Nitrogen and carbon dynamics in grassland soils and plants after application of digestate
(2015-05-20)
A better understanding of effects after digestate application on plant community, soil microbial community as well as nutrient and carbon dynamics is crucial for a sustainable grassland management and the prevention of species and functional diversity loss. The specific research objectives of the thesis were:
(i) to investigate effects after digestate application on grass species and soil microbial community, especially focussing on nitrogen dynamic in the plant-soil system and to examine the suitability of the ...

Effects of transformation processes in 'jubraka' agroforestry systems of the Nuba Mountains, Sudan, on nutrient fluxes
(2014-03-19)
Intensification processes in homegardens of the Nuba Mountains, Sudan, raise concerns about strongly positive carbon (C) and nutrient balances which are expected to lead to substantial element losses from these agroecosystems, in particular via soil gaseous emissions. Therefore, this thesis aimed at the quantification of C, nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) input and output fluxes with a special focus on soil gaseous losses, and the calculation of respective element balances. A further focus in this ...

Conservation agriculture in organic farming: Impacts on weeds and plant-parasitic nematodes during the transition
(2017-10-12)
Der Bodenschutz ist eine der wichtigsten Anforderungen an die Landwirtschaft im 21. Jahrhundert. Daher sind nicht-wendende Bodenbearbeitungssysteme, basierend auf dem Anbau von Untersaaten und Zwischenfrüchten, verstärkt in den Fokus der europäischen Agrarwirtschaft geraten. Allerdings können diese neuartigen Systeme das Spektrum und die Abundanz gewisser Krankheiten, Schädlinge und Unkräuter grundlegend verändern. Ein Beispiel ist die Zunahme von Unkräutern und ihren Samenbanken während der Übergangsphase von ...
