免耕轮作对旱作区土壤水热动态及速效养分含量的影响

免耕轮作对土壤性质有明显改善作用。在免耕秸秆覆盖基础上进行燕麦、玉米、大豆3种作物轮作2个周期的试验研究。结果表明,免耕秸秆覆盖结合不同作物轮作能调节土壤水热环境,增加土壤速效养分含量。土壤贮水量在不同处理间总体表现为免耕留高茬覆盖(NHS)免耕留低茬覆盖(NLS)免耕留高茬(NH)免耕留低茬(NL)常规翻耕(T),3种轮作方式中均以燕麦-大豆-玉米方式最高。轮作2个周期后NHS、NLS、NH、NL分别较T土壤贮水量在作物苗期增加了16.24%、12.16%、8.75%、5.56%,可见免耕覆盖能明显提高土壤水分蓄储能力。土壤温度在0~5 cm土层受外界环境影响最大;免耕覆盖在低温时起"保温作用",能提高土壤温度1.4~2.4℃;高温时起"降温作用",能降低土壤温度1.8~3.4℃;秸秆覆盖后土壤温度日变化平缓。同时免耕结合轮作处理能不同程度增加土壤有机质及速效养分含量,说明免耕轮作在该地区能较大程度的改善土壤性质,为提高作物产量提供了基础和有效保证。     

轮作条件下免耕对黄土高原旱作土壤水分入渗特性的影响

为明确免耕轮作对旱作农田土壤水分入渗时空特征的影响,2005-2010年,在内蒙古清水河县进行了3种轮作模式(燕麦-大豆-玉米,大豆-玉米-燕麦,玉米-燕麦-大豆)下免耕留低茬(NL)、免耕留高茬(NH)、免耕留低茬覆盖(NLS)、免耕留高茬覆盖(NHS)和常规耕作(T)5种耕作方式对土壤水分入渗特性影响的研究。结果表明:免耕、轮作,特别是两者的叠加效应能明显提高土壤入渗能力,其中免耕结合燕麦-大豆-玉米模式对土壤入渗性能的改善作用最好。当0～20cm土壤质量含水率较高(低)时,土壤水分初始入渗率较低(高),而土壤水分稳定入渗率与质量含水率呈相同变化趋势,且随土层加深,土壤水分稳定入渗率整体呈降低趋势。轮作2个周期后NL、NH、NLS和NHS分别较T,土壤初始入渗率降低了18.60%、24.93%、27.31%和29.95%,土壤稳定入渗率提高了22.22%、34.61%、82.05%和104.70%。可见免耕轮作能明显改善土壤水分入渗特性。

通过设置在江苏省句容农科所的田间定位试验研究长期免耕及施用有机肥料对土壤微生物生物量碳、氮、磷的影响。结果表明 :经过 1 6年 32茬稻—麦水旱轮作后 ,表土层 ( 0～ 5cm)土壤微生物生物量碳、氮、磷含量比亚表层 ( 5～ 1 0cm)分别高 2 7.5 %、43.6%和1 1 %。与常规耕翻相比长期免耕处理表土层土壤微生物生物量碳、氮含量分别增加了2 5 .4%和 45 .4% ,而微生物生物量磷无明显变化规律 ;亚表层的土壤微生物生物量碳、氮、磷免耕与耕翻两种耕作方式间的差异不显著。尽管各施肥处理施用的氮、磷、钾数量完全相等 ,但土壤微生物生物量碳、氮、磷的含量却因肥料种类的不同而异。综合 0～ 5和 5～ 1 0cm土层 ,微生物生物量碳、磷为 :猪粪 化肥 >秸秆 化肥 >绿肥 化肥 >化肥 >不施肥 ,微生物生物量氮则为 :猪粪 化肥 >绿肥 化肥 >秸秆 化肥 >化肥 >不施肥。相关分析结果显示 ,土壤微生物生物量碳、氮与土壤有机碳、土壤全氮和土壤碱解氮之间均呈极显著的正相关 ,表明其与土壤肥力关系密切 ,可作为评价土壤肥力性状的生物学指标     

