This study explores agronomic management (AM) effects on soil parameters under diverse conditions. Investigating tillage practices (TP), nutrient (NM), crop rotation (CR), organic matter (OM), irrigation (IM), and mulching (MS), it aims to reveal impacts productivity, availability, microbial activity, overall health. Varied TP affect quality through compaction, porosity, erosion risk. Proper NM is vital for cycling, preventing imbalances acidification. CR disrupts pest cycles, reduces weed pressure, boosts recycling. OM enhances by influencing carbon, pH, fertility, water retention. Optimizing IM regulates content without inducing waterlogging. MS contributes content, retention, structure, temperature-moisture regulation, benefiting biota, aggregation, health agricultural productivity. The review emphasizes integrated nutrient, CR, management's positive impact fertility activity. Different variations production. Judicious implementation of these essential sustainable agriculture. synthesis identifies uncertainties proposes research directions optimizing productivity while ensuring environmental sustainability. Ongoing inquiry can guide a balanced approach between yields resilient stewardship future generations.

Due to the adverse effect of global climate change on agricultural water management, maintaining soil moisture in root zone is essential for optimal crop productivity. For effective irrigation, we used organic mulching increase yield and productivity (WP) Valencia orange arid/desert climates. Here, rice straw irrigation rates [100, 85, 70% evapotranspiration reference (ETc)] nutrient contents, quality, trees was evaluated. Under field conditions, application mulch significantly increased concentration some elements photosynthetic pigments but reduced proline contents leaves. Soil fruit inflorescence retention, resulted a higher number weight branches, without compromising their taste or texture, compared treatment mulching. Both also affected use efficiency (WUE). This evident when yield/fed by 22.7–23.8, 20.7–31.5, 6.2–16.9% under at 100, ETc, respectively, traditional conditions 100% ETc mulch. Although maximum WUE 5.72–5.84 kg/m3 it 5.31–5.40, 4.57–4.64 respectively. Organic showed superior results with respect increasing yields WP, while saving 15.4% comparable benefit/cost were irrigated 85% ETc. Together, this study could be promising strategy adaptation sustainable management.

Compared to conventional irrigation and fertilization, the Water-fertilizer coupling can significantly enhance efficiency of water fertilizer utilization, thereby promoting crop growth increasing yield. Targeting challenges poor growth, low yield, inefficient utilization in arid region northwest China under fertilization practices. Therefore, a two-year on-farm experiment 2022 2023 was conducted study effects water-fertilizer regulation on pumpkin consumption (ET), use efficiency. Simultaneously comprehensive evaluation multiple objectives carried out using principal component analysis (PCA) methods, so as propose an suitable scheme for region. The set up two-factor trial integration technology three volume (W1 = 37.5 mm, W2 45.5 W3 52.5mm) organic application amounts (F1 3900-300 kg ha -1 , F2 4800-450 kg·ha F3 5700-600 ), with traditional from local farmers control treatments (CK). results indicated that affected (P<0.05). Pumpkin yield increased volume. Increasing levels within certain range benefited plant dry matter accumulation, however, excessive beyond level had inhibited those. same enhanced utilization.

A large amount of agricultural waste is produced annually in China, and these wastes include crop residues the manure generated from poultry livestock farming. But there still a considerable portion that not recycled disposed or directly burned. Therefore, if can be reasonably utilized, it will generate significant socio-economic environmental benefits. Soil salinization has become one main threats to soil health, considered an effective tool for improving saline alkali land due its unique properties. Utilizing improve advantages such as wide material sources, low cost, risks. This article reviews effectiveness potential physical, chemical, biological mechanisms health soils. Agricultural mainly used through direct return field, burial salt barriers, pyrolysis carbonization into biochar, composting, which play positive role aspects.

Returning crop residues to the field after harvesting is a proven effective strategy for improving soil fertility, carbon sequestration, and productivity. However, relationships between residue return modes, SOC nutrient contents, yields are still unclear. In this study, trial was conducted investigate effects of different maize straw i.e., mulching (SMU), deep ploughing (SDP), control without (CK), on organic (SOC) contents in layers 0–40 cm Mollisol. The yield were evaluated. Compared with CK, SMU SDP significantly increased SOC, total nitrogen (N), available N, phosphorus (P), P all layers. Relative SMU, P, lower 0–10 cm, but they higher 20–40 SDP. Redundancy analysis indicated that major factors controlling yield. Structural equation modeling further showed modes indirectly affected by directly preferentially affecting N contents. results beneficial increasing at surface subsurface soils, respectively.

Plastic film mulching improves the soil water content and temperature and, thus, contributes to enhanced grain yield in arid semi-arid areas, such as Northwest China. However, traditional film-covering methods, plastic films are difficult recycle, causing environmental issues. Therefore, developing cultivation methods with recovery rates is important for sustainable agricultural development. Here, we evaluated how planting method affected temperature, content, rate, by applying following three patterns crop, foxtail millet, 2021–2022: no (NP), (MP), on edge (PFE); latter, holes were not punched crops planted approximately 5 cm from edge. The results 2021 showed that biomass ranged 27.69 g 33.76 per plant, was increased 21.9% 3.2% PFE compared NP MP, respectively. 2022, 52.5% 17.7% In 2021, highest observed (2480 kg/hm2), followed MP (2470 kg/hm2) (2343 kg/hm2); a significantly higher than NP. Although PFE, it high MP. relatively root growth process, stimulated production of exudates (acetic acid citric acid), enzyme (sucrase urease) activity. Increases organic acids enzymes assisted decomposition matter induced levels available nutrients, nitrogen phosphorus, reuse contributed yields. addition, fewer model, which improved recovery, rate These indicate proposed unperforated film-covered pattern suitable millet sandy soil.
