Mushroom residue application affects CH4 and N2O emissions from fields under rice–wheat rotation

A field experiment involving rice–wheat rotation was performed to investigate the effect of mushroom residue (MR) in comparison with chemical fertilizer (CF) and crop straw return on methane (CH₄) and nitrous oxide (N₂O) emissions in 2012–2013. Five treatments in quadruplicate were included in this study: (1) CF only, (2) CFS (straw + CF), (3) MR-1 (50% amount of N in CF was replaced with MR), (4) MR-2 (100% amount of N in CF was replaced with MR) and (5) MR-3 (150% amount of N in CF was replaced with MR). Results showed that the effects of CFS and MR-1 treatments on CH₄ and N₂O emissions did not significantly differ. By contrast, CH₄ emissions decreased as the amount of applied MR increased. Crop straw and MR stimulated CH₄ emissions (from 48.8% to 119%) in rice season in 2012. In 2013, the applied crop straw and MR decreased CH₄ emissions (from 21.3% to 37.3%). This contrasting effect might be explained by the difference in soil moisture content between the two seasons. N₂O emission in wheat season could be efficiently decreased (from 25.2% to 29.7%) by applying MR. Our results suggesting that MR could be used as a soil organic amendment under the premise of proper water management.     

Azolla incorporation and dual cropping influences CH4 and N2O emissions from flooded paddy ecosystems

ABSTRACT

To investigate the influence of Azolla (A. filiculoides Lam.) incorporated as a green manure and its subsequent growth as a dual crop with rice on simultaneous methane (CH₄) and nitrous oxide (N₂O) emissions from a flooded alluvial soil planted with rice, a pot experiment with three treatments, chemical fertilizers (NPK) as the control, incorporation of Azolla as green manure (AGM), and AGM plus basal chemical fertilizers (NPK+AGM) was conducted in Tsuruoka, Yamagata, Japan in 2017. AGM and NPK+AGM treatments significantly increased CH₄ emissions at early rice growth stages before 63 days after transplanting (DAT) by 123.0% and 176.7% compared to NPK, respectively. At late rice growth stages (after 63 DAT), only the NPK+AGM treatment significantly increased CH₄ emission by 22.1% compared to NPK. However, percentage of CH₄ emitted after 63 DAT relative to the seasonal CH₄ emission followed the order of NPK (86.2%) > AGM (76.5%) > NPK+AGM (73.3%). Higher CH₄ emissions from AGM and NPK+AGM before 63 DAT were attributed to the incorporated Azolla, while the higher emissions after 63 DAT in all treatment groups were ascribed to rice photosynthesis. AGM and NPK+AGM treatments significantly decreased N₂O emissions by 71.6% and 81.1% compared to NPK, respectively, at early rice growth stages. Azolla incorporation may have restricted N₂O emission from initial soil nitrate before 63 DAT and not have contributed to N₂O emissions after 63 DAT. Significantly higher grain yields were observed under the AGM (32.5%) and NPK+AGM (36.3%) compared to NPK. Together, AGM and NPK+AGM treatments significantly increased seasonal CH₄ emissions by 31.5% and 43.5%, and decreased seasonal N₂O emissions 3.4- and 4.6- fold compared to NPK, respectively. There were no significant differences in the CH₄ emissions per grain yield among the treatments; however compared to NPK, AGM and NPK+AGM treatments significantly reduced N₂O emissions per grain yield by 78.7% and 84.1%, respectively.     

不同施肥处理稻田甲烷和氧化亚氮排放特征

采用静态箱－气相色谱法对长期不同施肥处理(NPKS、CK、NPK和NKM)的稻田CH₄和N₂O排放进行了观测。结果表明，稻田CH₄和N₂O排放季节变化规律明显不同，二者排放通量季节变化呈显著负相关(p<0.01)。与单施化肥和CK相比，施用有机肥显著促进CH₄排放，排放量最高的NPKS处理早晚稻田排放量分别是：526.68 kg/hm²和1072.92 kg/hm²。对于N₂O排放，早稻田各处理间差异不显著，NPK处理排放量最大，为1.48 kg/hm²；晚稻田各处理差异极显著(p<0.01)，NPKS处理排放量最大，为1.40 kg/hm²。晚稻田CH₄排放通量和10 cm土层温度及土壤pH值相关极显著(p<0.01)，并与二者存在显著的指数关系。没发现N₂O排放通量与温度及pH值间存在显著相关。稻田CH₄和N₂O排放受多种因素影响，但对全球变暖的贡献率CH₄远大于N₂O。NPKS处理的增温潜势最大，NPK处理的最小。     

