Effects of agricultural practices on soil and microbial biomass carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus content: a preliminary case study
In this study we assessed the C : N : P ratios in soil and soil microbial biomass subject to conventional farming and three different organic farming practices. The results showed that microbial biomass was P-limited in soils subject to conventional farming and to organic farming with alfalfa green...
