Abstract:
Lime and biochar amendments are widely used to immobilize cadmium (Cd) in agricultural soils and to ensure food security. However, the effects of these two soil amendments on the mechanisms of Cd stress alleviation in crops are unclear. Therefore, the effects of lime and biochar applications on Cd uptake, transport, subcellular distribution, antioxidant system, N metabolism, and related factors were examined in a soil-Brassica napus L. (B. napus) system. We found that lime application significantly increased the root Cd content by 41.5% but decreased Cd TF and shoot Cd by 81.0% and 74.3%, resp

Acid sulfate soils are of poor quality and characterized by extreme acidity, nutrient deficiency, and high Al and Fe toxicity. Developing soil amendments from local resources is crucial to reduce input costs. This study investigated the effect of the integrated soil amendments (biochar, compost, and lime) on corn growth and the acid sulfate soil quality. Using randomized block design, this study tested nine type soil amendments, namely A (100% rice husk ash), B (100% rice husk biochar), C (100% compost), D (100% dolomite), H (100% humate), ACD (30% rice husk ash + 30% compost + 40% dolomite),

Copper (Cu)-based fungicides have been an important tool against disease in viticulture since the 19th century. However, their prolonged use can lead to Cu accumulation in the soil and negatively affect soil microbiology and plant growth. The application of biochar (BC)-based amendments is a promising mitigation strategy, due to BC’s longevity in the soil and its potential to complex Cu. This study investigated temporal changes in the efficiency of various compost- and BC-based amendments to immobilize Cu in a calcareous and a slightly acidic Austrian vineyard soil.

Iodine loss is common in the soil of hilly regions due to higher precipitation rates and steeper slopes. Iodine deficiency in soil reduces iodine’s bioavailability to fruits and vegetables and consequently may contribute to health complications.

Therefore, a study was carried out to investigate iodine loss during surface runoff.

Abstract:
A 2-month incubation study was carried out using two soil types to determine the nitrogen mineralization of different inorganic–organic amendments. The following seven treatments (Ts) were established: T1 = control (no amendment), T2 = 5 g of dry algae per kg of soil (100%DA), T3 = 136 g of agri-mat per kg of soil (100%GAM), T4 = 61 g of ground grass per kg of soil (100%GG), T5 = 0.6 g of N using lime–ammonium nitrate (LAN) + 2.5 g of dry algae (50%DA50NF), T6 = 50%GAM50NF, and T7 = 50%GG50NF.

Trials were conducted for ameliorating the red lateritic soils of Vamban with organic and inorganic amendments under maize black gram cropping sequence. The results revealed that application of pressmud (5 t/ha) significantly increased the grain yield of maize. While soil pH was significantly increased due to pressmud (5 Uha) and lime (2 t and 4 t/ha), soil hardness was only marginally influenced. Application of amendments did not influence soil available nitrogen and phosphorus, but FYM (5 tha) significantly increased the soil available potassium. There was indications of the residual effect

Abstract:
Soil acidity is a widespread problem in Victoria, Australia, affecting at least 4 million ha of agricultural land. Soil amendments such as lime and organic materials may ameliorate acid soils, resulting in raised soil pH and increased availability of plant nutrients such as phosphorus (P). The addition of lime, lignite, and compost significantly modified P sorption in an acid soil, with the degree of change highly dependent upon the source of P applied. The application of 2.5 t/ha of lime increased P sorption for all P sources, while P sorption was decreased in the lignite and compost treatmen
