“…Prakash et al [34] reported increase in rice yield on additions of calcium silicate (CS) @ 3 -4 t ha -1 in coastal and hilly soils of Karnataka. Yogendra et al [35], Jawahar et al [36], Nagula et al [37], Malav et al [38] and Ali et al [39] opined that application of silicon alone produced the highest yield in rice. Foliar spray at different concentration increased the grain yield.…”

This study wanted to clarify the impact of silicon (Si) fertilization on nutrient uptake, silicon use efficiency, yield and quality of rice and to detect the rate and mode of application of Si fertilizer in silicon deficient soil. The field experiment was conducted with ten treatment combinationsof100% NPK,100% NPK + potassium silicate (PS)@ 0.25%,0.50% and 1.0% Foliar spray (FS) at tillering stage,100% NPK + PS@ 0.25% ,0.50% and 1.0%FS at tillering and panicle initiation stages,100% NPK + PS@ 50,100 and 150 kg Si ha-1soil application (SA). Application of 50 kg Si ha-1 through PS recorded the highest grain (6183 kg ha-1) and straw (6740 kg ha-1) yield, and higher uptake of macronutrients (NP&K) in rice and it was on par with foliar spray of 1% Si sprayed at tillering stage. Silicon uptake increased linearly with Si levels and the maximum uptake was recorded with 150 kg Si ha-1 and foliar spray at 1% Si. Foliar spray recorded higher Si use efficiency compared to soil application. Rice grain quality viz., protein, amylose and carbohydrate were significantly influenced by silicon addition. The results proved that both foliar and soil application of Si through potassium silicate in sandy clay loam soil could enhance the rice yield, nutrient uptake and grain quality by means of improving nutrient use efficiency.

“…Higher plants govern primary production in terrestrial ecosystems utilizing the atmosphere's CO 2 , nevertheless, soil microbiota regulates carbon budgets via copious roles in soil carbon buildups thus amending nutrient availability and driving longevity and solidity of carbon pools [5,7]. Maneuverings of the agro-ecosystems are chief drivers of carbon cycling by changing microbial community structure [3,5,8,11]. Understanding of systematic management of soil carbon is a key task for predicting carbon dynamics under various management practices.…”

Less precipitation, high temperature, and minimal natural vegetation are characteristic of regions having an arid climate. The harsh environment massively destructs the soil structure of that area by burning soil organic carbon, leading to deteriorated soil nutritional quality, creating a significant threat to agricultural production and food security. Direct application of organic wastes not only substitutes lost organic carbon but also restores soil structure and fertility. This study was conducted to assess the impact of organic amendments, i.e., farm manure (FM), poultry manure (PM), molasses (MO), and Exo-Poly Saccharides (EPS) producing rhizobacterial strains i.e., M2, M19, M22 amalgams as treatments. To assess the impact of treatments on soil carbon and structure restoration to hold more water and nutrients, a 42-day incubation experiment using a completely randomized design (CRD) under the two-factor factorial arrangement was conducted. Macro aggregation (0.25 to >1 mm), carbon retention in macro aggregates, active carbon (dissolved organic carbon, a mineral-associated organic carbon, microbial biomass carbon), total organic carbon, the carbon mineralization activities, and water retention capacities were observed to be highest in soils that were treated with (FM + M2, FM + M22, PM + M19, and MO + M19). Finally, we conclude that organics mineralization by microbial actions releases organic glues that not only impart particle aggregation but also conserve organics as aggregate entrapped carbon. Amalgamated application of microbe–manure combinations directly impacts soil structure and organic carbon contents, but in an indirect scenario, it improves the fertility and productivity of the soil. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to use organic manures and microbes in combination to restore structurally degraded lands.