保护性耕作对小麦-土壤系统综合效应研究

采用长期定位试验与短期田间试验相结合的方法,通过室内化验分析和数理统计,研究了河南省不同土壤类型区保护性耕作对土壤理化性质、土壤微生物生物量碳氮及小麦(Triticum aestivum L.)籽粒产量和产量构成因素的影响。结果表明,与传统耕作相比,保护性耕作显著提高土壤有机质、碱解氮、有效磷及交换性钾含量,分别提高24.8%、14.3%、7.8%和24.8%;而对小麦增产效果并不显著。4种不同保护性耕作方式下,免耕、浅耕相比旋耕、深耕,提高小麦穗数15.0%～32.2%,提高穗粒数2.6%～12.6%,但4种处理间小麦千粒重及籽粒产量效果无显著差异;免耕、浅耕较旋耕、深耕可以一定程度上提高苗期和灌浆期土壤含水率、以及土壤碱解氮和有效磷,并显著提高小麦不同生育时期的土壤微生物生物量碳氮。免耕与浅耕是较为适宜河南省小麦生产及土壤可持续利用的保护性耕作方式。     

秸秆还田和耕作方式对花生土壤微生物量、酶活性和产量的影响

通过两年的田间小区定位试验,研究免耕无秸秆还田(RN)、常规翻耕无秸秆还田(RS)、垄耕无秸秆还田(RD)、免耕秸秆还田(TN)、常规翻耕秸秆还田(TS)、垄耕秸秆还田(TD)6种耕作方式对科尔沁风沙地花生耕层土壤微生物量、土壤酶活性和产量的影响,探究适合辽西风沙半干旱条件下花生高产的耕作方式。结果表明:相同耕作条件下秸秆还田处理组土壤微生物量碳、氮、磷含量和土壤酶活性均高于无秸秆还田处理组,秸秆还田能显著提高土壤微生物量碳、氮、磷含量和酶活性;在相同秸秆还田处理条件下,与常规耕作和垄耕处理相比,免耕处理能显著提高土壤微生物量碳、氮、磷含量和土壤酶活性;免耕秸秆还田处理下,花生产量高出未还田处理4.32%。综上,免耕秸秆还田处理能显著提高土壤微生物量碳、氮、磷含量和土壤酶活性,提高耕层土壤生物学肥力,促进作物增产。     

保护性耕作对麦-豆轮作土壤有机碳全氮及微生物量碳氮的影响

通过设置在甘肃省定西市李家堡镇的保护性耕作措施长期定位试验,共设4个处理（T：传统耕作;NT：免耕无覆盖;TS：传统耕作＋秸秆还田;NTS：免耕＋秸秆覆盖）,采用春小麦豌豆双序列轮作（即小麦→豌豆→小麦和豌豆→小麦→豌豆,本文中所指春小麦地、豌豆地分别指2008年种植春小麦、豌豆的轮作次序）,于2008年3月中旬对春小麦、豌豆双序列轮作下的土壤有机碳、全氮、土壤微生物量碳及土壤微生物量氮含量进行了采样测定。结果表明,经过7a的轮作后,两种轮作次序下,0-30cm土层中土壤有机碳、全氮、土壤微生物量碳、土壤微生物量氮含量均有在免耕＋秸秆覆盖、传统耕作＋秸秆还田处理较免耕不覆盖、传统耕作处理高的趋势,且其含量均随着土壤深度的增加而降低。其中,土壤微生物量碳含量在两种轮作次序下的排序均为：免耕＋秸秆覆盖（NTS）〉传统耕作＋秸秆还田（TS）〉免耕不覆盖（NT）〉传统耕作（T）;而土壤微生物量氮含量在春小麦地和豌豆地的排序则分别表现为：免耕＋秸秆覆盖（NTS）〉传统耕作＋秸秆还田（TS）〉传统耕作（T）〉免耕不覆盖（NT）和免耕＋秸秆覆盖（NTS）〉传统耕作＋秸秆还田（TS）〉免耕不覆盖（NT）〉传统耕作（T）。同时,微生物量碳、微生物量氮与有机碳和全氮均呈显著正相关,说明提高土壤有机质、全氮含量的保护性耕作模式有利于土壤微生物量碳与氮的积累。     

