Typical Chernozems

This article analyzes the physic-chemical properties of typical chernozems. According to the methods, a laboratory study was performed. Physic-chemical parameters that are typodiagnostic for subfacial classification division of typical chernozems of the Prydnistersk Podillya are determined. Typical chernozems of the Prydnistersk Podillya are low-humus (2.78–3.98%). With depth, the humus content decreases by an average of 0.2% for every 10 cm, which indicates a uniformly accumulative type of distribution of organic matter in the profile of chernozems. In the same direction, humus reserves are declining. There is a spatial correlation between the humus content and the amount of physical clay in the fine soil. Humic acids predominate in the humus to a depth of 90–100 cm (Sgk: Sfk is 1.12–1.78). The general tendency of relative “fulvatization” of the arable layer as a result of its agrotechnical depletion is noticed. In relation to SGC to total organic C, chernozems of the study area are characterized by a high and very high degree of humification of organic matter. It is highest (62–70%) in the soils of the key section “Humentsi”, decreasing to 52–62% and 43–63% in the western direction. The humic acids of typical chernozems are dominated by calcium humates (GK-2). The largest number of them (29–35%) is concentrated on the contact boundary of humus and carbonate profiles. The convex nature of the distribution curves of the fraction of 2 humic acids and a sharp decrease in its content deeper than 100 cm, indicates their high migration capacity and the possibility of significant deposition of only a significant excess of calcium carbonates. The intensity of migration processes of the GK-2 fraction decreases in the direction of increasing the stiffness of hydrothermal conditions, due to the pulling of carboxylic acid salts closer to the soil surface, supersaturation of the solution with calcium bicarbonate, and as a consequence, increasing the total alkalinity in the humus horizon. The capacity of cation exchange (ECO) of typical chernozems is quite high (29–32 mmol-eq / 100 g of soil) with the dominance of calcium and magnesium cations in the composition of the soil-absorbing complex (GVC). There is a general tendency to increase these indicators in chernozems with low values ​​of SCC of the territory. The pH of the aqueous extract of typical chernozems of the Prydnistersk Podillya increases with depth from weakly acidic in the arable horizon to weakly and medium-alkaline within the carbonate profile. The reasons for such changes in the increase with the depth of the concentration of Ca2 + bicarbonates, which in their dissociation leads to an increase in the amount of hydroxyl ion and increase the alkalinity of the soil. The carbonate profile of typical chernozems is dominated by migratory forms of carbonate neoplasms - mold, carbonate plaque, veins. The vertical curve of carbonate content has an eluvial-illuvial type of profile structure. The content and reserves of carbonates in the 1.5-meter layer of typical chernozems increase from the west (434–714 t / ha) to the east (979–1847 t / ha). Key words: physic-chemical properties, typical chernozems, humic horizon, humic acids, carbonate profile.

The humus state of chernozems typical of Pre-Dnisterian Podolia is investigated. It has been established that for the content of humus the chernozems typical of the Pre-Dnisterian Podolia are low humus (2.78–3.98 %). With depth, the content of humus decreases gradually, indicating a uniformly accumulative type of distribution of organic matter in the soil profile. It is determined that in typical chernozems the phenomenon of moderate migration of humic acids is observed, thus forming a deep humus profile. Humic content to the depth of 90–100 cm is dominated by humic acids (Cga:Cfais 1.12–1.78). The general tendency of relative “pluralisation” of the arable lay eras a result of its agronomic exhaustion has been observed. In relation to the Cga to the general organic C, the chernozems soil of the study area is characterized by a high and very high degree of humification of organic matter. It is proved that the intensity of the migration processes of humic acids decreases in the direction of strengthening the hardness of the GTK territory, due to the tightening of calcium carbonates closer to the surface of the soil. Its middle and lower parts were formed, to a large extent, by infiltration of humic acids, moreover, mainly due to the calcium humates. In the case of the use of chernozems without the use of organic fertilizers, the processes of mineralization of plant residues and humus are more active, and the balance of humus is scarce. However, when applying a setoff measures, you cannot only prevent loss of humus but also increased their content. Such a complex should include the following measures: soil replenishment with organic substances, in particular, the planting of perennial grasses and sown crops, the abandonment of a higher grain of grain; minimizing cultivation; creation of optimal ratios of crops in crop rotation to reduce humus losses; the application of meliorants, which would ensure the strengthening of soil fixation of newly formed humus substances. Key words: Pre-Dnisterian Podolia, Haplic Chernozems, humus, humic acids, fulvic acids.

