Residue Retention

Conservation agriculture (CA) including reduced or no-tillage and crop residue retention, is known to be a self–sustainable system as well as an alternative to residue burning. The present study evaluated the effect of reduced tillage coupled with residue retention under different cropping systems on soil properties and crop yields in a Vertisol of a semiarid region of central India. Two tillage systems – conventional tillage (CT) with residue removed, and reduced tillage (RT) with residue retained – and six major cropping systems of this region were examined after 3 years of experimentation. Results demonstrated that soil moisture content, mean weight diameter, percent water stable aggregates (>0.25mm) for the 0–15cm soil layer were significantly (Pmoderately labile>less labile. At the 0–15cm depth, the contributions of moderately labile, less labile and non-labile C fractions to total organic C were 39.3%, 10.3% and 50.4% respectively in RT and corresponding values for CT were 38.9%, 11.7% and 49.4%. Significant differences in different C fractions were observed between RT and CT. Soil microbial biomass C concentration was significantly higher in RT than CT at 0–15cm depth. The maize–chickpea cropping system had significantly (P–1 followed by soybean+pigeon pea (2:1) intercropping (3.50 t ha–1) and soybean–wheat cropping systems (2.97 t ha–1). Thus, CA practices could be sustainable management practices for improving soil health and crop yields of rainfed Vertisols in these semiarid regions.

This research was conducted in the planting area of pineapple (Ananas comosus) PT. GGP Terbanggi Besar Central Lampung indicated attacked by pests simphylid in March 2014 until May 2014. Analysis of soil physical properties carried out in the Laboratory of Soil Science, Department of Agrotechnology, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Lampung. The method used in this study is a survey method. Soil sampling conducted at three locations indicated simphylid pests. Soil sampling done at some point and some depth. Results from this research that pest symphilid most numerous in one location with a number of acquisition 172 tail where the location of the physical properties of good land which the density value of the content is low, the total pore low, macropores and high hardness low ground , allowing sinphylid be able to live and thrive. While at the location of two and three with the condition density value of the content is high, the total pore high, macropores low, and violence high soil pests simphylid not so much discovered as simphylid can not multiply and survive on the physical condition of poor soil Keywords: Pineapple, Symphilid, and physical properties of soil