保水剂和微生物菌肥配施对旱作燕麦土壤微生物生物量碳、氮含量及酶活性的影响

为探讨保水剂和微生物菌肥配施后旱作燕麦土壤微生物生物量碳、氮含量及酶活性的影响,在内蒙古黄土高原旱作农田设置不施用保水剂和微生物菌肥(CK)、保水剂和微生物菌肥配施(A)、单施微生物菌肥(B)和单施保水剂(C)4个处理,分析燕麦全生育期内0—10,10—20,20—40 cm土壤微生物生物量碳、氮含量及酶活性时空动态变化和产量变化。结果表明:(1)全生育期,土壤微生物量碳含量呈"双峰"曲线变化,峰值均出现在孕穗期和灌浆期;氮含量呈先降低后升高再降低趋势,苗期含量最高;过氧化氢酶、蔗糖酶、脲酶活性均呈"单峰"曲线变化,过氧化氢酶、土壤蔗糖酶峰值在孕穗期,土壤脲酶则在抽穗期。(2)除CK外,土壤微生物量碳、氮含量及过氧化氢酶、蔗糖酶和脲酶活性表现为0—10 cm10—20 cm20—40 cm,其中配施(A)对0—10,10—20 cm影响均显著(p0.05),单施(B、C)仅对10—20 cm土层影响显著(p0.05)。(3)10—20 cm土层,配施(A)与其他3个处理间差异均显著(p0.05),提高微生物量碳含量4.82%～40.28%、微生物生物量氮含量8.44%～68.66%、过氧化氢酶活性13.32%～60.16%、蔗糖酶活性10.45%～39.14%、脲酶活性12.40%～55.62%。(4)配施(A)能同时显著(p0.05)提高燕麦籽粒产量和生物产量,提高幅度分别为8.40%～20.12%和10.80%～25.09%。因此,保水剂和微生物菌肥配施在黄土高原旱作区具有较好改善土壤微生物活性效果,提高旱作燕麦产量。     

稻茬高度影响轮作紫云英生长及还田效应

大田试验条件下,研究了水稻机械收割不同留茬高度(15cm 、30cm 、40cm,分别标注低茬、中茬、高茬)对轮作紫云英生长、养分积累以及翻压还田后土壤养分、化学性状和微生物量等的影响。结果表明：稻茬高度显著影响轮作紫云英生长、养分积累以及翻压还田效果。紫云英单位面积株数随留茬高度的降低而显著减少；除单株分枝数外,植株株高、茎粗、单株鲜、干重均表现为高茬处理＞中茬处理＞低茬处理,高、低茬处理间差异显著或极显著。产草量受稻茬高度影响明显,单位面积鲜、干草产量均随稻茬高度的降低而显著减少,高茬处理的紫云英鲜、干草产量均最高,分别达到19.22t.hm_^-2和3.27 t.hm_^-2,较低茬处理每公顷增加15.21 t和2.53 t。不同稻茬高度处理的紫云英植株碳及氮、磷、钾含量无显著差异,植株养分积累量则随稻茬高度增加而显著增加,各养分积累量变化趋势一致；不同处理紫云英翻压还田后土壤pH值变化差异不显著,但均较试验前略有上升；土壤电导率则表现为高茬处理大于中、低茬处理,处理间差异极显著; 翻压后土壤养分变化差异较大,各养分含量均表现为随水稻留茬高度降低而减少的趋势,高留茬处理土壤的有机质、全氮、碱解氮、有效磷、速效钾含量分别较低留茬处理增加41.51%、27.35%、34.96%、68.78%、82.12%。不同处理紫云英翻压还田后,土壤可培养微生物数量存在差异。三大类微生物细菌、真菌、放线菌的数量均以高茬处理最高,除放线菌外,差异均达显著水平,其中,对细菌数量的影响最为明显,高茬处理极显著大于中、低茬处理,中、低茬处理间差异显著。综上,水稻留高茬(茬高40cm)轮作紫云英可获得较高的生物量和养分积累,翻压还田后土壤培肥效果显著优于中、低茬(茬高≦30cm)收割的处理。     

