Soil nematodes in the field and fallow - density and diversity by Krassimira Ilieva-Makulec, Renata Franczak, Grzegorz Makulec

“…The higher density of that group in the arable soil than in the fallow indicates the positive response of bacterial-feeding nematodes to the higher nutrient supply after the manure applying. The results show that in three years of fallow nematode communities became more mature and diverse than in the arable soil. …”

Restoration of Degraded Agricultural Land by Alex, Saturday

“…Biological measures such as buffers, conditioner application in direct contact with the soil surface, crop residues using manure protect the soil from erosion. Restoration of saline agricultural land can be achieved through recharge stabilization and reconstruction of saline land through fencing, retain remnant vegetation, revegetation, runoff interception earthworks, and water table lowering.…”

“Pest Forests”, “Utility Forests” and “Cow Bends” by Gerard A. Persoon

“…Their names offer clear indications: in addition to the general name of ‘small polder forests’ (polderbosjes) they are called ‘pest forests’ (pestbosjes or krengenbosjes, places where contaminated or dead animals were dumped), ‘farmers’ utility or coppice forests’ (boerengeriefhoutbosjes or hakhoutbosjes, from which farmers collected all types of useful wood), or ‘cow bends or milk forests’ (koebochten or melkbosjes, places where the cows were milked and where the manure could be collected). With the modernization of agriculture and alternative sources of energy, many of these forest islands have been cleared for the sake of expanding the pastures. …”

« La Terre » de Zola, une histoire biogéochimique de la Beauce au XIXe siècle by Juliette Anglade, Gilles Billen, Josette Garnier

“…Wheat farming had already increased with the replacement of the traditional fallowing practice by leguminous nitrogen-fixing hay recycled by the livestock which transferred this nitrogen to arable land via grazing and manure application. The results show that nitrogen fluxes were approximatively in balance in those mixed-farming systems, thus minimizing nitrogen environmental losses and ensuring good water quality. …”

A Comparison of Physical Soil Organic Matter Fractionation Methods for Amended Soils by Sarah Duddigan, Liz J. Shaw, Paul D. Alexander, Chris D. Collins

“…Using five different physical fractionation methods, on soils either nontreated or with a history of amendment with a range of exogenous organic matter inputs (Irish moss peat; composted horse manure; garden compost) and a resulting range of carbon contents (6.8 to 22.2%), we show that method selection had a significant impact on both the total C recovered and the distribution of the recovered C between unprotected, physically protected, or chemically protected conceptual pools. …”

Comparative Adsorption of Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus Strains to Minnesota Soils by Joaquin Alvarez-Norambuena, Angie Quinonez-Munoz, Cesar A. Corzo, Sagar M. Goyal

“…Despite extensive biosecurity and control measures, the persistence and seasonality of the virus have raised questions about the virus’s environmental dynamics during the fall season when the yearly epidemic onset begins and when crop harvesting and manure incorporation into the field occur. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the potential for PRRSV to percolate through different soil types, simulating conditions that could lead to groundwater contamination which could represent a risk of herd introduction. …”
