| Research Abstract |
1.Upland field
Recycling of nitrogen was examined in No-tilled filed and tiled field (plow and rotary) with cover crops, rye and hairy vetch (HV). HV absorbed most amount of nitrogen(N) from the soil and its N was transferred to the subsequently produced land rice. Microorganism increased in the soil with cover crops, especially in near ground surface in no-tilled soil. Number of the large soil animal increased in no-tilled soil. It was supposed that New soil ecosystem that N recycling would be promoted was established in no-tilled field with cover crops.
2.Paddy field
In the paddy field mulched or incorporated 15N-labeled cover crops, the absorbed efficiency of N mineralized from cover crops and rice growth were larger in incorporation than mulch treatment. Legume cover crops were decomposed in the paddy earlier than non-legumes. White clover, oats and mustard are promising cover crop for rice production in south-west region in Japan and decomposing time can be controlled by irrigation technique.
3.Greenhouse
Higher concentration of Nitrate-N was maintained near soil surface in the row covered with HV residue in greenhouse. Current yield was obtained in HV mulch even if N fertilizer reduced to half amount of conventional amount. About 17% of N mineralized from HV residue was absorbed into tomato plant and the absorbed efficiency of N mineralized from HV was high in reduced N application.
4.Estimation of the ratio of grass and legume in mix-cultivation
Multi-wavelength analysis of reflex light on the grass-legume mixed canopies using a hyper spectrum camera was useful to Estimation of the ratio of grass and legume.
