“…Legume such as Sesbania may accumulate N through the N fixation process, thereby supplying N for the succeeding crop after it is tilled into soil [37,38]. Previous studies also found that green manuring with legumes and hairy vetch in precrops significantly increased N and P uptake in rice and oat [38,39]. In the present study, alkaline N and available P content in mudflat saline soil during 2-year experimental period increased with increasing tilled biomass of green manures.…”

Dairy manure or green manuring has been considered as popular organic amendment to cropland in many countries. However, whether dairy manure combined with green manuring can effectively amend mudflat saline soil remains unclear. This paper was one of first studies to fill this knowledge gap by investigating impact of dairy manure combined with green manuring on soil chemical properties of mudflat saline soil. Dairy manure was used by one-time input, with the rates of 0, 30, 75, 150, and 300 t ha−1, to amend mudflat saline soil. Ryegrass,Sesbania, and ryegrass were chosen as green manures for three consecutive seasons, successively planted, and tilled, and maize was chosen as a test crop. The results indicated that one-time application of dairy manure enhanced fertility of mudflat saline soil and supported growth of ryegrass as the first season green manure. By the cycles of the green manuring, it rapidly improved the chemical properties of mudflat saline soil by decreasing soil salinity and pH and increasing soil organic carbon and available N and P, which promoted growth of maize. Dairy manure combined with green manuring can be applied for mudflat saline soil amendment, which provides an innovative solution for mudflat saline soil reclamation, dairy manure disposal, and resource recycling.

“…The lowest leaf area index (4.26) was obtained from 75 % barley: 25 % hairy vetch mixture (Table 2). Tarui et al (2013) have reported that the leaf area index of 50 % oat:50 % hairy vetch mixture was 7.2 and this value was higher than pure sowings of hairy vecth (5.7) and oat (2.9).…”

“…Especially, as the ratio of hairy vetch in the barley-hairy vetch and wheathairy vetch mixtures decreased, the light interception also tended to be decreased (Table 2). Tarui et al (2013) have reported that oat increased light interception in hairy vetchoat mixture.…”

This experiment was conducted to determine the effects of mixture rates of hairy vetch with oat, barley and wheat on dry matter yield and its quality and to determine the suitable mixture when grown as catch crop at Uludag University, Faculty of Agriculture, Agricultural Research and Application Center, Bursa Turkey during 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 growing seasons. The experimental plant entries were Menemen-79 variety of hairy vetch, Faikbey cultivar of oat, Akhisar-98 cultivar of barley and Flamura cultivar of wheat. Nine mixtures (25 % oat:75 % hairy vetch, 50 % oat:50 % hairy vetch, 75 % oat:25 % hairy vetch, 25 % barley:75 % hairy vetch, 50 % barley:50 % hairy vetch, 75 % barley:25 % hairy vetch, 25 % wheat:75 % hairy vetch, 50 % wheat:50 % hairy vetch, 75 % wheat:25 % hairy vetch) were used. Several parameters such as dry matter yield, leaf area index, light interception, crude protein content and yield; ADF (acid detergent fiber) and NDF (neutral detergent fiber) contents and relative feed value have been examined in the experiment. The highest dry matter yield was obtained from the mixtures of 50 % oat:50 % hairy vetch (12 040 kg ha -1 ) and 75 % oat:25 % hairy vetch (11 748 kg ha -1 ). According to the two-year results, the higher and quality hay yield (low in ADF and NDF values, high in relative feed value) was produced at 50 % oat:50 % hairy vetch mixture, and this mixture have been proposed to the experimental conditions due to its suitability.

“…Other plants growing in close association with P-mobilizing plants confer additional benefits through intercropping or undersowing, and may also increase access to sparingly-soluble P (Li et al 2007). Cereal-legume mixtures are among the most widely used and studied (Tarui et al 2013), due to both their ecological importance and to the availability of practical management expertise with these combinations, because of their use in fodder production. An important benefit of this association is increased N-fixation by the legume driven by the Ndemand of the cereal (Høgh- Jensen and Schjørring 1997), N transfer (Brophy et al 1987), and facilitative interactions via root exudates, as detected between Zea maize and Vicia faba (Li et al 2016).…”

Hidden miners – the roles of cover crops and soil microorganisms in phosphorus cycling through agroecosystems

et al. 2018

Background Phosphorus (P) is a limiting nutrient in many agroecosystems and costly fertilizer inputs can cause negative environmental impacts. Cover crops constitute a promising management option for sustainable intensification of agriculture. However, their interactions with the soil microbial community, which is a key driver of P cycling, and their effects on the following crop, have not yet been systematically assessed. Scope We conducted a meta-analysis of published field studies on cover crops and P cycling, focusing on plantmicrobe interactions. Conclusions We describe several distinct, simultaneous mechanisms of P benefits for the main crop. Decomposition dynamics, governed by P concentration, are critical for the transfer of P from cover crop residues to the main crop. Cover crops may enhance the soil microbial community by providing a legacy of increased mycorrhizal abundance, microbial biomass P, and phosphatase activity. Cover crops are generally most effective in systems low in available P, and may access 'unavailable' P pools. However, their effects on P availability are difficult to detect by standard soil P tests, except for increases after the use of Lupinus sp. Agricultural management (i.e. cover crop species selection, tillage, fertilization) can improve cover crop effects. In summary, cover cropping has the potential to tighten nutrient cycling in agricultural systems under different conditions, increasing crop P nutrition and yield.
