Chemical fertilizers are important for effectively improving soil fertility, promoting crop growth, and increasing grain yield. Therefore, methods that can quickly and accurately measure the amount of fertilizer in the soil should be developed. In this study, 20 groups of soil samples were analyzed using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy, and partial least squares (PLS) and random forest (RF) models were established. The prediction performances of the models for the chemical fertilizer content and pH were analyzed as well. The experimental results showed that the and root mean square error (RMSE) of the chemical fertilizer content in the soil obtained using the full-spectrum PLS model were .7852 and 2.2700 respectively. The predicted for soil pH was .7290, and RMSE was .2364. At the same time, the full-spectrum RF model showed of .9471 (an increase of 21%) and RMSE of .3021 (a decrease of 87%) for fertilizer content. for the soil pH under the RF model was .9517 (an increase of 31%), whereas RMSE was .0298 (a decrease of 87%). Therefore, the RF model showed better prediction performance than the PLS model. The results of this study show that the combination of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy with RF algorithm is a feasible method for rapid determination of soil fertilizer content.

The Kerbernez long-term experiment: A dataset on crop yield and soil organic matter evolution in forage crop rotations and permanent grasslands in a temperate oceanic climate.

Forage crop rotations including grasslands, common in dairy systems, are known to ensure good productivity and limit the decrease of soil organic matter frequently observed in permanent arable land. A dataset was built to compile data from the Kerbernez long-term experiment, conducted in Brittany(France) from 1978 to 2005. This experiment compared the effect of different forage crop rotations fertilized with ammonium nitrate and/or slurry, with or without grassland, on forage production (quantity, quality) and changes in soil physio-chemical characteristics.

In this study, the improvement effect of different organic substances on compacted cohesive soil in southern Xinjiang was discussed, with emphasis on the influence of different organic substances on soil chemical properties and microorganisms, so as to determine the best carbon source input and provide theoretical support for the rational utilization of organic materials in southern Xinjiang. Field experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of farm fertilizer, biochar, commercial organic fertilizer, microbial fertilizer and mineral potassium humate on physical and chemical properties of viscous soil, agronomic properties and yield of cotton, with three gradients for each organic fertilizer. The results showed that: (1) all organic fertilizers improved soil structure, among which farm fertilizer significantly reduced soil bulk density and salinity, increased soil organic matter, total nitrogen and available nutrients, and thus increased cotton height, stem diameter and yield.

Nano-selenium fertilizers can promote plant growth and nitrogen availability. However, little information is available on the effects of nano-selenium on tea leaf quality, soil nutrient availability and associated microbe-driven mechanisms. This study examined the effects of nano-selenium on the tea leaf quality and soil nitrogen cycling in 20-year-old tea plantations when the leaves were sprayed with ammonium or nitrate.

Beyond structural support, plant root systems play crucial roles in the absorption of water and nutrients, fertiliser efficiency and crop yield. However, the molecular mechanism regulating root architecture in rice remains largely unknown. In this study, a short-root rice mutant was identified and named Oscyp22.

Aquaculture systems generate large amounts of sludge that represent serious environmental threats if discharged directly into local ecosystems. However, this nutrient-rich sediment can contribute to nutrient cycling by being applied as an organic fertilizer to ornamental medicinal trees during their early growth stages. To investigate the potential advantages of using recirculating aquaculture system sludge (RASS) and biofloc technology sludge (BFTS) as organic fertilization alternatives to chemical fertilization, a pot trial was conducted at the Faculty of Agriculture, Cairo University, Egypt.
