Soil Hydrological Attributes of an Integrated Crop-Livestock Agroecosystem: Increased Adaptation through Resistance to Soil Change by Mark A. Liebig, Don L. Tanaka, Scott L. Kronberg, Eric J. Scholljegerdes, Jim F. Karn

“…Such concerns are compounded by projections of more frequent high-intensity rainfall events from anticipated climate change, which would act to increase surface runoff and soil erosion. A study was conducted to evaluate the effects of residue management, frequency of hoof traffic, season, and production system (e.g., integrated annual cropping versus perennial grass) on infiltration rates from 2001 through 2008 in central North Dakota, USA. …”

The Effectiveness and Mechanisms of China’s Grain Support Policies in Relation to Grain Yield—An Evaluation of a Wide Range of Policies by Tianjian Li, Fan Yang, Haotian Zhang, Qingning Lin

“…The conclusions are as follows: (1) grain support policies significantly contributed to an increase in grain production; (2) grain production gains from grain support policies are more pronounced in less industrialized and disaster-affected areas; (3) a mechanism analysis showed that grain support policies enhanced grain production by expanding the scale of food cultivation, upgrading agricultural mechanization, and strengthening soil erosion control; and (4) further analysis showed that grain support policies increased pesticide use. …”

Evaluation of Sustainable Land Management Practices in Kaharo Subcounty Kabale District. by Nasaasira, Blair

“…The effects of land management practices identified in the study area were; reducing soil erosion, improving soil fertility, controls crop pest and diseases, reduces soil compaction, reduce leaching of nutrients and increase soil water uptake and the farmers have knowledge about land management practices in the study area knowing that crop rotation maintains soil fertility, land management practices help in reducing land degradation covering the surface with grass or crop residues reduce and respondents noted that terracing helps us to reduce run-off and rate of erosion. …”

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE CONSERVATION TECHNOLOGY OF SPRING CEREALS IN THE TRANSYLVANIAN PLATEAU by Teodor Rusu, Felicia Chețan, Ileana Bogdan, Paula Ioana Moraru, Adrian Ioan Pop, Camelia Alămorean

“…In the hilly area of the Transylvanian Plateau, due to the non-application of specific cultivation technologies, the failure to comply with the requirements to combat limiting phenomena and factors, in particular soil erosion, coupled on the other hand with the lack of means of production, the non-existence of technologically adequate agricultural machinery systems, but also insufficient in terms of quantity, modest levels of production have been obtained in recent years. …”
