: Comparing the results of the organic treatments with CK, bulk density decreased by 5.6-18.0% while porosity, EC, pH, total N and SOC significantly increased in the organic treatments by 6.0-25.9%, 8.3-25.0%, 0.52-1.7%, 2.7-54.7% and 1.3-18.4% respectively. The textural class of soil under the different treatments did not change however, the distribution of soil particle size varied among the treatments, where high clay and silt content were recorded in the amended fields. Moreover, the application of different organic materials significantly affected the soil aggregate stability and this was attributed to the increase in organic matter content which accelerated important microbial activities in the soil to improve aggregation. At higher suction potentials, higher water contents were recorded in the organic amended fields mainly due to the improved physical properties of the soil. Original Research Article Conclusion:The study results showed that the application of organic amendments greatly improves the physical and chemical properties of black soil. Therefore, using these organic amendments can serve as an effective strategy to enhance soil quality and fertility.

“…In contrast to the findings of Trap et al (2013), we did not find the significant correlations between litter C/N and humus properties. That might be on account of the alteration of litter C/N during the decomposition, because the litter residues with given C/N range tend to form different humus components (Tripolskaja et al, 2014).…”
