Conservation tillage methods, including straw return (SR) and no (NT), are widely used to improve the soil organic carbon (SOC) content crop yield. However, applying SR or NT separately has become a common practice for farmers producing different crops those in regions. Evaluating effects of on SOC content, emissions, yield important guiding correct application conservation promoting sustainable agricultural development. Therefore, we conducted meta-analysis based 1014 sets data obtained China assess Compared with return, increased by 10% 8.6%, respectively, but significant impact emissions. conventional tillage, 2.9% reduced emissions 18% 3.9%, respectively. We also found that combined had an additive effect, where combination improved more than alone. If alone, specific climatic conditions, characteristics, field management strategies need be considered maximize SOC. In particular, should limited hydrothermal conditions (low temperature low precipitation) areas rice–wheat rotation is implemented. can under any climate it effectively increase continuous wheat cropping areas.

Abstract Soil compaction is generally viewed as one of the most serious soil degradation problems and a determining factor in crop productivity worldwide. It imperative to understand processes involved meet future global challenges food security. In this work, we used co‐occurring keyword analysis summarize 3491 papers on over past 40 years, elaborating main research focuses such causes, influencing factors, effects crops, mitigation prevention compaction. This review provides comprehensive discussion compaction, including altering structure, increasing bulk density (BD) penetration resistance (PR), reducing porosity hydraulic properties. Notably, based 387 data points 11 about BD, our results demonstrated average, increased BD by 7.6%, 6.9%, 3.2% medium‐, coarse‐, fine‐textured soils, respectively. Based 264 18 papers, 0–30 cm layer, (by 91% coarse‐textured, 84.2% medium‐textured, 8.8% soils). Compacted limits access roots water nutrients, leading poor root development reduced productivity. There was difference sensitivity between different but growth yield showed an overall worsening trend with degrees collected 142 yields found that wheat, barley, corn, soybean decreased average 4.1%, 15.1%, 37.7%, 22.7%, respectively, range 1.1–1.8 Mg/cm 3 after Additionally, effectiveness measures, natural, tillage, biological, systematically discussed. Compared should be top priority although there still lack practical methods. conditions agricultural machinery type are factors affecting risk process Therefore, it particularly important optimize working field farm reduce initiative pivotal for ensuring sustainable systems production recovering from compacted soil.
