  • Soil Health Under Global Change and Human Impact

    Open AccessNataliya Bilyera, Benjamin L Turner et al.ARTICLELand Degradation and Development2025

    Soil health is pivotal to sustain biological productivity, maintain environmental quality, and ensure the health of plants, animals, and ultimately humans. Global changes—such as climate warming, elevated CO2 atmospheric concentration, droughts, and floods—as well as human impacts like land‐use change, chemical contamination, and application of fertilizer and pesticides, threaten soil health. Protecting soil health and raising global awareness on…

  • Legume-rice rotations increase rice yields and carbon sequestration potential globally

    Open AccessWei Yao, Yadong Yang et al.ARTICLEOne Earth2025

    Rice feeds half of the world's population but faces the pressures of yield demand under increasing environmental and climate pressures. Diversified cropping systems such as legume-based rotations may be a viable solution, but rice yield responses and environmental implications have not been synthesized globally. Here, based on 1,483 data pairs covering 17 major rice production countries worldwide, we revealed that legume inclusion increased subse…

  • Oat/Soybean Intercropping Reshape the Soil Bacterial Community for Enhanced Nutrient Cycling

    Open AccessHuaiying Ma, Jie Zhou et al.ARTICLELand Degradation and Development2024

    Intercropping, particularly within legume‐based systems, has been shown to enhance yields and optimize resource use efficiency. Yet, the potential contribution of intercropping on soil microbial communities and functions to soil nutrients cycling are not fully understood. We conducted the same field experiments at Youyu (Site1) and Zhangbei (Site2) in Northern China to evaluate the impact of oat/soybean intercropping on the rhizosphere soil bacte…

  • Straw Returning With No‐Tillage Alleviates Microbial Metabolic Carbon Limitation and Improves Soil Multifunctionality in the Northeast Plain

    Open AccessJuncong Chu, Lihong Wang et al.ARTICLELand Degradation and Development2024

    Straw returning has been broadly recognized as an agronomic strategy to manage soil quality and has great potential to enhance soil fertility. However, soil microbial metabolism and ecosystem multifunctionality in response to various straw returning strategies in the black soil remain poorly understood. Here, a 5‐year field trial was conducted to discover the effects of four straw management strategies (SIDP, straw incorporation by deep ploughing…

  • Short‐term reduction in cropping intensity improves soil quality of topsoil rather than subsoil

    Open AccessWei Yao, Qi Liu et al.ARTICLELand Degradation and Development2023

    Enhancing cropping intensity is the most effective and significant method to improve regional crop production and ensure food security. However, our understanding of the impacts of reduced cropping intensity on soil quality and ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF) with soil depth remains incomplete in tropical regions. Here, we performed a 4‐year field experiment to estimate the impacts of cropping intensity (continuous cropping, winter fallow, and…

  • Simazine degradation in agroecosystems

    Open AccessJie Zhou, Yuan Wen et al.ARTICLELand Degradation and Development2022

    Plastics and herbicides represent two of the most extensive and persistent anthropogenic contaminants entering agroecosystems. The synergistic interaction of these pollutants on soil health, however, remains poorly understood. For the first time, we investigated the behavior of a common selective triazine herbicide (simazine) in soil containing 0%, 1%, 5%, 10%, and 20% (w/w) of two commonly found microplastics, namely polyethylene (PE) and polyvi…

  • Nitrogen rhizodeposition by legumes and its fate in agroecosystems

    Open AccessXiquan Wang, Yadong Yang et al.ARTICLELand Degradation and Development2021

    Quantification of legume nitrogen (N) rhizodeposition (N derived from roots) and its fate in agroecosystems is crucial for managing soil fertility, land productivity, and agriculture sustainability. In contrast to forage legumes, the N rhizodeposition by grain legumes is nearly unknown. Therefore, N rhizodeposition of four grain legumes and its transfer to subsequent wheat crops was quantified using the 15 N stem labeling method under field condi…