水旱轮作对冷浸田土壤碳、氮、磷养分活化的影响

有机碳活性低、微生物生物量氮含量低和磷素养分缺乏等是冷浸田土壤重要的养分障碍因子。通过连续3a的定位试验,研究油菜—水稻、玉米—水稻、紫云英—水稻和蚕豆—水稻等4种水旱轮作方式对冷浸田土壤碳、氮、磷养分活化及稻谷产量的影响。结果表明:与冬闲—水稻相比,实行水旱轮作,土壤微生物生物量碳含量提高60.54%~195.57%,微生物商增加0.24~0.81个百分点;土壤微生物生物量氮含量提高107.51%~162.90%,微生物生物量氮/总氮比增加0.71~0.91个百分点;土壤全磷、有效磷及微生物生物量磷增幅分别为14.29%~40.00%,31.42%~105.61%和63.76%~83.22%;稻谷产量提高23.64%~55.49%,不同轮作模式以玉米—水稻产量最高。土壤全磷、有效磷、微生物生物量碳、微生物生物量氮和微生物生物量磷等与稻谷产量、有效穗均呈显著或极显著正相关关系。说明潜育化程度较轻的冷浸田通过水旱轮作,土壤有机碳、氮、磷养分得到活化,其中影响冷浸田稻谷产量的养分限制因子顺序为有效磷微生物生物量氮微生物生物量磷微生物生物量碳全磷。     

免耕留茬秸秆覆盖对河西走廊荒漠化土壤改土培肥效应的研究

在荒漠化土壤上进行了免耕留茬秸秆覆盖、免耕留茬、传统土壤耕作的田间比较试验。结果表明,免耕留茬秸秆覆盖对河西走廊荒漠化土壤农田生态环境具有良好的影响。免耕留茬秸秆覆盖与传统土壤耕作比较,0~20cm耕层土壤全盐、孔隙度、pH分别降低1.86g/kg、5.28%和0.32;团粒结构,自然含水量,土壤贮水量分别增加72.5g/kg、32.95g/kg和111.98m3/hm2;玉米产量、产值、利润分别增加1.95t/hm2、1600元/hm2和600元/hm2;增产率达21.56%;土壤有机质、全N、速效N、P、K和CEC亦随之增加。     

免耕覆盖还田下玉米秸秆氮素的去向研究

采用田间微区试验,以15N标记的玉米秸秆为研究对象,研究了免耕覆盖还田下玉米秸秆氮素经过4个生长季后的作物累积利用率、在土壤(0~60 cm)的残留率以及损失情况。试验共设2个处理:TS1为第1年15N标记秸秆覆盖还田,此后秸秆不还田;TS2为第1年15N标记秸秆覆盖还田,此后每年以非标记秸秆还田。结果表明:经过4个生长季后,两个处理间的玉米籽粒、秸秆的累积产量及总氮素吸收量的差异均不显著。在TS1处理中,秸秆氮素在籽粒和秸秆中的累积回收率分别为14.2%和6.7%,并分别高于TS2处理的12.4%和5.8%。与作物的累积回收率相比,更多的秸秆氮素被保持在土壤中。在TS1和TS2处理中,秸秆氮素在土壤中的残留率分别为40.9%和73.8%,而损失率分别为38.6%和8.1%。与TS1处理相比,TS2处理中较高的土壤微生物生物量碳和氮以及较低的矿质态秸秆氮的含量,说明连续秸秆还田在一定程度上提高了最初还田秸秆氮素在土壤中的微生物固持并降低了秸秆氮素的淋失风险,从而显著提高秸秆氮素在土壤-植物系统中的总回收率。因此,在温带农田生态系统中,长期的免耕结合秸秆覆盖还田可促进秸秆氮素的积累,这对提高和保持土壤氮素含量和稳定性具有重要的意义。     

Influence of mulch C/N ratio and decomposition stage on plant N uptake and N availability in soil with or without wheat straw

