Crop Residue Management

Aim: Assessment of energy input output relationship, greenhouse gases emission and carbon footprint of diversified jute-rice cropping systems under different nutrients and crop residue management practices. Methodology: The inventory was prepared for all inputs required for crop cultivation and outputs of crops in cropping systems. These inputs and outputs were converted into energy by multiplying with energy equivalent coefficient and CO2 emission coefficient following standard procedure. Results: Jute-rice-baby corn cropping system recorded significantly higher net energy (324 GJ ha-1) and energy use efficiency (8.02). Among different nutrient and crop management (NCRM) practices, significantly higher energy output (336.9 GJ ha-1) and net energy (291.4 GJ ha-1) recorded 100% NPK with crop residue. The highest carbon footprint recorded with rice-rice (0.44 kg COe kg-1 economic yield) and the lowestwith jute-rice-pea (0.29 kg COe kg-1 economic yield) cropping system. Among different NCRM practices, higher carbon footprint was (0.38 kg COe kg-1 economic yield) recorded with 100% NPK with crop residue. Interpretation: The energy efficient and low input required cropping systems which include legume crops like garden pea and mungbean should be considered for cultivation for diversifying the existing rice-rice cropping system in Eastern India.

The Impact

Conservation agriculture (CA) as a system is still evolving on many of the smallholder farms in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) and questions on the impact of individual components and pathways toward adoption still require answers. A short-term study was conducted to investigate the effect of tillage, crop rotation, and crop residue management, including maize residue biochar on above ground biomass, cumulative carbon (C) input, soil organic carbon (SOC), and maize grain yield. A split–split plot design was used to evaluate two tillage operations (conventional tillage (CT) and no-till (NT)), three crop rotations (maize–fallow–maize (MFM), maize–oat–maize (MOM), and maize–vetch–maize (MVM)), and three-crop residue management (retention (R+), removal (R−), and biochar (B)). The cumulative above ground biomass produced in the MOM rotation was significantly higher by 78.9% and 88.7% relative to MVM and MFM rotations, respectively. The cumulative C input under residue management treatments ranged from 10.65 to 12.16 Mg ha−1. The highest SOC was observed under R+ (1.10%) followed by B (1.0%) and the lowest was in R− (0.96%). Crop residue management significantly affected grain yields in 2015/2016 (p < 0.05) and 2016/2017 (p < 0.01) summer seasons. Biochar did not result in an obvious improvement in both C input and crop yield. Smallholder farmers can potentially switch from CT to NT without any significant yield penalty, as well as adopt MOM and R+ practices for increased biomass and C input.
