Effect of carbon sequestration of wheat (Triticum aestivum L) varieties on soil organic matter
Keywords:
carbon sequestration, winter wheat, plant nutrition, soil organic matterAbstract
Soil fertility is often related to soil organic matter (SOM) in general. Various crop species and varieties, as well as plant nutrition applications may have an impact on the amount of soil organic matter. In a series of small plot field experiments run at the Nagygombos experimental site of the Szent István University, Hungary, the most characteristic agronomic impacts (biological bases, plant nutrition and crop year effects) influencing the efficiency of carbon sequestration of wheat Triticum aestivum L. has been studied. The aim of the research was to observe, identify and quantify agronomic impacts and their interactions that may have an influence on organic matter formation and so on carbon sequestration. The present paper provides information concerning the results of the trial. Crop variety and plant nutrition proved to be powerful factors influencing organic matter production. Interactions have been found between crop plant genotypes and N levels applied. Wheat straw by-products represent a considerable source for soil organic carbon.
