“…Soil nutrient content under deep plough tillage at deeper soil both were higher than that of the rotary tillage. It might be due to the fact that deep plowing tillage mixes the basal fertilizer to deeper soil layer (Pang et al 2016). On the other hand, our results suggested that the deep plowing tillage could intercept significantly more straw N, indicating that the deep plowing tillage could mix straw into the deeper soil layer, making soil nutrient well distributed at different depths (Gao et al 2000).…”

“…In the third year, TS had 26.8% higher grain yield than RS, the possible reason might be that deep plough tillage can significantly improve the soil structure, break the plough pan, and promote the root grow and nutrient absorption (Izumi et al 2009;Hou et al 2012;Jiang et al 2012). The result clearly indicated that the rotation tillage or deep plough tillage every few years is an effective way to eliminate the adverse effect of monoculture (Tang et al 2013;Pang et al 2016). Duan et al (2014) concluded from 15 years' data from northern and central China that there is a consistent increase in NUE associated with the applied residue for wheat-maize rotation.…”

“…Compared to conventional agricultural practice, such strategy is useful for improving soil physical characteristics, increasing soil fertility indicators (Powlson et al 2011;Tian et al 2012;Zhu et al 2014;Nie et al 2015), as well as enhancing the crop productivity and nutrient utilization efficiency (Zhao and Chen 2008;Chen et al 2015). However, inappropriate methods of straw incorporation could deteriorate soil structure and unbalance nutrients distribution (Kong 2014;Pang et al 2016). These could limit the action of roots (Guan et al 2014), which is not beneficial for growing winter wheat.…”

Straw return is an important management tool for tackling and promoting soil nutrient conservation and improving crop yield in Huang-Huai-Hai Plain, China. Although the incorporation of maize straw with deep plowing and rotary tillage practices are widespread in the region, only few studies have focused on rotation tillage. To determine the effects of maize straw return on the nitrogen (N) efficiency and grain yield of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), we conducted experiments in this region for 3 years. Five treatments were tested: (i) 3-year rotary tillage with straw removed (RT); (ii) 3-year deep plowing tillage with straw removed (DT); (iii) 3-year rotary tillage with straw return (RS); (iv) 3-year deep plowing tillage with straw return (DS); (v) rotary tillage and deep plowing interval of 2 years with straw return (TS). Treatments with straw return increased kernels no. ear -1 , thousand-kernel Weight (TKW), grain yields, ratio of dry matter accumulation post-anthesis, and nitrogen (N) efficiency whereas reduced the ears no. ha -1 in the 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 growing seasons. Compared with the rotary tillage, deep plowing tillage significantly increased the grain yield, yield components, total dry matter accumulation, and N efficiency in 2013-2014. RS had significantly higher straw N distribution, soil inorganic nitrogen content, and soil enzymes activities in the 0-10 cm soil layer compared with the DS and TS. However, significantly lower values were observed in the 10-20 and 20-30 cm soil layers. TS obtained approximately equal grain yield as DS, and it also reduced the resource costs. Therefore, we conclude that TS is the most economical method for increasing grain yield and N efficiency of winter wheat in Huang-Huai-Hai Plain.The Huang-Huai-Hai Plain is one of the most important agricultural regions in China. It produces more than 60% of China's winter wheat (Man et al. 2015). The average yield of winter wheat is approximately 5 540 kg ha -1 , and yields in excess of 9 000 kg ha -1 have also been reported in the region (NBSC 2013). However, the output of grain production in this region was based on the higher rate of fertilizer application (Jin et al. 2012;Chen et al. 2014). Although the use of fertilizer has temporarily increased the yield, its excessive application has brought a series of environmental problems, such as water pollution, field greenhouse gas emission, and

“…Tan (2008) found that the application of potassium fertilizer could significantly increase maize yield through 13 consecutive years of potash positioning tests. Some studies have shown that the interaction among straw return and nitrogen fertilizer could effectively improve soil physical properties and maize grain yield (Pang et al, 2016;Zheng et al, 2017).…”

Exploring the effects of straw return (ST) and potassium fertilizer on soil structure, spring maize (Zea mays L.) root growth, K-absorption efficiency and yield is essential for devising optimized straw return and potassium fertilizer management practices to increase grain yield for food security. In this study, two straw return levels used were straw return , no straw return and two potassium application levels used were 6K (90 kg/ha potassium application), no potassium (0K). Analyzed the effects of the above four treatments on soil structure, spring maize root indicators, K-absorption efficiency and yield in three ecological regions in two years. The results showed that the effect of straw return on soil structure and root growth was better than that of applying potassium fertilizer. The effect of potassium fertilizer application on maize grain yield and K-absorption efficiency was better than that of straw return. The impact of the interaction was better than straw return or the application potassium fertilizer alone. Straw return improved the effects of potassium fertilizer on soil bulk density, soil porosity, spring maize root length, root surface area, root volume, maize grain K-absorption efficiency and yield by 3.99%-7.27%, 3.89%-7.40%, 1.35%-71.01%, 19.16%-42.45%, 10.49%-22.73%, 13.57%-19.67% and 4.43%-7.05%, respectively. Therefore, the interaction of straw return and potassium fertilizer was the best measure to maintain high and stable maize yield, increasing K-absorption efficiency and improving the nutrient resource management of straw and potassium fertilizer, which was appropriate for spring maize planting. INTRODUCTIONMaize (Zea mays L.) is the largest grain crop in China and contributes more than 80% of China's grain production, which is the main force and the key to guarantee food security (Zheng, 2012). The production of maize in northwestern China was

“…Straw return is a best management practice for tackling and helping soil nutrient conservation and improving crop yield; it also decreases soil degradation, improving soil physical characteristics, and enhancing soil fertility indices [9]. However, unsuitable methods of the straw application might depreciate soil quality and unbalance nutrients distribution [10]. Organic manure contains essential macronutrients nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and micronutrients such as calcium, magnesium, sulfur, manganese, copper, zinc, chlorine, boron, iron, and molybdenum [11].…”

Aims: To investigate the effect of silicon (Si) fertilizer and Si fertilizer with straw return in potassium (K) and maize grain yield. Methods: In 2018 and 2019, two field experiments were established in Nong’an county, Jilin province. Four treatments were arranged in a randomized block design: JS3 (straw return + Si), WS3 (no straw return + Si), JS0 (straw return + no Si) and WS0 (no straw return + no Si). Results: In comparison with WS3, the average soil available K for WS0 was 22.1% lower. Similarly, compared with JS3, the average soil available K for WS3 was even decreased by 3.1%. The plots amended with Si fertilizer (15.9% WS3) significantly increased K uptake than that of WS0, and the total uptake of K under JS3 increased by 7.5% compared with that under WS3. The total dry matter and grain yield were significantly higher under WS3, which increased by 6.5% and 4.8% respectively, and JS3 significantly outperformed WS3 by 2.9% and 1.3% for total dry matter and grain yield. Conclusions: Our results indicate that the application of Si fertilizer improves K availability, uptake and crop yield, and the use of Si fertilizer with straw return sustainably improves K release to meet crop requirements while increasing crop productivity.
