“…The results of the present study highlight the importance of organic amendment application to improve the SOC content and distribution of nutrients in soils, especially when they are deficient in nutrients (are degraded) (Šimanský et al, 2015;Dhaliwal et al, 2019;Du et al, 2020). The results of the regression analysis show that soil management practices that increase soil pH, SOC, K exch , and plant P-uptake have a greater effect on cucumber production (yield performance).…”

One of the main UN Millennium Development Goals is eradication of poverty and hunger through food security. Unfortunately, this goal is difficult to achieve in Nigeria due to soil degradation, low soil fertility, and other agricultural challenges. The current research on food security in Nigeria is focused on improving soil fertility using low-cost organic amendments. Thus, in 2019, the study investigated the residual effects of the repeated animal manure application on the cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) yield, the nutrient uptake, and the soil nutrient status of a coarse-textured Ultisol in a greenhouse at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka. The experiment was conducted in a completely randomised design with four treatments: poultry manure (PM30), cow manure (CM30), and pig manure (PgM30) applied at 30 t ha −1 , and untreated control with five replicates. The experiment was performed (repeated) three times. The results showed that the soil pH increased (p < 0.05) by 33.3% for the PM30 treatment, 13% for the PgM30 treatment, and 11.1% for the CM30 treatment and decreased by −7.4% for the control treatment compared to the initial amount of the soil pH (5.4). The total nitrogen (N tot ) increased by 99.4% (CM30), 63.3% (PgM30), and 56.3% (PM30) compared to the initial N tot (4.8 g kg −1 ). The available phosphorus (P avail ) in the PM30, PgM30, and CM30 treatments increased by 1204%, 171%, and 164%, respectively, while in the control treatment, it decreased by −59.6% compared to the initial P avail (7.57 mg kg −1 ). The soil organic carbon (SOC) increased by 13.3% (CM30), 3.9% (PM30), and 3.9% (PgM30) compared to the initial SOC content (1.28%) and decreased by −18.8% in the control treatment. Cucumber growth parameters: the number of fruits, fruit weight, and biomass (fresh and dry), were significantly higher (p < 0.05) in the amended treatments compared to the control treatment. There was a significant correlation between the cucumber yield, N-uptake, P-uptake, and soil nutrients. The results of regression analysis showed that the cucumber yield was increased by 91, 61, 56.4, and 86.4 % due to SOC, N tot , N-uptake, and P-uptake, respectively. This study indicates that the repeated animal manure application has a positive residual effect on the properties of coarse-textured Ultisol and cucumber yield performance.

“…Suitable soil conditions and sufficient nutrient supplies are essential for grape yields and quality [5]. Fertilization is the basic management practice in modern agriculture that significantly affects soil nutrient supply and soil properties, such as soil pH, salinity and porosity [6]. The fundamental functions of macronutrients in grapevine growth, including nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K), have been examined in many previous studies [7].…”

Soil nutrient characteristics are key factors that regulate grape growth and fruit quality. To investigate soil nutrient characteristics, 73 typical vineyards in Shanghai suburbs were selected for this study. The impacts of different planting areas, planting ages and grape varieties on soil characteristics were studied. The Agro Services International (ASI) analysis method was adopted to measure the levels of soil nutrients. The results indicated that soil nutrient characteristics varied greatly across the 73 selected vineyards in Shanghai suburbs. Planting area and planting age were the major factors that significantly affected soil nutrient characteristics. However, no significant differences were observed among the 5 major cultivated grape varieties. Significant differences in soil pH were only observed in different planting areas. Soil nutrients in the selected vineyards were mainly at a high level or extra-high level, which means that the current amount of fertilizer in these vineyards exceeds the actual demands of the grapevines and should be reduced. Meanwhile, the intermediate soil organic matter (OM) content indicated that more organic fertilizer should be applied to the soil in these vineyards. Optimized fertilization based on soil nutrient levels plays an essential role in sustaining production resources, increasing economic benefits and improving environmental conditions of vineyards.
