Effect of Long-Term Organic Cropping Systems on Physico-Chemical Properties of the Soils of Indian

Organic farming is acquire momentum because of knowledge among shoppers for quality food. The unending effects of organic cutting systems on soil quality still not have been studies in analyses. Therefore the present study the long term effect of five cutting systems viz. Poplar (Populus deltoids) + turmeric (Curcuma longa), sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum Linn )+ container gourd (Lagenaria siceraria) - vegetable (Brassica oleracea), basmati rice (Oryza sativa) - wheat (Triticum aestivum), sugarcane corn and maize (Zea mays) + summer moong (Vigna radiate) - grain on soil physico-chemical properties was intentional at Bhagat Puran Singh Natural Agriculture Farm and Research Centre, Amritsar, Punjab (31.5730 N, 75.0660 E). The depth reasonable soil samples from these cropping systems were calm after rabi (2018-19) and kharif (2019) seasons. Poplar + turmeric cropping arrangement has significantly taller soil organic carbon(SOC), soil element stock(SOCS), soil aggregate associated carbon(AAC), water constant soil aggregates (WSA) and mean weight width(MWD) of soil than other cropping methods. Sugarcane fodder cropping method has significantly higher soil pH than added cropping orders while basmati rice - wheat cutting system has significantly lower energetic conductivity (EC) and greater soil bulk density (BD) distinguished to other cropping wholes. In the top soil (0-7.5 and 7.5-15 cm depths) SOC, SOCS, AAS, EC, WSA and MWD were significantly above subsurface layers (15-22.5 cm and 22.5-30 cm wisdom) whereas soil pH and BD were significantly lower in surface soil than subsurface soil.
