“…Thus, the drainage systems in variable landuse systems along with the depth of the soil sample significantly contributed towards the variation. Irrespective of the land use, the highest OC content was observed at the surface due to the deposition of litter and organic residues and that decreased with depth [37]. A similar trend of a decrease in the OC content of soil with depth was reported [38].…”

“…It is also relative to fact that changes in land use alter the quantity of inputs in the form of crop residues, along with the application of lime that enhanced the pH of soils, thereby decreasing soluble forms of Zn and their availability in soils [48]. Similar results were presented by [27,37]. Similarly, the availability of Zn and other micronutrients is directly associated with the pH of the soil as it governs the chemical forms of soil-resident compounds [49].…”

“…The variability in the available nutrients is also associated with changes in microbial activity, which affects the release of labile-organic compounds and nutrients in soil [39]. Similar results were presented by [27,37]. However, the decline in other Aridisols might be relative to intensive cultivation, resulting in the continuous exclusion of crop residues and thereby leading to a nutrient decline in soil [40,41].…”

“…Overall, the highest Mn content (4.10 mg kg −1 ) was under Entisols, while the least (3.82 mg kg −1 ) was under Aridisol. The higher Mn content might be related to the higher status of organic residues in soils of Entisol that results in the protection of micronutrients against the oxidation and precipitation into bound forms and also supply soluble chelating agents for the solubilization of micronutrients [27,37]. The greater content of Mn under Entisols and Inceptisols might be relative to the sensitivity of Mn to change to a reduced state from an oxidized state, or vice versa, with variations in soil temperatures and moisture regimes that enlighten the wide variability in DTPA-Mn among different groups of soils [11].…”

The agricultural production in Punjab has increased manifold that aggravated the deficiencies of micronutrients in soils and plants. The availability of soil micronutrients in different soil orders depends upon the soil mineralogy, topography, climatic conditions and cropping sequences. Hence, to study the pedospheric variations of DTPA-extractable micronutrients, viz., zinc (Zn), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn) and copper (Cu), in three prominent soil orders of Punjab, a total of 144 depth-wise soil samples were collected from four major land-use systems (cultivated, horticulture, forest and pasture lands). The DTPA extractable micronutrients varied from 1.74–2.81, 1.83–2.82 and 1.81–2.80 for Zn; 5.3–6.8, 5.6–6.9, 4.3–6.3 for Fe; 5.1–7.8, 5.5–7.9, 5.4–7.5 for Mn; and 0.84–1.40, 0.93–1.68, 0.87–1.65 for Cu in soil orders Aridisol, Entisol and Inceptisol, respectively. The average content of DTPA-extractable micronutrients was highest under soil order Entisol followed by Inceptisol and Aridisol. The content of micronutrients showed a declining trend with increase in soil depth in all orders. Among different soil properties, the pH and EC showed significantly negative correlation, however, OC had non-significant correlation with DTPA-extractable micronutrients in soils. Therefore, it is concluded that parent material, land use systems and soil depth affected the distribution of DTPA extractable micronutrients in different soil orders.

“…Among the seasons, least SOC was observed during summer season (0.47 and 0.47%) and the highest SOC was observed during autumn season (0.55 and 0.57%) in 2021 and 2022, respectively. These findings were also supported by earlier workers Kaur and Bhat (2017); Bhople and Sharma (2020). Increased carbon addition through litterfall, rhizodepositions and increased root biomass addition, notably in poplar, may be responsible for the significantly higher organic carbon in treebased systems.…”

Background: In order to support livelihoods, enhance food security, restore ecosystem services, and reduce pressure on forests, soil fertility can be improved by utilizing alternative land-use systems, such as agroforestry. Methods: The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of different agroforestry systems on soil chemical properties and nutrient availability (macro and micro) during different seasons in Hisar, Haryana. Different systems include Poplar (Populus deltoides), Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus tereticornis), Melia (Melia composita), Shisham (Dalbergia sissoo) based agroforestry system (Cowpea-Wheat) and sole cropping of Cowpea-Wheat (as control). Soil samples were collected from 0-15 and 15-30 cm of soil depth during five seasons i.e., winter, spring, summer, rainy and autumn. Result: Soil EC, SOC and available macronutrients and micronutrients were significantly affected by the depth of sampling, systems and seasons while soil pH was not significantly affected by seasons. Lower soil pH and EC was observed from agroforestry systems as compared to sole cropping. Soil Organic Carbon, availability of N, P, K and S was significantly higher under tree based systems as compared to control. Maximum DTPA extractable Mn, Zn and Cu was observed under poplar based system while highest DTPA extractable Fe was observed under Melia based system during both the years. Significantly higher SOC and nutrient availability was observed during autumn, rainy and spring seasons as compared to winter and summer seasons, while reverse trend was observed for soil pH and EC among the seasons. Soil Organic Carbon, availability of macro and micronutrients decreased with increase in soil depth. Overall, the soil chemical properties and nutrient status of soil were comparatively better under tree based systems than sole cropping of Cowpea-Wheat.
