Abstract:The rice production system in China is facing challenges, including declining soil fertility and a stagnant rice yield. This study aimed to test whether integrating the return of straw to fields with less power puddling could simultaneously enhance soil fertility and rice yields. Therefore, field experiments were conducted in Heilongjiang Province, a key rice-growing region in China, from 2017 to 2021, using three different planting methods: control group (CK), straw return (SR) and straw return integrated wit… Show more
