Microbial Decomposers-Mediated Changes in Soil Biological Properties, Organic Carbon Fraction and Wheat Yield Under Rice Residue Retention in Indo Gangetic Plains
A field experiment evaluated the effects of tillage, rice residue management, and microbial decomposers on soil biological properties, carbon dynamics, and wheat productivity. Seven treatments were tested in a randomized block design. The treatment T7 (zero tillage + 70% residue retention + fungal–bacterial consortia @...