Regulating mineral N release and greenhouse gas emissions by mixing groundnut residues and rice straw under field conditions

Groundnut as a pre‐rice crop is usually harvested 1–2 months before rice transplanting, during which much of legume residue N released could be lost. Our objectives were to investigate the effect of mixing groundnut residues (GN, 5 Mg ha^?1) with rice straw (RS) in different proportions on: (i) regulating N dynamics, (ii) potential microbial interactions during decomposition, and (iii) associated nitrous oxide and methane emissions at weekly intervals during the lag phase until rice transplanting (i, ii) or harvest (iii). Decomposition was fastest in groundnut residues (64% N lost) with a negative interaction for N loss when mixed 1:1 with rice straw. Adding groundnut residues increased mineral N initially, while added rice straw led to initial microbial N immobilization. Mineral N in mixed residue treatments was significantly greatest at the beginning of rice transplanting. Soil microbial N and apparent efficiency were higher, while absolute and relative microbial C were often lowest in groundnut and mixed treatments. Microbial C:N ratio increased with increasing proportion of added rice straw. N₂O losses were largest in the groundnut treatment (12.2 mg N₂O‐N m^?2 day^?1) in the first week after residue incorporation and reduced by adding rice straw. N₂O‐N emissions till rice harvest amounted to 0.73 g N₂O‐N m^?2 in the groundnut treatment. CH₄ emissions were largest in mixed treatments (e.g. 155.9 g CH₄ m^?2, 1:1 treatment). Mixing residues resulted in a significant interaction in that observed gaseous losses were greater than predicted from a purely additive effect. It appears possible to regulate N dynamics by mixing rice straw with groundnut residues; however, at a trade‐off of increased CH₄ emissions.     

Greenhouse gas emissions in response to straw incorporation,water management and their interaction in a paddy field in subtropical central China

A field experiment was conducted to study the effects of combination of straw incorporation and water management on fluxes of CH₄, N₂O and soil heterotrophic respiration (Rh) in a paddy field in subtropical central China by using a static opaque chamber/gas chromatography method. Four treatments were set up: two rice straw incorporation rates at 0 (S1) and 6 (S2) t ha^?1 combined with two water managements of intermittent irrigation (W1, with mid-season drainage) and continuous flooding (W2, without mid-season drainage). The cumulative seasonal CH₄ emissions for the treatments of S1W2, S2W1 and S2W2 increased significantly by 1.84, 5.47 and 6.63 times, respectively, while seasonal N₂O emissions decreased by 0.67, 0.29 and 1.21 times, respectively, as compared to S1W1 treatment. The significant increase in the cumulative Rh for the treatments S1W1, S2W1 and S2W2 were 0.54, 1.35 and 0.52 times, respectively, in comparison with S1W2. On a seasonal basis, both the CO₂-equivalents (CO₂e) and yield-scaled CO₂e (GHGI) of CH₄ and N₂O emissions increased with straw incorporation and continuous flooding, following the order: S2W2>S2W1>S1W2>S1W1. Thus, the practices of in season straw incorporation should be discouraged, while mid-season drainage is recommended in paddy rice production from a point view of reducing greenhouse gas emissions.     

Incorporation of rice straw mitigates CH4 and N2O emissions in water saving paddy fields of Central Vietnam

This study evaluated the effects of rice straw and water regimes on CH₄ and N₂O emissions from paddy fields for two rice growing seasons (summer 2014 and spring 2015). Water regimes included alternating wet–dry irrigation (AWD) maintained at three levels (–5 cm, – 10 cm and –15 cm) in comparison to continuous flooding irrigation (CF). Rice straw (5 t ha^–1) was incorporated into the top soil (0 – 15 cm), distributed and burned in situ. Results showed that using burned in situ rice straw was found to reduce seasonal cumulative CH₄ emission (24–34% in summer; 18–28% in spring), N₂O emission (21–32% in summer; 22–29% in spring) and lower rice yield (8–9%) than rice straw incorporation into top soil. AWD methods reduced the amount of CH₄ production (22.6–41.5%) and increased N₂O emission (25–26%) without any decrease in rice yield. Rice straw incorporation into the top soil with AWD had higher water productivity (23–37%) than rice straw when burned in situ with CF. The results conclude that AWD and rice straw management can be employed as mitigation strategy for CH₄ and N₂O emissions from paddy fields in Central Vietnam.     

