Effect of Tillage System on Soil Strength and Bulk Density of Vertisols

Improving the soil environment for seedling emergence and plant growth is possible using a good tillage system. From March 1993 until June 1994, the effect of tillage system and plant residue incorporation practices on the bulk density and the soil strength of the surface layer of a vertisol (very fine, smectitic, thermic, chromic Haploxerert), on a less than 1 % slope, was investigated. The two tillage methods were moldboard (T1) and chisel (T2). The two plant residue incorporation dates were in August (R1) and in October (R2). Results indicated that R1 gave significantly higher bulk density than R2, while the different tillage treatments had no significant effect. Soil strength was significantly lower under T1 and R2 than under the other treatments.

不同保护性耕作模式对冬小麦产量及土壤理化性状的影响

在大田条件下设4个处理:传统耕作(CT)、还田免耕(NT1)、整秆覆盖免耕(NT2)、还田深松免耕(NTS),研究了保护性耕作模式对冬小麦产量及土壤理化性状的影响。结果表明,小麦返青后,保护性耕作0~20 cm土壤容重低于传统处理,有机质含量、速效氮、速效钾和速效磷含量高于传统处理,但20~40 cm土壤养分各项指标除NTS表现与0~20 cm相同趋势外,NT1和NT2有减小趋势。保护性耕作最终提高了小麦穗粒数和千粒重,但降低了公顷穗数,比传统耕作减少240万/hm2,产量表现:NTS>CT>NT2>NT1。表明,土壤深松技术与秸秆还田相结合,能有效改善和提高土壤耕层和耕层以下土壤理化性状,发挥保护性耕作的增产潜力。     

Sediment flow behavior in agro-watersheds of the purple soil region in China under different storm types and spatial scales

Conservation tillage has proved to be an effective option to reduce erosion and particulate phosphorus (PP) losses from fields to watercourses. However, it usually leads to the higher losses of P in dissolved reactive (DRP) form if P accumulates into the uppermost soil layer.In this study we investigated the influence of CaCO₃-rich boardmill sludge (BMS, applied 7 years ago) on soil properties and percolate quality with soil samples as well as undisturbed soil columns taken from a long-term conservation-tilled clay field experiment. A short-term laboratory experiment was undertaken to evaluate whether newly added BMS (FS) can be used to improve the quality of percolate waters by reducing turbidity, PP and DRP.The hypothesis was that BMS reduces the risk of dissolved reactive phosphorus (DRP) leaching from conservation-tilled soil. BMS served as a liming agent and counteracted the no-till-induced acidification and accumulation of DRP in the surface soil layer. Surface soil pH was on average 0.3 units higher and soil Ca 500 mg kg⁻¹ higher in the BMS-treated plots than in the plots without BMS. The ability of BMS to enhance the availability of P for plants may prevent the surface accumulation of P in NT cultivation. At the same time, BMS-induced increase in Ca and EC of the surface soil suppress the diffuse double layer by reducing P desorption and leaching risk.In the laboratory experiment, FS reduced percolate turbidity by 80% and PP and DRP concentrations by 62% and 50%, respectively. FS probably improved stability of soil aggregates in the laboratory experiment, obviously through enhanced microbial activity. The covering effect and infiltration of water through the 0–5 cm soil layer seemed to be crucial factors in reducing P losses.BMS proved to be a promising material for the applications to the conservation-tilled fields. The effect of BMS on microbes and immobilization of nutrients, should, however, be studied further in fields under a wider diversity of conditions.     

利用最小水分限制范围评价东北黑土区免耕和垄作的土壤水分稳定性

为明确耕作方式对黑土土壤水分稳定性的作用,提高黑土区雨养农业对气候变化的适应性,该研究基于黑土区长期免耕定位试验,利用最小水分限制范围(Least Limiting Water Range, LLWR)评价免耕(NT)和垄作(CT)管理下土壤含水率有效性及其变异特征。结果表明:1)在0～5、5～10、10～20和20～40 cm 4个土层中,NT处理显著降低了5～10 cm的LLWR,其他3个土层LLWR差异均不显著;2)在平水年(2014)、枯水年(2015)和丰水年(2016),NT管理下作物生育期内0～40 cm平均土壤含水率正常率分别为48%、72%和85%,年间变异系数为0.23;CT的土壤含水率正常率分别为56%、20%和51%,年间变异系数为0.38;3)在丰水年,NT与CT的平均有效储水量差值最小,NT比CT高8.95mm;在枯水年相差最大,NT的平均有效储水量比CT高13.99mm。因此,NT管理下土壤水分更稳定地分布在LLWR内,在极端降雨年份(枯水年和丰水年)优势尤其明显。     

