“…Furthermore, microbial biomass C for the conventional tillage treatment was low and of a comparable magnitude to other Mediterranean vineyards with tilled soils (Smith et al, 2008;Steenwerth and Belina, 2008a;Morlat and Chaussod, 2008;Lagomarsino et al, 2011;Peregrina et al, 2012b). Therefore, a positive consequence of the SOC increment under cover crops is the enhancement of soil microbiological properties; SOC increase can explain this improvement as the SOC provides the principal substrates for the soil microorganisms.…”

In vineyards in Spain, tillage and semiarid Mediterranean climatic conditions accelerate organic matter loss from the soil. Cover crops are a conservation management practice that can provoke changes in soil quality which requires evaluation. Stratification ratios of soil properties such as soil organic C and labile C fractions have been proposed for the assessment of soil quality under different soil management systems. Our objective was to study the effect of different cover crop management on various soil parameters and their stratification ratios. We evaluated three different soil managements in a Typic Haploxerept from NE Spain: conventional tillage (CT); 5‐y continuous cover crop of resident vegetation (RV); and 4‐y continuous cover crop of Festuca longifolia Thuill., followed by 1‐y Bromus catharticus L. after resowing (BV). We monitored soil organic C, particulate organic C, water soluble C, potentially mineralizable N, microbial biomass C, β‐glucosidase and urease enzymatic activities, and water stable aggregates at 0–2.5, 2.5–5, 5–15, 15–25, and 25–45 cm soil depths. We calculated soil depth stratification ratios of those soil properties. Resident cover crop increased microbiological properties, labile C fractions, and aggregation with respect to conventional tillage at 0–2.5 and 2.5–5 cm soil depths. However, for Bromus cover crop the same soil properties were lower than for the resident cover crop at 0–2.5 cm depth. Stratification ratios of β‐glucosidase and urease enzymatic activities, and particulate organic C showed a higher sensitivity than other soil properties; therefore, they would be the best indicators for soil quality assessment in semiarid Mediterranean vineyards.

“…There are several uses for SMS: as a source of lignocellulosic enzymes, animal feed, energy feedstock, dye decolorization, biosorbent of inorganic and organic contaminants, and biodegradation and bioremediation of organopollutants, including pesticides, in soils [ 27 ]. The application of SMS to a soil with low OM content is a way of valorizing this residue, and this practice could have positive effects on the soil microbial communities responsible for preserving soil properties [ 28 ]. SMS application increases OM content and improves soil fertility and structure, so it may be considered a good strategy for rehabilitating soil quality [ 29 ].…”

Intensive crop production involves a high consumption of pesticides. This is a cause of major environmental concern because the presence of pesticides in water is becoming increasingly common. Physicochemical methods based on soil modification with organic residues have been developed to enhance the immobilization and/or degradation of pesticides in agricultural soils, which may control both the diffuse and the point pollution of soils and waters. This review summarizes the influence of spent mushroom substrate (SMS) on the environmental fate of pesticides when both are simultaneously applied in agriculture. The processes of adsorption, leaching and dissipation of these compounds in SMS-amended soils were evaluated at laboratory and field scale. Relationships were established between the experimental parameters obtained and the properties of the soils, the SMS, and the pesticides in order to determine the effect that the application of SMS in agricultural soils has on the environmental impact of pesticides. Accordingly, this review highlights the use of SMS as a strategy for the prevention and/or control of soil and water contamination by pesticides to strike a balance between agricultural development and the use of these compounds.

“…Mushroom production generates 170000 t of SMS per year (MAGRAMA, 2015). SMS has a high content of OM and nutrients, and can be used as an amendment to improve soil properties and quality (Brunetti et al, 2009;Peregrina et al, 2012). Furthermore, due to its high OM content, SMS could be a useful tool to control the behaviour of pesticides in soils modified with this residue.…”