Wheat straw management affects CH4 and N2O emissions from rice fields

A 3-year field experiment was conducted in Jiangsu Province, China from 2004 to 2006 to investigate CH₄ and N₂O emissions from paddy fields as affected by various wheat straw management practices prior to rice cultivation. Five methods of returning wheat straw, no straw, evenly incorporating, burying straw, ditch mulching and strip mulching, were adopted in the experiment. Evenly incorporating is the most common management practice in the region. Results showed that compared with no straw, evenly incorporating increased CH₄ emission significantly by a factor of 3.9-10.5, while decreasing N₂O emission by 1-78%. Methane emission from burying straw was comparable with that from evenly incorporating, while N₂O emission from burying straw was 94-314% of that from evenly incorporating. Compared with evenly incorporating, CH₄ emission was decreased by 23-32% in ditch mulching and by 32% in strip mulching, while N₂O emission was increased by a factor of 1.4-3.7 in ditch mulching and by a factor of 5.1 in strip mulching. During the rice-growing season, the emitted N₂O was negligible compared to that of emitted CH₄. No significant difference in grain yield was observed between ditch mulching, burying straw, evenly incorporating and no straw. Compared with no straw, the grain yield was increased by 27% in strip mulching. Based on these results, the best management practice for returning wheat straw to the soil is strip mulching wheat straw partially or completely onto the field surface, as the method reduced CH₄ emission from rice fields with no decrease in rice yield.     

Effect of Organic Residues with Varied Carbon–Nitrogen Ratios on Grain Yield,Soil Health,and Nitrous Oxide Emission from a Rice Agroecosystem

Experiments were conducted in an attempt to study the impact of using different organic residues as fertilizers on grain yield, magnitude of nitrous oxide (N₂O) emissions, and soil characteristics. Five fertilizer treatments including conventional nitrogen (N) fertilizer, cow manure, rice straw, poultry manure, and sugarcane bagasse were applied in the rice field in 2012. The maximum reduction in seasonal N₂O emissions (10–27%) was observed under the influence of rice straw application over conventional N fertilizer. The experiment was repeated for a second season in 2013 with the same treatments for further confirmation of the results obtained during the first year of experimentation. The application of rice straw also showed a slight advantage by increasing grain yield (4.38 t ha^?1) compared to control. Important soil properties and plant growth parameters were studied and their relationships with N₂O emission were worked out. The incorporation of organic residues helped in restoring and improving the soil health and effectively enhancing grain yield with reduced N₂O emission from rice fields.     

Is burial of wheat straw in ditches a way to reduce CH4 emissions from rice cultivation?

Abstract

Burial of wheat straw in ditches and incorporation of wheat straw are the two main ways of returning wheat straw prior to rice cultivation in China. To examine the effect of burying wheat straw in ditches on CH₄ emissions from rice cultivation, a field experiment was conducted at Yixing, Jiangsu, China in 2004. CH₄ flux was measured using a closed-chamber technique in three treatments (CK, no wheat straw application; WI, evenly incorporating 3.75 t ha^?1 wheat straw into the 0.1 m topsoil; WD, burying 3.75 t ha^?1 wheat straw in 0.14-m deep by 0.25-m wide ditches). Seasonal CH₄ emissions ranged from 49.7 to 218.4 kg CH₄ ha^?1. The application of wheat straw in these two ways significantly increased CH₄ emissions by 4.0-fold and 4.4-fold, respectively (P < 0.05). Although CH₄ flux from the non-ditch area in the WD treatment was as low as that in the CK treatment, it was counter-balanced by extremely high CH₄ flux from the ditch, which was approximately 6.0-fold as much as that from WI, leading to comparability between treatments WI and WD in total CH₄ emissions (P > 0.05). No significant difference was observed between the three treatments in grain yield (P > 0.05). The results indicated that burial of wheat straw in ditches is not a way to reduce CH₄ emission from rice cultivation.     

