Aim:
The present study aimed to compare the effects of different tillage systems and cropping systems on soil biological activity in terms of soil organic carbon, labile carbon, dehydrogenase activity, fluorescein diacetate activity and crop productivity.
Methodology:
The yield data of different cropping systems were converted in soybean grain equivalent yield using minimum support price based on 2015 and expressed in q ha-1. Soil samples were collected randomly from 2-3 locations from the plots at the end of 3rd crop cycles at 0-5 and 5-15 cm depths during April 2014 with the help of core sampler and processed. The soil samples were analysed using standard analytical procedures.
Results:
Within tillage system, soil organic carbon was recorded higher in reduced tillage (0.67%), compared to notillage (0.66%) and conventional tillage (0.62%) at 0-5 cm depth. The labile carbon in surface soil (0-5 cm) followed …