Mulches can improve soil properties, but little is known about nutrient availability in mulched soil that contains plant residues and the effect of mulching with manures. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of mulching with high or low C/N organic materials, in which low C/N materials differed in decomposability, and the presence of wheat straw in the soil on plant growth and N uptake, soil N availability and microbial biomass N within about four months after mulching. Three organic materials were used: mature wheat straw (W, C/N 80), young faba bean shoots (FB, C/N 7), and sheep manure (SM, C/N 8). There were eight treatments differing in amendment methods (mulching or mixing with W or both) and mulching materials (W, FB or SM). Treatments that were only mulched with W, FB or SM are referred to as m‐treatments. In m/s‐treatments, after W was mixed into the soil, W, FB or SM were placed on the soil surface as mulch. Two other treatments included an unamended control and soil mixed with W. Wheat was planted 0, 35 or 70 days after mulching (referred to as 0, 35, and 70 DAM) and grown for 35 days. Faba bean mulch increased shoot dry weight, shoot N uptake and available N compared to wheat or sheep manure mulch, particularly in the m‐treatments. Shoot dry weight was higher in m‐treatments than corresponding m/s‐treatments with the same mulch type. Shoot N uptake was higher in 70 DAM than in 0 DAM in all treatments and 0.3 to three‐fold higher in m‐treatments than the corresponding m/s‐treatments. Microbial biomass N was higher in 0 DAM than in 35 and 70 DAM in most treatments and up to two‐fold higher in m/s‐treatments than the corresponding m‐treatments. Available N in m/s‐treatments was two to six‐fold higher than m‐treatments in 0 DAM, but differed little in older mulch ages of W and SM. It can be concluded that compared to soil with only mulch, mixing of wheat straw into soil reduced plant growth and N uptake, particularly in the early stages of mulching (0 and 35 DAM). However, the presence of wheat in mulched soil may provide a longer lasting source of N for plants and reduce the risk of N leaching from rapidly decomposing low C/N mulch due to greater microbial biomass N uptake than only soil with mulch.     

Film fully-mulched ridge-furrow cropping affects soil biochemical properties and maize nutrient uptake in a rainfed semi-arid environment

Abstract

This study evaluated the effects of plastic mulched ridge-furrow cropping on soil biochemical properties and maize (Zea mays L.) nutrient uptake in a semi-arid environment. Three treatments were evaluated from 2008 to 2010: no mulch (narrow ridges with crop seeded next to ridges), half mulch (as per no mulch, except narrow ridges were mulched), and full mulch (alternate narrow and wide ridges, all mulched with maize seeded in furrows). Compared to the no mulch treatment, full mulch increased maize grain yield by 50% in 2008 and 25% in 2010, but reduced yield by 21% in 2009 after low precipitation in early growth. Half mulch had a similar grain yield to no mulch in the three cropping years, suggesting half mulch is not an effective pattern for maize cropping in the area. Mulch treatments increased aboveground nitrogen (N) uptake by 21?34% and phosphorus (P) uptake by 21?42% in 2008, and by 16?32% and 14?29%, respectively, in 2010; but in 2009 mulching did not affect N uptake and decreased P uptake. Soil microbial biomass and activities of urease, β-glucosidase and phosphatase at the 0?15 cm depth were generally higher during vegetative growth but lower during reproductive growth under mulch treatments than no mulch. Mulching treatments increased carbon (C) loss of buried maize residues (marginally by 5?9%), and decreased light soil organic C (15?27%) and carbohydrate C (12?23%) concentrations and mineralizable C and N (8?36%) at harvest in the 0?20 cm depth compared with no mulch, indicating that mulching promotes mineralization and nutrient release in soil during cropping seasons. As a result of these biological changes, mineral N concentration under mulch was markedly increased after sowing in upper soil layers compared with no mulch. Therefore, our results suggest that mulched cropping stimulated soil microbial activity and N availability, and thus contributed to increasing maize grain yield and nutrient uptake compared with no mulch.     

The use of polyethylene mulches to change soil microclimate as revealed by enzyme activity and biomass nitrogen,sulphur and phosphorus

Summary The effects of white, black and clear polyethylene mulches on temporal fluctuations in protease, sulphatase and phosphatase activities and levels of available and biomass N, S and P in raised beds of soil under a strawberry crop were investigated under field conditions. During spring, summer and early autumn, clear and, to a lesser extent black, polyethylene mulch increased both maximum and minimum mean monthly temperatures over those recorded with white mulch or no mulch. During summer and autumn, soil moisture content measured at monthly intervals was higher under mulched than unmulched conditions. Levels of extractable nitrate and sulphate in soils during autumn followed the order: clear mulch = black mulch > white mulch > no mulch. However, there were no significant differences in levels of enzyme activity or concentrations of biomass N, S or P between treatments. There were significant seasonal fluctuations in estimates of biomass N, S and P, but there was no close relationship between fluctuations in any estimate. This discrepancy was attributed to errors in the chloroform fumigation technique. Enzyme activities showed significant temporal fluctuations but the three enzymes did not show similar times of minimum and maximum activity. The complexity of interactions between soil microbial and biochemical properties and nutrient availability was exemplified by the absence of a discernible relationship between seasonal fluctuations in enzyme activities and levels of biomass N, S and P and/or levels of extractable mineral N, S and P in the soil. Strawberry fruit yields and vegetative growth followed the order : clear mulch = black mulch>white mulch>no mulch. Clear, and to a lesser extent black mulch increased the percentage of total yields produced in the first 2 months of cropping.     

