Soil acidity is one of the most common problems in cultivating plants in the open field. Dolomite enriched with nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium (trade name Fertdolomite: 24% CaO + 16% MgO + 3% N + 2.5% P2O5 + 3% K2O) was applied in autumn of 2011 in four rates (0 t*ha-1 , 3.56 t*ha-1 , 7.14 t*ha-1 and 14.25 t*ha-1). Aim of this experiment was testing 5-year residual impact of Fertdolomit on acid soil on maize and winter wheat grain yield and quality, as well as on changes of soil properties. Five year after application, Fertdolomit has shown positive long-term effect on soil pH and hydrolytic acidity. Under Fertdolomit treatments, in 2012/2013 wheat yield was significantly increased by 22%, in 2014/2015 by 25% and in 2016/2017 by 32% in comparison with control treatment. Application of highest Fertdolomite rate significantly increased wheat grain quality (protein and wet gluten content) while impact on thousand grain weight, hectoliter mass and starch content were insignificant during all growing season. Response of maize to Fertdolomite application was considerably lower compared to wheat. Maize yield increased only for 11% in both tested years (2014 and 2016), without any significant difference for grain quality.

“…Moreover, ameliorative P fertilization has been found useful for increasing yields, but these effects are generally lower than the combined effects of fertilization and liming [38]. The positive effects of liming and P fertilization on yields of maize in the temperate region of the Balkans were also found by earlier studies [33,39]. All these results indicate the necessity for liming and phosphorus mobilization in these soils, and to strive for the improved and better organized liming management in the region.…”

“…Contrary to previous findings, Crusciol et al [34] found a significant increase in soil organic matter (SOM) after the application of lime and N fertilizer. The enhanced effect of liming on SOM content was found up to a depth of 0.10 m, and at the highest lime rate, the positive effect of N fertilization on SOM content propagated up to a depth of 0.4 m. There were no statistically significant changes in SOM content with the addition of 5, 10 and 15 t•ha −1 of dolomite in the Slavonia region of Croatia [33]. The impacts of liming on soil carbon storage are variable and strongly related to soil type, land use, climate, and multiple management factors [15].…”

“…The increase in base saturation with the application of 1.5 t•ha −1 of lime in the study of De Moraes et al [31] was higher than that of the present study. In the temperate conditions of the Balkan Peninsula, Kovačević and Rastija [33] reported increases of pH in H 2 O of 1.16 units (4.50 to 5.68) with the addition of 5 t•ha −1 of dolomite. However, these higher doses were added for a larger pH increase, in order to increase the amount of available phosphorus in the soil.…”

Lime application combined with complementary sustainable management practices increases crop yields, but liming is only modestly applied in Serbia. This study investigated the influence of liming (1000 kg/ha) combined with the common application of mineral fertilizers on maize yield and the chemical properties of pseudogley soil. The experiment was conducted near Kraljevo, Western Serbia, on the maize hybrid ZP 606 sown in a two-year monoculture. The experiment had three treatments: fertilizer, fertilizer + lime, and a control treatment. The soil is acid, poor in humus, and contains an increased content of mobile aluminum. There was a significant increase in yield under the fertilizer and lime + fertilizer treatments, compared to the control. The yield of maize in the limed treatment was 4.4–9% higher than in the fertilizer treatment. The positive effects of liming on soil are related to an increase in pH, base saturation, and available phosphorus, and a decrease in available aluminum. In the fertilizer treatment, there was a small decrease in pH and base saturation, whereas the amount of aluminum remained high, indicating that the further application of fertilizers without lime can increase aluminum content and foster its toxicity. The long-term sustainability of maize production in Serbia should include liming as a regular management practice on pseudogley soil, with the utilization of smaller doses of lime because of the potential CO2 effects. To improve soil health, food, and environmental security, and to incorporate new crops, developing a framework promoting liming as a sustainable management practice is of high importance.

“…Such events have resulted in severe impacts across the continent. For example, the events of 2012 and 2018 led to extremely low crop yields (Kovačević et al, 2013;Beillouin et al, 2020), which resulted in agricultural insured losses of USD 2 billion in Serbia in 2012 (Zurovec et al, 2015), while in 2018, financial support was required by farmers from governments in Sweden (EUR 116 million), Germany (EUR 340 million) and Poland (EUR 116 million) (D'Agostino, 2018). Such events, characterised by the combination of multiple drivers causing extreme impacts, are known as compound events (Zscheischler et al, 2018(Zscheischler et al, , 2020Bevacqua et al, 2021).…”

Abstract. Long-duration, sub-seasonal dry spells in combination with high temperature extremes during summer have led to extreme impacts on society and ecosystems in the past. Such events are expected to become more frequent due to increasing temperatures as a result of anthropogenic climate change. However, there is little information on how long-duration dry and hot spells are represented in global climate models (GCMs). In this study, we evaluate 33 CMIP5 (coupled model intercomparison project 5) GCMs in their representation of long-duration dry spells and temperatures during dry spells. We define a dry spell as a consecutive number of days with a daily precipitation of less than 1 mm. CMIP5 models tend to underestimate the persistence of dry spells in northern Europe, while a large variability exists between model estimates in central and southern Europe, where models have contrasting biases. Throughout Europe, we also find a large spread between models in their representation of temperature extremes during dry spells. In central and southern Europe this spread in temperature extremes between models is related to the representation of dry spells, where models that produce longer dry spells also produce higher temperatures, and vice versa. Our results indicate that this variability in model estimates is due to model differences and not internal variability. At latitudes between 50–60∘ N, the differences in the representation of persistent dry spells are strongly related to the representation of persistent anticyclonic systems, such as atmospheric blocking and subtropical ridges. Furthermore, models simulating a higher frequency of anticyclonic systems than ERA5 also simulate temperatures in dry spells that are between 1.4, and 2.8 K warmer than models with a lower frequency in these areas. Overall, there is a large spread between CMIP5 models in their representation of long-duration dry and hot events that is due to errors in the representation of large-scale anticyclonic systems in certain parts of Europe. This information is important to consider when interpreting the plausibility of future projections from climate models and highlights the potential value that improvements in the representation of anticyclonic systems may have for the simulation of impactful hazards.