施肥方式对紫色土农田生态系统N2O和NO排放的影响

依托紫色土施肥方式与养分循环长期试验平台(2002年—),采用静态箱-气相色谱法开展紫色土冬小麦-夏玉米轮作周期(2013年10月至2014年10月)农田生态系统N_2O和NO排放的野外原位观测试验。长期施肥方式包括单施氮肥(N)、传统猪厩肥(OM)、常规氮磷钾肥(NPK)、猪厩肥配施氮磷钾肥(OMNPK)和秸秆还田配施氮磷钾肥(RSDNPK)等5种,氮肥用量相同[小麦季130 kg(N)×hm~(-2),玉米季150 kg(N)×hm~(-2)],不施肥对照(CK)用于计算排放系数,对比不同施肥方式对紫色土典型农田生态系统土壤N_2O和NO排放的影响,以期探寻紫色土农田生态系统N_2O和NO协同减排的施肥方式。结果表明,所有施肥方式下紫色土N_2O和NO排放速率波动幅度大,且均在施肥初期出现峰值;强降雨激发N_2O排放,但对NO排放无明显影响。在整个小麦-玉米轮作周期,N、OM、NPK、OMNPK和RSDNPK处理的N_2O年累积排放量分别为1.40 kg(N)×hm~(-2)、4.60 kg(N)×hm~(-2)、0.95 kg(N)×hm~(-2)、2.16kg(N)×hm~(-2)和1.41 kg(N)×hm~(-2),排放系数分别为0.41%、1.56%、0.25%、0.69%、0.42%;NO累积排放量分别为0.57 kg(N)×hm~(-2)、0.40 kg(N)×hm~(-2)、0.39 kg(N)×hm~(-2)、0.46 kg(N)×hm~(-2)和0.17 kg(N)×hm~(-2),排放系数分别为0.21%、0.15%、0.15%、0.17%、0.07%。施肥方式对紫色土N_2O和NO累积排放量具有显著影响(P0.05),与NPK处理比较,OM和OMNPK处理的N_2O排放分别增加384%和127%,同时NO排放分别增加3%和18%;RSDNPK处理的NO排放减少56%。表明长期施用猪厩肥显著增加N_2O和NO排放,而秸秆还田有效减少NO排放。研究表明,土壤温度和水分条件均显著影响小麦季N_2O和NO排放(P0.01),对玉米季N_2O和NO排放没有显著影响(P0.05),土壤无机氮含量则是在小麦-玉米轮作期N_2O和NO排放的主要限制因子(P0.01)。全量秸秆还田与化肥配合施用是紫色土农田生态系统N_2O和NO协同减排的优化施肥方式。     

稻季施肥管理措施对后续麦季N2O排放的影响

2003─2004年选用江苏省宜兴市稻-麦轮作试验田,研究了水稻生长季秸杆(0和3.75×103kg/hm2两个水平)和N肥施用(N0、200和270kg/hm23个水平)对后续麦季N2O排放的影响。结果表明:稻季秸杆施用显著减少了后续麦季N2O的排放,这些减少量主要体现在小麦播种-返青期,方差分析达显著水平(P<0.05)。稻季施用N肥,后续麦季N2O排放减少,但N200和270kg/hm2N肥施用水平的处理间无显著差异。麦季土壤水分情况与N2O排放通量存在显著正相关(P<0.05)。     

太湖地区不同水旱轮作方式下稻季甲烷和氧化亚氮排放研究

为准确编制我国稻田温室气体排放清单及制定合理减排措施提供基础数据,选择太湖地区典型水稻种植区江苏省苏州市,研究设计了休闲水稻(对照,CK)、紫云英水稻(T1)、黑麦草水稻(T2)、小麦水稻(T3)和油菜水稻(T4)5种水旱轮作方式,采用静态箱气相色谱法,开展了不同水旱轮作方式下水稻生长季田间甲烷(CH4)和氧化亚氮(N2O)排放监测试验。试验结果表明:不同水旱轮作方式下水稻生长季CH4排放通量呈先升高后降低的变化趋势,CH4排放峰值出现在水稻生育前期,移栽至有效分蘖临界叶龄期CH4累积排放量占全生育期排放总量的比例为65%~81%,而N2O仅在水稻烤田期间有明显排放。水旱轮作方式对稻季CH4和N2O排放有极显著(P 0.01)影响,CH4季节总排放量表现为T1(283.2 kg.hm 2)CK(139.5 kg.hm 2)T3(123.4kg.hm 2)T4(114.7 kg.hm 2)T2(100.8 kg.hm 2),N2O季节总排放量顺序为T1 T4 T3 T2 CK,依次为1.06kg.hm 2、0.87 kg.hm 2、0.81 kg.hm 2、0.72 kg.hm 2和0.53 kg.hm 2。T1处理稻季排放CH4和N2O产生的增温潜势最高[7 396 kg(CO2).hm 2],显著(P 0.05)高于其他处理,比CK[3 646 kg(CO2).hm 2]增加103%,T2[2 735kg(CO2).hm 2]较CK减少25%(P 0.05)。紫云英水稻轮作方式增加了太湖地区水稻生长季的温室效应。     

