Applying Biochar and Mineral Amendments to Remediate the Chemical Properties of a Saline-Sodic Soil
The present study was intended to improve the chemical properties of a saline-sodic soil using the individual application of alfalfa residue and two biochars produced from sugarcane bagasse and walnut shell, at the weighting ratio of 5%; their concomitant application with gypsum, aluminum sulfate and the mixture of these two chemical amendments was considered. The experiment was conducted in th...
متن کاملInfluence of cover crops and soil amendments on okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L.) production and soil nematodes
A pot experiment to determine the effects of summer cover crops and soil amendments on okra yields and population densities of various soil nematode taxa was conducted in two consecutive growing seasons in a subtropical region. Two cover crops, sunn hemp (Crotalaria juncea) and sorghum sudangrass (Sorghum bicolorrS. bicolor var. sudanense), were grown and returned to the soil with fallow as a c...
متن کاملSoil Amendments Promote Vegetation Establishment and Control Acidity in Coal Combustion Waste
1. ABSTRACT Thc effects of adding various soil amendments and a pyrite oxidation inhibitor to aid in the establishment of vegetation and to reduce acid drainage (AD) from coal fly ash and coal reject (FA + CR*) were assessed in an outdoor mesocosm study. Preliminary greenhouse experiments and field observations at the U.S. Department of Energy's Savannah River Site (SRS) indicated that plants w...
متن کاملEvaluation of Soil Amendments and Cover Crops for Certified Organic Pepper Production
Introduction With the implementation of consistent federal standards for products marketed as “organic” in October 2002 (USDA/AMS, 2002), organic production and consumption is expected to increase beyond current organic sales of $10 billion in 2001 (OTA, 2002). In 1999, Iowa farmers reported 150,000 acres of organic production to the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship survey (I...
