Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Deep tillage and subsoiling increased soil porosity.
- Intervention effect Deep tillage and subsoiling reduced soil bulk density in surface and subsurface soil.
- Intervention effect Deep tillage and subsoiling reduced soil compaction by 6.12% in the 0–15 cm layer at maximum tillering.
- Intervention effect Deep tillage and subsoiling gave the highest N uptake, 158.5 kg ha−1, compared with all other tillage practices.
- Intervention effect Maintaining a suboptimal moisture regime with deep tillage and subsoiling gave the highest irrigation water use efficiency, 157.16 kg cane per kg N applied.
- Association Soil microbial biomass carbon was higher in the ratoon crop than in the plant crop.
- Intervention effect Deep tillage and subsoiling gave higher soil microbial biomass carbon in the ratoon crop at initial tillering, 1082.9 mg CO2-C g−1 soil day−1 at 15–30 cm depth.
- Mechanism Improved soil biological and chemical properties from the physical changes are responsible for higher sugarcane growth and yield.
- Recommendation Soil health in sugarcane can be sustained by subsoiling and deep tillage with a 0.75 IW/CPE moisture regime and 150 kg N ha−1.