Tillage and crop residue management significantly affects N-trace gas emissions during the non-rice season of a subtropical rice-wheat rotation

Field operations of tillage and residue incorporation could have potentially important influences on N-trace gas fluxes, though poorly quantified. Here we studied the effects of straw incorporation in the preceding rice season and no-tillage prior to wheat sowing on nitric oxide (NO) and nitrous oxide (N₂O) emissions during the non-rice period of a typical rice-wheat rotation in the Yangtze River Delta. Compared to conventional management practice (no straw incorporation along with rotary harrowing tillage to 10 cm before wheat sowing), straw incorporation alone decreased cumulative N₂O emissions over the entire non-rice period by 32% (1.53 vs. 2.24 kg N ha^-1, P < 0.05) but did not affect NO emissions (0.88 vs. 0.87 kg N ha⁻¹). In contrast, no-tillage alone increased N₂O emissions by 75% (P < 0.05) while reducing NO emissions by 48% (P < 0.01). Combination of no-tillage and straw incorporation led to no change in N₂O emissions but a reduction in NO emissions compared to the conventional management regime. The direct N₂O emission factors (EF_ds) of applied nitrogen fertilizers during the non-rice season ranged from 0.29% to 1.35% with a coefficient of variation (CV) as large as 68% among the investigated management regimes. The EF_ds for NO ranged from 0.13% to 0.32% with a CV of 50%. Adoption of these new EF_ds will allow us to account for management effects on N-trace gas emissions when calculating emission inventories. Nevertheless, it is noteworthy that the uncertainty remains high, since the effects of soil properties such as texture or pH on management practices are not yet well defined.     

不同秸秆还田年限对稻麦轮作系统温室气体排放的影响

为揭示稻麦轮作系统不同秸秆还田年限下温室气体排放特征及减排调控机制,本研究采用大田小区试验,考察了稻麦轮作不同秸秆还田年限[空白对照(CK)、常规处理秸秆不还田(NT)、1年秸秆还田(SR1)和5年秸秆还田(SR5)]对CH4、CO2和N2O 3种温室气体排放规律的影响,同时测定了土壤固碳量,估算了秸秆焚烧产生的温室气体排放量,综合计算了4种处理对全球变暖的贡献。试验结果表明,SR1和SR5均显著提升CH4和CO2的排放通量,分别高出NT、CK处理73.52%、309.49%和13.29%、13.06%;同时显著降低N2O排放通量,较NT降低29.68%和42.55%;但SR1和SR5之间温室气体排放通量差异不显著;与NT相比,SR1和SR5可以显著提高土壤固碳量517.9%和709.03%,SR5土壤固碳量高出SR1达30.93%;NT秸秆焚烧产生的全球气温变暖贡献为9 698.49 kg(CO2-eqv)·hm?2,比CK高126.98%。综合分析温室气体排放、土壤固碳以及秸秆焚烧3个因素,SR1全球升温贡献最低,显著低于NT 4.72%。短期全量秸秆还田有助于降低总体温室气体排放,长期进行秸秆还田后降低幅度会逐步减小。     

