Bioprime: Impact on Yield, Soil Carbon Accumulation and Nitrogen Use

Trials from over four years are examining different rates and timing of application of Bioprime, a liquid soil amendment which changes soil microbiology. The aim is to relate measured plant growth and yield improvement to changes in microbial populations in the soil around roots, and to show how these changes and different ways of applying nitrogen (N) impact on soil carbon accumulation.

一项跨度逾四年的田间试验，正针对可改变土壤微生物特性的液态土壤改良剂Bioprime的不同施用速率与施用时机展开研究。该试验的核心目标在于将实测得到的植物生长状况与产量提升效果，与根际土壤微生物种群的变化建立关联，并阐明此类微生物变化以及不同施氮（N）方式对土壤碳累积的影响机制。