Total organic carbon (TC) in 32 acidic surface (0–10 cm) soils was divided into 3 fractions (C1, C2, and C3) based on oxidisability by different strengths of KMnO4 (33 mM and 167 mM). With the methodology used, ease of oxidation decreased in the order C1>C2>C3. Several fundamental soil chemical properties were also determined, i.e. ECEC, CEC at pH 6·5 (CEC6·5), slope of the charge curve (ΔCEC), pH buffer capacity, (pHBC), P sorption capacity using a single addition index (PSI150), and content of organically complexed Al. All soils had pH (1:5 water) <6·5, and comprised a wide range of soil types and clay contents. Multiple step-up regression indicated that C fractions were significantly (P < 0·05) correlated with ECEC, ΔCEC, CEC6·5, and pHBC. These results reinforce the critical importance of soil organic matter to the fundamental soil chemical properties of predominantly variable charge soils. The intercorrelations between the various oxidisable C fractions made it difficult to elucidate if degree of oxidisability had any bearing on the reactivity of the organic matter. ECEC was primarily correlated with C1, whereas all C fractions had highly significant (P < 0·01) effects on ΔCEC and pHBC. The fraction which was most difficult to oxidise, C3, made a significant (P < 0·01) contribution to CEC6·5 when combined with clay and ECEC in a multiple regression equation. Generally, one or other of the C fractions was better correlated with the fundamental soil chemical properties than TC. This simple empirical fractionation of soil organic C may therefore be a useful tool for assessing the effects of soil management on these properties.

AbstractThis study concerned the fragility of maritime Antarctic soils under increasing temperature, using the C dynamics and structural characteristics of humic substances as indicators. Working with four representative soils from King George Island (Lithic Thiomorphic Cryosol (LTC1 and LTC2), Ornithogenic Cryosol (OG) and Gelic Organosol (ORG)) we evaluated the total organic C and nitrogen contents, the oxidizable C and humic substances. Soil samples were incubated to assess the amount of C potentially mineralizable at temperatures typical of an Antarctic summer (5–14°C). Humic acids showed a higher aliphatic character and a smaller number of condensed aromatic groups, which suggests that these molecules from Antarctic soils are generally less resistant to microbial degradation than humic acids molecules from other regions. Based on 13C NMR spectra of MAS and CP/MAS, samples of soil humic acids of mineral soils (LTC1 and LTC2) have a higher content of aliphatic C, and heteroatom C, with lower levels of carbonyl and aromatic C, when compared with organic matter-rich soils (OG and ORG). Increasing incubation temperature led to a higher rate of mineralizable C in all soils. A sequence of soil fragility was suggested - LTC1 and LTC2 > OG > ORG - which showed a correlation with the Q10 coefficient and the ratio of labile and recalcitrant C fractions of soil organic matter (R2 = 0.83).

On the basis of experimental and literary data the assessment of humus state of arable layer of differently cultivated typical agrarian-grey heavy loamy non-eroidated soils of the center of the Non-Black Earth zone of Russia was carried out. The gradations of humus content corresponding to the different level of soil fertility were determined. The optimal interval of humus content is calculated on the basis of its minimal value in non-erodized agrarian soils of the region and optimal limits of transforming organic matter. It is shown that at development of grey soils under forest in arable horizonThe content of humus, fulvic acids, mobile humic acids, extracted 0.1 n. NaOH, decreases, and the amount of humic acids associated with Ca sharply increases with the increase of their optical density and ratio to mobile humic acids to the level in agronomic black soil. Further domestication of agrarian soils on the background of systematic application of increased doses of organic fertilizers, along with increasing the content of humus, there are reverse changes in the ratio of these fractions of humic acids. At the same time, the optical density of humic acids associated with clay minerals decreases significantly, which indicates the processes of their renewal and enrichment by aliphatic structures. Criteria of difference between agrarian soils and podzolic soils and agronomic chernozems by quality of humus in arable horizon are discussed.

The relationships between fractions of soil organic carbon (C) oxidised by varying strengths of potassium permanganate (KMnO4) and important soil physical and chemical properties were investigated for Queensland Ferrosols. These soils spanned a wide range of clay contents (31-83%), pH values (4·4-7·9; 1 : 5 water), and total C contents (12· 1-111 g/kg). Carbon fractions were derived by oxidation with 33 mM (C1), 167 mM (C2), and 333 mM (C3) KMnO4, while organic C and total C were determined by Heanes wet oxidation and combustion, respectively. Aggregate stability was determined by wet sieving soil from the surface crust after 30 min of high intensity (100 mm/h), simulated rainfall on disturbed samples in the laboratory. The proportion of aggregates <0·125 mm (P125) was used as the stability indicator because of the high correlation between this size class and the final rainfall infiltration rate (r2 = 0qa86, n = 42). The soil organic C fraction most closely correlated with P125 was C1 (r2 = 0·79, n = 42). This fraction was also highly correlated with final, steady-state infiltration rates in field situations where there were no subsurface constraints to infiltration (r2 = 0·74, n = 30). Multiple linear regression techniques were used to identify the soil properties determining effective cation exchange capacity (ECEC, n = 89). Most variation in ECEC (R2 = 0 ·72) was accounted for by a combination of C1 (P < 0·0001) and pH (P < 0·0001). These results confirm the very important role played by the most labile (easily oxidised) fraction of soil organic matter (C1) in key components of the chemical and physical fertility of Ferrosols. Management practices which maintain adequate C1 concentrations are essential for sustainable cropping on these soils.