施肥方式对冬小麦—夏玉米轮作土壤N_2O排放的影响

氧化亚氮(N_2O)是一种重要的农田温室气体,本研究利用紫色土长期施肥试验平台,采用静态箱/气相色谱法对紫色土旱作农田冬小麦—夏玉米轮作系统的N_2O排放进行了定位观测(2012年11月至2013年9月),研究单施氮肥(N)、常规氮磷钾肥(NPK)、猪厩肥(OM)、猪厩肥配施氮磷钾肥(OMNPK)和秸秆还田配施氮磷钾肥(ICRNPK)等施肥方式对紫色土N_2O排放特征的影响;不施肥(NF)作为对照计算排放系数,以探寻紫色土地区可操作性强、环境友好的施肥方式。结果表明,所有施肥方式的N_2O排放均呈现双峰排放,峰值出现在施肥初期;玉米季N_2O排放峰值显著高于小麦季(p0.05)。在相同的施氮水平(小麦季130 kg hm~(~(-2)),玉米季150 kg hm~(~(-2)))下,施肥方式对N_2O排放和作物产量均有显著影响(p0.05)。N、OM、NPK、OMNPK和ICRNPK处理的土壤N_2O周年累积排放量分别为1.93、1.96、1.12、1.50和0.79 kg hm~(~(-2)),排放系数分别为0.62%、0.63%、0.33%、0.47%和0.21%,全年作物产量分别为4.35、11.95、8.39、9.77、10.93 t hm~(~(-2))。施用猪厩肥显著增加N_2O排放量,而秸秆还田在保证作物产量的同时显著降低N_2O排放量,可作为紫色土地区环境友好的施肥方式。土壤无机氮(NO_3~--N和NH_4~+-N)是N_2O排放的主要限制因子。因此,在施氮水平相同时,施肥方式对紫色土活性氮含量的影响导致N_2O排放差异显著,是土壤N_2O排放差异的根本原因。土壤孔隙充水率也是影响N_2O排放的重要环境因子,并且其对N_2O排放的影响存在阈值效应。     

Effect of the long-term application of organic matter on soil carbon accumulation and GHG emissions from a rice paddy field in a cool-temperate region,Japan. -I. Comparison of rice straw and rice straw compost -

ABSTRACT

The influence of the long-term combination of rice straw removal and rice straw compost application on methane (CH₄) and nitrous oxide (N₂O) emissions and soil carbon accumulation in rice paddy fields was clarified. In each of the initial and continuous application fields (3 and 39?51 years, respectively), three plots with different applications of organic matter were established, namely, rice straw application (RS), rice straw compost application (SC) and no application (NA) plots, and soil carbon storage (0?15 cm), rice grain yield and CH₄ and N₂O fluxes were measured for three years. The soil carbon sequestration rate by the organic matter application was higher in the SC plot than in the RS plot for both the initial and continuous application fields, and it was lower in the continuous application field than in the initial application field. The rice grain yield in the SC plot was significantly higher than those in the other plots in both the initial and continuous application fields. Cumulative CH₄ emissions followed the order of the NA plot < the SC plot < the RS plot for both the initial and continuous application fields. The effect of the organic matter application on the N₂O emissions was not clear. In both the initial and continuous application fields, the increase in CH₄ emission by the rice straw application exceeded the soil carbon sequestration rate, and the change in the net greenhouse gas (GHG) balance calculated by the difference between them was a positive, indicating a net increase in the GHG emissions. However, the change in the GHG balance by the rice straw compost application showed negative (mitigating GHG emissions) for the initial application field, whereas it showed positive for the continuous application field. Although the mitigation effect on the GHG emissions by the combination of the rice straw removal and rice straw compost application was reduced by 21% after 39 years long-term application, it is suggested that the combination treatment is a sustainable management that can mitigate GHG emissions and improve crop productivity.     

早稻秸秆原位焚烧对红壤晚稻田CH4和N2O排放及产量的影响

选取湖南双季稻田为研究对象,采用静态箱-气相色谱法对晚稻田在常规施肥（NPK）、常规施肥+秸秆原位焚烧（NPK+SB）处理下的CH4和N2O排放通量进行观测,同时根据设定参数对秸秆焚烧排放的CH4和N2O进行估算。结果表明,晚稻生长期间NPK和NPK+SB 处理的CH4排放量差异很小,秸秆焚烧会增加N2O排放22.8%,但差异不显著（p＞0.05）。两种施肥方式下N2O排放峰值都出现在追肥后的土壤水分饱和时期而晒田期排放很少。据估算秸秆焚烧排放的CH4和N2O分别占NPK+SB处理总排放的4.27% 和17.31%。NPK+SB处理单位产量的全球增温潜势比NPK处理高22%。综合考虑生产效应和环境效应,水稻秸秆焚烧不是明智的选择。     

Effect of the number of tillages in fallow season and fertilizer type on greenhouse gas emission from a rice (Oryza sativa L.) paddy field in Ehime,southwestern Japan