长期平衡施肥对潮土微生物活性和玉米养分吸收的影响

利用中国科学院封丘农业生态实验站农田生态系统养分平衡长期定位试验地,研究氮磷钾平衡施肥(NPK)与缺素施肥(NK、PK、NP)对土壤微生物生物量、酶活性、呼吸强度以及玉米养分吸收的影响。结果发现,与不施肥对照(CK)相比,NPK处理玉米根系与茎叶生物量、籽粒产量以及植株氮磷钾吸收量均大幅提高,NP处理次之,PK与NK处理则无显著影响;同一处理玉米茎叶与根系养分含量接近,而籽粒的全氮和全磷含量较高、全钾含量偏低;与NPK处理相比,缺施氮、磷或钾肥均直接导致玉米植株相应养分的明显亏缺或其他养分的过量富集,但在根系、茎叶和籽粒部位的累积情况存在一定差异。与CK相比,所有施加磷肥的处理(NPK、NP、PK)土壤微生物生物量(碳、氮、磷)、脱氢酶、转化酶、脲酶与碱性磷酸酶活性以及土壤微生物代谢活性和土壤基础呼吸强度均显著升高(p<0.05),土壤微生物代谢熵则显著下降(p<0.05),而缺施磷肥的NK处理除显著提高脲酶活性外(p<0.05),对其他指标均无显著影响。结果表明,氮磷钾平衡施肥在促进土壤微生物繁育和保育微生物代谢活性以及促进作物生长和保证养分吸收等方面显得非常重要,而缺素施肥中以缺施磷肥的不利影响最为突出。     

Tillage effects on microbial biomass and nutrient distribution in soils under rain-fed corn production in central-western Mexico

Quantifying how tillage systems affect soil microbial biomass and nutrient cycling by manipulating crop residue placement is important for understanding how production systems can be managed to sustain long-term soil productivity. Our objective was to characterize soil microbial biomass, potential N mineralization and nutrient distribution in soils (Vertisols, Andisols, and Alfisols) under rain-fed corn (Zea mays L.) production from four mid-term (6 years) tillage experiments located in central-western, Mexico. Treatments were three tillage systems: conventional tillage (CT), minimum tillage (MT) and no tillage (NT). Soil was collected at four locations (Casas Blancas, Morelia, Apatzingán and Tepatitlán) before corn planting, at depths of 0–50, 50–100 and 100–150 mm. Conservation tillage treatments (MT and NT) significantly increased crop residue accumulation on the soil surface. Soil organic C, microbial biomass C and N, potential N mineralization, total N, and extractable P were highest in the surface layer of NT and decreased with depth. Soil organic C, microbial biomass C and N, total N and extractable P of plowed soil were generally more evenly distributed throughout the 0–150 mm depth. Potential N mineralization was closely associated with organic C and microbial biomass. Higher levels of soil organic C, microbial biomass C and N, potential N mineralization, total N, and extractable P were directly related to surface accumulation of crop residues promoted by conservation tillage management. Quality and productivity of soils could be maintained or improved with the use of conservation tillage.     

不同耕作方式下覆草旱作稻田土壤肥力的特征

通过始建于2003年中国南方季节性干旱区(江西省余江县)的双季稻田定位试验,于2005～2007年研究了水稻覆草旱作和免耕覆草旱作对稻田土壤理化性质和生物学性质的影响。结果表明,覆草旱作、免耕覆草旱作的耕层土壤容重和总孔隙度与常规水作的差异不显著。与常规水作相比,免耕覆草旱作显著提高土壤有机质、全氮、碱解氮和土壤基础呼吸;与常规水作相比,覆草旱作和免耕覆草旱作均显著提高土壤微生物生物量碳含量、脲酶和蔗糖酶活性。由此可知,覆草旱作和免耕覆草旱作可以作为该区积极推行的具有培肥地力作用的节水型稻作栽培模式。
