CROP ROTATION EFFECTS ON SOIL ORGANIC MATIER AND SOIL MICROBIAl PROPERTIES

ABSTRACT
Changes in soil organic matter level, microbial biomss C, carbon mineralization and various soil enzyme activities were studied in a crop rotation experiment. It was found that soil organic C and total N level increased by taking three crops or including green manure in the rotation than taking two crops. Microbial biomass C and dehydrogenase activity was highest in pearlmillet-wheat-green manure rotation and was lowest in pearlmillet-wheat rotation. However protease activity was found to be highest in soyabean-wheat-cowpea rotation.