The influence of grasscover in restoring the eroded soils was carried out in Umudike, Southestern Nigeria. The use of grass has attracted considerable research attention with respect to forage production and erosion control. Little information is available on the influence of this grasscover management on soil physical and chemical properties. Four different grasses namely: Paspalum notatum(PN), Panicum maximum(PM), Axonopus compressus(AC) and Vetiver grass(VG)- Vetiveria zizanioid/es) were used in this study and their influence on eroded soil tested in two locations. This study has shown that the soils planted with the grasses gave significantly (p<0.05) higher results of the physical and some chemical properties than their adjacent open bare soil. In all the parameters considered in this study, the values obtained in soils under Paspalum notatum was higher than those obtained in PM, AC, VG and their adjacent bare soils(BS). The soils under PN had generally lower bulk density, higher total porosity and hydraulic conductivity than other grasses and adjacent open bare soil in both locations. The soil under PN proved best, outperforming PM, VG,and AC in stabilizing soil aggregates. Planting of PN on eroded soil significantly (p<0.05) increased the mean weight diameter from 0.77mm (BSPN1) to 1.31mm (PN1) and 0.82mm (BSPN2) to 1.48mm (PN2) for Locations 1 and 2, respectively. The relative improvement in Location 1 was in the order : PN1>AC1=VG1>PM1>BSVG1=BSPN1>BSAC1=BSPM1. Also, soils under PN had significantly higher values of pH, organic C and organic matter, total nitrogen and available P more than other grasses and their adjacent open soils. The magnitude of increase in Location 1 was in the order : PN1>AC1>PM1=VG1>BSVG1=BSPN1=BSAC1>BSPM1. Location 2 also increased in the same trend. The organic carbon content of PN increased from 0.73%(BSPN1) to 2.89%(PN1) and 0.88%(BSPN2) to 2.91%(PN2) in Locations 1 and 2, respectively. Also, the organic matter content of the soil increased in the same trend as organic carbon content.

&lt;p&gt;The exploitation of soils due to farming has produced a progressive loss of soil organic matter (SOM) over the years. At the same time, the degradation of SOM has led to a decline of several ecosystem services provided by soil, especially in mountain. Against this background, the partnership between Department of Physics and Earth Sciences of University of Ferrara and Department of Agricultural and Food Sciences of University of Bologna led to the creation of the SaveSOC2 project (Save Soil Organic Carbon), funded by Rural Development Programme of Emilia-Romagna Region. This project primarily seeks to investigate and promote carbon storage processes in agricultural soils of Emilia-Romagna Region (NE Italy). The present study outlines an overview about the SOM dynamics of &amp;#8220;I Rodi&amp;#8221; organic farm, located in the Modena Apennine. &amp;#8220;I Rodi&amp;#8221; produces and processes small organic fruits, especially raspberries. Three different sites (grassland -G, very low productive raspberries -LR, and good productive raspberries -GR) have been selected and the topsoils (0-15 cm and 15-30 cm) have been investigated. Elemental and isotopic analyses of soil C were performed using an EA-IRMS. In particular, the application of the Thermally Based Separation protocol [1] allowed the determination of both inorganic (IC) and organic (OC) carbon contents in each soil sample. OC accounted for 93.50% of the total carbon (1.72-4.84 wt.%). The negative &amp;#948;&lt;sup&gt;13&lt;/sup&gt;C values of the total carbon (from -27.8 to -19.7 &amp;#8240;) confirmed the predominance of OC over IC in the investigated soils. The average values of OC isotopic C signature showed a decreasing trend among the three sites (-28.2, -27.2 and -25.8&amp;#8240; for GR, G and LR, respectively), with the low productivity site having the highest &amp;#948;&lt;sup&gt;13&lt;/sup&gt;C value. The isotopic C signature of separated organic C fractions (0-15 cm topsoils) showed that humin (832-879 g/kg), which is the SOM fraction mostly interacting with the soil mineral phase and the largest pool, confirmed the observed trend (-27.5, -27.0, -26.4&amp;#8240;, GR, G and LR). The humic acids (6-17 g/kg) showed similar trend but lower &amp;#948;&lt;sup&gt;13&lt;/sup&gt;C values in all sites (-28.5, -28.0, -26.8 &amp;#8240;, GR, G and LR). Finally, fulvic acids (5-10 g/kg) differed, having dissimilar trend and values of &amp;#948;&lt;sup&gt;13&lt;/sup&gt;C (-27.1, -26.8, -26.0 &amp;#8240; for G, GR and LR). Comparing to G, the GR data suggested that organic management i) did not decrease quantity and quality of organic matter, and ii) it was more efficient in OC stabilisation, increasing the amount of less transformed OC in both humin and humic acids (more negative &amp;#948;&lt;sup&gt;13&lt;/sup&gt;C values). In the LR site, instead, the observed trend can be due to low suitability of this soil to raspberries production, negatively affecting both crop yields and organic C dynamics. In our opinion, in order to combine agricultural productivity and its sustainability, more attention should be paid both to soil management and suitability in the area.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;[1] Natali C., Bianchini G., Vittori Antisari L. 2018.

