“…Organic matter makes the soil loose and crumb so that aeration and thinning are better and easier to penetrate the roots of plants. Previous research shows that providing solid compost or manure can increase plant height, number of flowers, number of pods, number of nodules, dry weight of stover, root dry weight, protein content, and seed fat soybean plants (Endriani et al 2021;Latawiec et al 2021;Zumpf et al 2021) Kinds of rhizobacteria inoculation resulted in the same seed weight, pods number, and pods weight of soybean on marginal soil. The number of pods is not followed by seed formation or filling because of many empty pods, as seen from the low seed weight.…”

Soybean is one of the leading commodities that is being developed in Indonesia. Today, the increase of soybean needs is not followed by its production capacity. Meanwhile, the area of productive land for soybean farming is decreasing due to land conversion for non-agricultural needs. One effort that can be an alternative is using marginal land by applying appropriate technology such as manure and biofertilizer. So that, it was necessary to know the composition of manure and biofertilizer, which was appropriate to increase the growth and yield of soybean plants on marginal soils. Complete Randomized Design was used in the experiment with two factors. The first factor was the ratio of manure: soil (v:v) there are 0:1, 1:1, 1:2, and 2:1. The second factor was rhizobacteria inoculum, which included without rhizobacteria, exogenous rhizobacteria, and indigenous rhizobacteria. Results showed that the composition of the best planting medium for growth and yield of soybean is manure: soil 1: 1 and 1: 2. The source of the rhizobacteria inoculum is not a significant difference to the soybean’s growth and yield. Manure and soil 1: 2 with indigenous inoculum tended to produce the best total number of nodules and effective root nodules. Manure and soil 1:1 with indigenous inoculum produce the best of seeds number. Manure and soil 1:2 or 2:1 with exogenous inoculum tended to produce the best seed index weight (g per 100 seeds).

“…In addition to their potential as bioenergy producers, some of these commodities, such as oil palm, coconut, cotton, cassava, sugar cane, and sago, are also sources of food and feed commodities. The development of food source commodities as raw materials for bioenergy is seen as unethical because it competes with food and feed ingredients (33).…”

Sustainable agriculture is the management and conservation of natural resources, oriented to technological and institutional changes carried out in such a way as to ensure the fulfillment and satisfaction of human needs in a sustainable manner for present and future generations. Food independence is the ability of the state and nation to produce diverse food from within the country which can ensure the fulfillment of sufficient food needs. Basically the food must be available at all times and to be able to meet the criteria for food security. Food availability is determined by 3 main aspects, namely production (quantity), distribution (accessibility), and consumption (nutritious and safe). In addition, renewable energy can come from agricultural materials. The energy crisis that occurs today is caused by an imbalance in the demand for energy that continues to increase with energy supply that is dependent on non-renewable fossil fuels, such as oil, coal and natural gas. This dependence is a serious threat to the world because of the known depletion of petroleum reserves, the instability of oil prices, and the pollution of greenhouse gases due to the burning of fossil fuels. The energy crisis will result in losses, both material and immaterial, such as loss of investor and consumer confidence, hampered creativity, inefficiency, and the risk of social unrest. The solution that is usually offered to overcome the energy crisis that occurs is the development and use of alternative energy sources, one of which is biofuels or biofuels.

“…Switchgrass production can result in favorable changes to soil, for example, soil C accumulation, soil N maintenance, and increased microbial diversity, biomass, and activities (Dirks & Jackson, 2020; Jesus et al., 2016; Li et al., 2022; Liebig et al., 2005). Willow production generally boasts similar benefits, and its production has often been used to control soil erosion and N leaching (Ferrarini et al., 2017; Volk et al., 2006; Zumpf et al., 2021).…”

The production of bioproduct feedstocks such as switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) and willow (Salix spp.) on degraded lands provides an opportunity to grow dedicated bioenergy crops with the potential to capture and store carbon in the soil while reducing competition with land for food production. However, how the production of these crops alters plant–soil–microbe interactions that govern soil C accumulation in highly degraded soil is underexplored. The objectives of this study were to examine select biological and chemical properties related to stable soil organic matter (SOM) production from the growth of switchgrass and willow on marginal soil over two growing seasons and whether biochar amendment can positively affect these parameters. To address our objectives, paired former surface mined lands and non‐mine impacted marginal agriculture sites were selected across West Virginia, USA, and biochar and unamended control treatments were imposed. Through the first two growing seasons, microbial activity and demand for carbon (C) increased and was accompanied by a shift in extracellular enzyme investment for decomposition‐associated enzymes. Mineral‐associated organic matter C increased over the two growing seasons, and this increase was greater in the mine sites compared to the agriculture sites. Compared to each site's previous land use, C losses were observed under bioproduct systems in the agriculture, but not the mine sites. Biochar amendments did not impact microbial activity but did increase the C:N of SOM. Overall, our results suggest that the early growth of switchgrass and willow can result in C accumulation in marginal and highly degraded lands.