Effects of strip wise tillage in combination with liming on chemical and physical properties of acidic spruce forest soils after clear cutting

We investigated the initial effects of strip wise soil loosening (0–35 cm depth) on soil chemical and physical parameters by using a deeply working rotary cultivator in combination with liming and mixing of the dolomite with the soil material of acidic forests. The investigations took place 8 months after the treatment. pH values and contents of exchangeable Ca and Mg increased significantly at the tilled depth whereas the content of exchangeable Al and easily soluble P decreased. The rate of mineralisation increased at this depth which was shown by a loss of Corg, Ntot and short-term loss of NO₃-N. The treatment led to a mobilisation of Mn at the tilled depth. However, the content of exchangeable Pb decreased due to an increased pH value. Below the tillage depth of 35 cm only partly significant changes of exchangeable Mn and NO₃-N were found. The total porosity and bulk density at 10–15 and 40–45 cm depths were not significantly different from those in the control plot, but the rate of infiltration increased significantly.     

基于彩色空间距离优化的秸秆覆盖率检测算法研究

秸秆覆盖率是保护性耕作重要的评价指标之一。针对田间秸秆形态各异、细碎秸秆难以识别的难题,基于机器视觉技术,提出了一种基于K-means和彩色空间距离灰度化方法相结合的田间秸秆覆盖率检测算法。采用彩色空间距离方法对秸秆图像进行预处理,基于K-means算法实现秸秆和土壤背景的分类识别,使用数学形态学腐蚀和膨胀方法对识别后的图像进行处理,降低细碎秸秆对覆盖率的影响,最后计算秸秆图像的覆盖率。2022年10月,通过田间试验对北京小汤山国家精准农业研究示范基地采集的220幅玉米秸秆图像进行了算法验证。试验结果表明,对低秸秆覆盖率(0～30%)图像,识别准确率达到90%;对中等秸秆覆盖率(30%～60%)图像,识别准确率达到88%;对高秸秆覆盖率(60%以上)图像,识别准确率达到86%;整体秸秆覆盖率分等定级准确度达到98.18%。本研究设计的基于K-means和彩色空间距离灰度化方法相结合的田间秸秆覆盖率检测算法为保护性耕作评价提供了快速检测方法和手段。

通过对不同深度深松对经过微咸水淋洗改良的中度和轻度苏打盐碱化旱田的土壤体积质量(容重)、含盐量和pH等理化性状及作物产量等相关性状的影响研究,结果表明:深松措施能够有效地降低经过淋洗改良的中度和轻度苏打盐碱化旱田的土壤体积质量、含盐量和pH,明显改善其土壤理化形状,有效地促进作物根系发育,显著提高作物产量。深松措施可作为苏打盐碱土改良与持续利用的有效耕作方式加以实施;深松方法以效果极为显著且具有可操作性的原垄垄沟深松40cm,中耕时垄沟深松30cm为佳。     

麦/玉两熟区农作模式分析及轮耕模式探讨

从20世纪90年代初期起,以少/免耕为主体的耕作模式在麦/玉两熟区得到大面积推广应用。经过近15年的耕作栽培,少/免耕充分显示了它省时省工、高效环保的作用,但是与此同时一系列弊端也日益显露。对宁晋县百户农民耕作意愿调查的结果显示,在长期少/免耕后小麦产量和经济效益有所下降,而应在免耕3～5年以后对土壤进行深耕翻。对比麦/玉种植模式与马铃薯/棉花套作的经济效益,以轮作实现轮耕是麦/玉两熟区耕作模式发展方向。
