“…The implementation of chemical amelioration using phosphogypsum to prevent the salinisation of ordinary chernozem has led to improvements in the indicators of the soilabsorbing complex. It should be noted that this is an important factor in assessing the environmental safety of the impact of phosphogypsum on the development of plant communities, aligning with other studies [75]. In research by the authors of [76], one of the largest alluvial saline areas (Spain) was reclaimed by the application of phosphogypsum to reduce Na 1+ saturation.…”

The purpose of our research is to evaluate the agroecological condition of soils under long-term irrigation (over 50 years) and to improve existing measures to slow down degradation processes by introducing phosphogypsum. The possibility of simultaneously addressing the ecological issue of using large amounts of phosphogypsum waste and the agronomic characteristics of slowing or eliminating salinisation processes in irrigated soils has been studied and justified. The research methodology was based on the comparison of different meliorative doses of phosphogypsum under the following conditions: by the amount of exchangeable sodium that should displace calcium in the calculated soil layer; by the coagulation limit; and by the absorption norm and the corresponding amount of sodium coming with irrigation water. To determine water-soluble salts (anions, cations) and pH level, a water extract was utilized. Multi-year studies to determine the impact of phosphogypsum on irrigation-salinised soils with and without irrigation showed positive changes in the anion–cation composition of water extraction, resulting in a reduction in the degree of the salinity of these soils. It was established that in chernozem soils under irrigation, the sodium adsorption ratio decreases by 74.5% compared to the control indicators, and without irrigation, by 23%. The best results in the displacement of exchangeable sodium were observed when phosphogypsum was applied at a dose calculated by the coagulation limit without irrigation and with irrigation—by the absorption norm.

“…The regular gypsum positive effects include calcium and sulfur source in superficial and deeper soil profiles but also have positive effects on soil physical, chemical, and biological conditioning; reclaimed soils; reduced damage caused by subsoil acidity (exchangeable aluminum) and pollutants on plant growth; increased the abundance of soil microorganisms; improved nutrient redistribution and its plant-use-efficiency in soil profile; enhanced seedling, shoot, and root development; lower nutrient losses in agricultural biological waste composting; increased rainfall absorption; lower soil particle dispersion; improve soil stability; lower surface crust formation, runoff, and soil erosion (Ritchey et al, 1980;Ritchey et al, 1995;Toma et al, 1999;Martins et al, 2002;Soratto and Crusciol, 2008;Chen and Dick, 2011;Cañadas et al, 2014;Batte and Forster, 2015;Qayyum et al, 2017;Zoca and Penn, 2017;Bossolani et al, 2018;Cuervo-Alzate and Osorio, 2020;Qu et al, 2020;Charlo et al, 2022;Goiba et al, 2023;Garbowski et al, 2023;Jin et al, 2023;Li et al, 2023;Niaz et al, 2023;Outbakat et al 2023;Robinson et al, 2023;AbouRizk et al, 2024).

PRESENTATIONCollection "Agricultural sciences unveiled: exploring the dynamics of farming and sustainability": a work that has as its main focus a scientific discussion through various works that compose its chapters. The purpose of the Ebook is to explore different contents linked to environmental issues in 19 chapters, tracing a contemporary theme of sustainability and the direct action of human beings in the responsibility and creation of strategies for the development of the environment. The volume will address in a categorized and interdisciplinary way works, investigations, case reports and/or reviews that go through the various areas of the environment and sustainability.It is worth mentioning that sustainability is tied to the growing demand for global progress, with the emergence of the need to expand studies that present alternative uses of the present resources in the environment in a responsible manner, without compromising the benefits and systems involved. Seeking to minimize impacts, develop environmental responsibility and strengthen sustainable growth. Thinking about development allied to sustainability involves economic, social, and cultural aspects.In this way, the work "Agricultural sciences unveiled: exploring the dynamics of farming and sustainability"" presents the foundation of the theory obtained in practice by the authors of this e-book, several professors, academics, and researchers who have arduously developed their work that will be presented here in a manner concise and didactic. The importance of this space for scientific dissemination is evidence or commitment and the structure of Atena Editors that provides us with a consolidated and trustworthy platform for researchers to expose and disseminate their results.The authors hope to contribute with relevant content to provide technical, scientific, and constructive ass...

“…Phosphogypsum possesses physical and chemical characteristics that make it suitable for use as a soil amendment or agricultural fertilizer [ 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 ]. Studies have indicated that incorporating phosphogypsum into soil does not alter its acidity but enhances nutrient solubility [ 15 , 16 ], thereby facilitating deeper root penetration [ 17 , 18 ]. However, research on its impact on sandy soil remains limited.…”

Sandy soil covers a significant portion of Egypt’s total land area, representing a crucial agricultural resource for future food security and economic growth. This research adopts the hypothesis of maximizing the utilization of secondary products for soil improvement to reduce ecosystem pollution. The study focuses on assessing the impact of combining phosphogypsum and modified biochar as environmentally friendly soil amendments on loamy sand soil quality parameters such as soil organic carbon, cation exchange capacity, nutrient levels, and wheat yield. The treatments were T1: the recommended NPK fertilizer (control); T2: 2.5 kg phosphogypsum m−2 soil; T3: 2.5 kg rice straw biochar m−2 soil; T4: 2.5 kg cotton stalk biochar m−2 soil; T5: 2.5 kg rice-straw-modified biochar m−2 soil; T6: 2.5 kg cotton-stalk-modified biochar m−2 soil; and T7 to T10: mixed phosphogypsum and biochar treatments. The results revealed that the combined use of phosphogypsum and modified cotton stalk biochar (T10) significantly enhanced soil organic carbon (SOC) by 73.66% and 99.46% in both seasons, the soil available N both seasons by 130.12 and 161.45%, the available P by 89.49% and 102.02%, and the available K by 39.84 and 70.45% when compared to the control treatment. Additionally, this treatment led to the highest grain yield of wheat (2.72 and 2.92 Mg ha−1), along with a significant increase in straw yield (52.69% and 59.32%) compared to the control treatment. Overall, the findings suggest that the combined use of phosphogypsum and modified biochar, particularly cotton-stalk biochar, holds promise for improving loamy sand-soil quality and wheat productivity.