14C- and 15N-labelled wheat straw, and tops or roots of a pasture legume (either Medicago littoralis or Trifolium subterraneum) were incorporated into topsoils at 12 field sites in southern Australia. These sites were representative of soil types widely used for wheat growing in each region. The soils varied markedly in their physical and chemical properties (e.g. pH, texture and organic matter content). Based on amounts of residual I4C (averaged for all sites), the legume tops decomposed more extensively than did wheat straw, especially soon after incorporation. To a lesser extent the legume tops decomposed more extensively than legume roots, and T. subterraneum tops more than M. littoralis tops; root decomposition for both legumes was similar. For example, after 1 year, the residual organic 14C from wheat straw, M. littoralis tops, T. subterraneum tops and legume roots accounted for 48%, 41%, 38% and 54% of their respective inputs. After two years, residual 14C of wheat straw accounted for 30% of the input. Differences in decomposition due to climate and soil properties were generally small, but at times were statistically significant; these differences related positively with rainfall and negatively with soil clay content, but showed no relationship with pH or soil organic C and N. Some N was mineralized from all plant materials, the greatest from legume tops, the least from wheat straw. After 1 year, residual organic 15N accounted for 56%, 63% and 78% respectively of input l5N from legume tops and roots and from wheat straw. The influence of climate and soil properties on amounts of residual organic I5N was small and generally was consistent with those found for residual 14C. AS an exception, the residual organic 15N from wheat straw was negatively related to soil organic N levels, whereas residual I5N of legume tops and roots and residual 14C of all plant materials were not influenced by soil organic matter levels. These results are discussed in terms of the turnover of N in soils amended with isotope labelled plant materials of different available C:N ratios.

Soil fertility and organic matter have been hindered due to unsustainable agricultural practices. There is a need to develop and better understand the effect of combined organic amendments that have the potential to increase soil fertility and agricultural system sustainability. Compost incorporations, the use of coordinated fallows and other biological amendments are alternatives to better the soil and increase crop yield. Information is scarce about the effect of combined organic amendments over soil chemical properties and their impact on vegetable production. The objective of the present study was to assess the effect of a combination of organic amendments we termed soil treatment management cycles (STMC) on soil chemical properties and eggplant yield in a San Antón soil. The STMC amendments consisted of incorporating organic matter from coffee pulp compost, planting and incorporation of a mixture of four green manure species, adding a mycorrhizae culture to the soil as well as compost tea. The different STMC were: control, no STMC (CL0); one STMC (CL1); two consecutive STMC (CL2); and three consecutive STMC (CL3). Results showed that CL1 was enough to significantly increase organic matter, P, K and S content in the soil compared with the non-amended soil. The concentration of Ca was significantly increased by three (CL3), and that of Mg by three (CL3) and two (CL2) STMC, compared to the other treatments. All treatments significantly changed soil pH, buffering it toward neutrality with increasing cycles when compared with pH 7.9 of no STMC control soils. Treatments CL1, CL2 and CL3 increased humic acid content 2.8, 3.8 and 5.9 times, respectively, when compared with CL0. Humic acids, extracted from unamended soils exhibited more condensation and more aromaticity when compared with those of amended soils. Nevertheless, the humic acids of amended soils showed high levels of polymerization. The enhancement in soil properties promoted by STMC resulted in an increase in eggplant fruit yield and biomass production.
