Balancing Maize Yield, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, and Soil Functions Through Nitrogen Fertilizer Reduction and Microbial Network Regulation
Excessive nitrogen (N) fertilization accelerates agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and leads to soil degradation, yet the potential of reduced N inputs to balance crop yield, GHG emissions, and soil multifunctionality—and the underlying mechanisms—remains unclear. Through a 2‐year field experiment, we found that a 25% reduction in N fertilizer (R25) reshaped the soil microbial co‐occurrence network, resulting in a topology with higher c…
Optimal Straw Return Rate to Ensure Synergistic Improvement of Maize Productivity and Soil Nutrients
While long‐term film mulching has consistently increased crop yields, it has also contributed to land degradation, prompting adjustments in straw returning rates. However, the responses of soil organic carbon (SOC) and structure to optimal straw returning rates are in need of a deeper understanding. Here, we examined the effects of soil structure, SOC dynamics, and maize productivity under long‐term film mulching with varying straw return rates (…
Nitrogen Reduction Combined With Organic Fertilizer
Partial substitution of chemical fertilizers with organic alternatives can reduce reliance on synthetic nitrogen (N) fertilizers, yet its comprehensive effects on soil quality, productivity, and environmental sustainability remain unclear. A winter wheat–summer maize rotation experiment was conducted to investigate variations in soil properties, crop productivity, N uptake, N 2 O emission, and N cycle functional genes under sufficient N (NF), N r…
Characteristics of Changes to POC and Maoc After Straw Returning in China
Straw returning is widely practiced in China to enhance soil organic carbon (SOC). However, how it affects SOC fractions—specifically, particulate organic carbon (POC) and mineral‐associated organic carbon (MAOC) remains unclear. In this meta‐analysis, we synthesized 792 paired observations to assess the impacts of straw returning on SOC fractions across diverse climatic conditions, soil properties, and agronomic practices in China. The results s…
Nitrogen Application Under Aerated Irrigation Mitigated Drought Stress by Improving Leaf Carbon and Nitrogen Reserves in Tomato
Nitrogen (N) application can improve drought tolerance and water use efficiency (WUE) in crops. Previous studies have shown that aerated irrigation improves crop nitrogen absorption and utilization. However, the mechanisms behind the interaction of water and nitrogen under aerated drip irrigation and its impact on crop WUE remain unclear. This study conducted a 2‐years greenhouse experiment with spring‐summer and autumn‐winter tomato to investiga…
Global warming increases the risk of crop yield failures driven by climate oscillations
Crucial role of rare taxa in preserving bacterial community stability
Stable bacterial communities are essential for maintaining soil functions. However, the role of abundant and rare bacterial taxa in maintaining bacterial community stability remains controversial. To explore the relationship between abundant and rare taxa and bacterial community stability, we used high‐throughput sequencing technology and molecular ecological networks to characterize the distribution of abundant and rare bacterial taxa under diff…
Ephemeral gully development in the hilly and gully region of China's loess plateau
Ephemeral gully erosion is a significant form of soil erosion that visibly impacts soil productivity and restricts land use. While watersheds are fundamental for controlling soil erosion, past studies have focused on individual ephemeral gully or slope types, which do not fully represent changes in ephemeral gullies at the watershed scale. This research used remote sensing images (0.5 m resolution), unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), and field inves…
Incorporating straw‐derived biochars enhances soil nitrogen accumulation and mitigates nitrogen leaching to facilitates crop productivity of mulching farmland in semiarid regions
The long‐term use of film mulching and conventional chemical fertilizers in semiarid regions has resulted in soil degradation and suboptimal fertilizer utilization, necessitating a reevaluation of agricultural practices to enhance resource utilization efficiency and ensure the sustainability of dryland crop production. We conducted a 5‐year study (2017–2021) field experiment in northwest of China, to assess the impact of straw or biochar incorpor…
Abandoned terrace recognition based on deep learning and change detection on the Loess Plateau in China
Terraces are an important cultivated land resource. Terrace abandonment affects the soil quality, soil and water conservation benefits, and biodiversity of terraces. Therefore, it is important to quantify the number and spatial distribution of abandoned terraces to protect cultivated land and food security. However, the traditional remote sensing method cannot identify small plots and make accurate assessment of abandoned farmland quickly in moun…
Bacterial biomarkers are linked more closely to wheat yield formation than overall bacteria in fertilized soil
Soil bacteria play pivotal roles in agroecosystem functioning. However, the immense diversity of soil bacterial communities masks the effects of some species, such as bacterial biomarkers, on soil nutrient cycling and crop growth. We analyzed biological and chemical soil parameters of five fertilization treatments (CK, LN, CN, HN, LNM: 0, 150, 200, 250 kg N hm −2 , 150 kg N hm −2 + 15,000 kg hm −2 sheep manure). The random forest models were used…
Linking microbial carbon‐degrading potential to organic carbon sequestration in fertilized soils
The capacity of soils to store organic carbon (SOC) is vital for agricultural productivity. Soil microorganisms exert a critical role in carbon (C) flow and potentially influence C balance through the decomposition of plant and microbial dead biomass. However, the connection between the microbial degradation potential of plant‐derived and microbial‐derived C and soil organic carbon sequestration (SOCSR) under organic and inorganic nitrogen (N) fe…
Responses of root water uptake to soil water dynamics for three revegetation species on the Loess Plateau of China
In water‐limited ecosystems, soil water regulates root water uptake (RWU) strategies. However, RWU responses to soil water changes under different species are not well‐understood. We assessed RWU responses of three revegetation species [shrub ( Hippophae rhamnoides Linn.), coniferous forest [ Platycladus orientalis (L.) Franco], and broad‐leaved forest ( Robinia pseudoacacia L.) during the dry (May to June) and rainy (July to August) seasons in 2…
Watershed Drought and Ecosystem Services
This study explored the spatiotemporal characteristics of drought and ecosystem services (using soil conservation services as an example) in the YanHe Watershed, which is a typical water basin in the Loess Plateau of China, experiencing soil erosion. Herein, soil conservation was simulated using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), and the relationship between drought, soil conservation services, and meteorological, vegetation, and other fa…
Socio-cognitive constraints and opportunities for sustainable intensification in South Asia
Appreciating and dealing with the plurality of farmers’ perceptions and their contextual knowledge and perspectives of the functioning and performance of their agroecosystems—in other words, their ‘mental models’—is central for appropriate and sustainable agricultural development. In this respect, the sustainable development goals (SDGs) aim to eradicate poverty and food insecurity by 2030 by envisioning social inclusivity that incorporates the p…
Future Smart Food
Achieving Sustainable Development Goal 2: 'Zero Hunger'-eradicating all forms of hunger and malnutrition-is a major challenge in many developing countries. To be successful, agriculture and food policies need to target both production and consumption. Conventional agri-food systems in developing countries could become more sustainable through agricultural diversification. In Asia, over-reliance on a few staple crops is a leading cause of low diet…
An Assessment of Vulnerability to Poverty in Punjab, Pakistan
Strengthening the performance of farming system groups
Farming system groups are fast emerging as key players in the generation and sharing of farmer relevant information in agriculture. These are groups of farmers who, in association with broader agricultural industry members, are involved in conducting locally relevant research and extension activities. The strength of these groups to a large extent depends on the voluntary cooperative participation of growers in group activities. This paper draws …