Agricultural fields, including rice (Oryza sativa L.) paddy fields, constitute one of the major sources of atmospheric methane (CH₄) and nitrous oxide (N₂O). Organic matter application, such as straw and organic fertilizer, enhances CH₄ emission from paddy fields. In addition, rice straw management after harvest regulates CH₄ emissions in the growing season. The interaction of tillage times and organic fertilizer application on CH₄ and N₂O emissions is largely unknown. Therefore, we studied the effects of fallow-season tillage times and fertilizer types on CH₄ and N₂O emissions in paddy fields in Ehime, southwestern Japan. From November 2011 to October 2013, four treatments, two (autumn and spring) or one (spring) in the first year, or two (autumn and spring) or three (autumn, winter, and spring) in the second year times of tillage with chemical or organic fertilizer application, were established. Gas fluxes were measured by the closed-chamber method. Increasing the number of tillage times from one to two decreased succeeding CH₄ emission and the emission factor for CH₄ (EF_CH4) in the rice-growing season, suggesting that the substrate for CH₄ production was reduced by autumn and spring tillage in the fallow season. Higher EF_CH4 [1.8–2.0 kg carbon (C) ha^?1 d^?1] was observed when more straw was applied (6.9–7.2 Mg ha^?1) in the second year. Organic fertilizer application induced higher CH₄ emission just after the application as basal and supplemental fertilizers, especially at a lower straw application rate. This indicated that EF_CH4 in the organically managed fields should be determined individually. Organic fertilizer application with two tillage times induced N₂O efflux during the rice-growing season in the second year, but N₂O emissions were not affected by winter tillage. Although paddy fields can act as an N₂O sink because of reduced soil conditions when straw application was high, application of organic C and nitrogen as fertilizer can enhance N₂O production by the denitrification process during the growing season, especially in the ripening stage when soil anaerobic conditions became moderate. These results suggest that negative emission factors for N₂O (EF_N2O) can be applied, and EF_N2O of organic fertilizer should be considered during the estimation of N₂O emission in the paddy field.     

秸秆条带状覆盖对稻田CH_4和N_2O排放的影响

采用3种秸秆还田方式(对照、秸秆均匀混施和秸秆条带状覆盖)进行田间试验,观测稻田CH4和N2O的排放通量,以探讨秸秆条带状覆盖对稻田CH4和N2O排放的影响。结果表明:秸秆条带状覆盖的CH4排放量是对照的2.7倍,二者的N2O排放量无明显差异;秸秆条带状覆盖的稻田CH4排放量较秸秆均匀混施减少32%,其N2O排放量是后者的5.1倍;稻田排放CH4和N2O的全球增温潜势(GWP)为:秸秆均匀混施秸秆条带状覆盖对照,且差异显著;秸秆条带状覆盖的水稻产量分别较对照和秸秆均匀混施增加27%和17%。秸秆条带状覆盖是值得推荐的稻季秸秆还田方式。     

Rice straw incorporation in winter with fertilizer-N application improves soil fertility and reduces global warming potential from a double rice paddy field

Proper rice straw management in paddy fields is necessary in order to sustain soil productivity and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. A field experiment was carried out from 2008 to 2011 in subtropical China: (1) to monitor rice yield, soil available nutrients, CH₄, and N₂O emissions and (2) to evaluate the effects of timing of rice straw incorporation and joint N application rate in a double rice cropping system. The total amount of rice straw from one cropping season was incorporated in winter (W_S) or in spring (S_S) and mineral N was jointly applied with rice straw incorporation at rates of 0, 30, and 60 % of the basal fertilization rate (N_0B, N_30B, and N_60B) for the first rice crop. Soil water was naturally drained during the period of winter fallow (P_WF) and controlled under intermittent irrigation during the period of first rice growth (P_FR). Compared with S_S, W_S significantly (P?<?0.05) increased the first rice yield only in the flooding year (2010), and increased the soil available K concentration after P_WF and P_FR in 2008–2009 and the hydrolysable N concentration after P_WF in 2010–2011. Meanwhile, W_S significantly decreased the total CH₄ emission by about 12 % in 2009–2010 and 2010–2011, but increased the total N₂O emission by 15–43 % particularly during P_WF in all 3 years, resulting in a lower GWP in W_S in the flooding year and no differences in the nonflooding years. Compared with N_0B, joint N application (N_60B and N_30B) increased the soil hydrolysable N after P_WF in all 3 years. Meanwhile, it decreased the total CH₄ emissions by 21 % and increased the N₂O emissions during P_WF by 75–150 % in the nonflooding years, but the net GWP was lower in N_60B than in N_0B. The results suggested that the rice straw incorporation with joint N application in winter is more sustainable compared with the local practices such as rice straw incorporation in spring or open-field burning.
