The objective of this study was to assess the long￢ﾀﾐterm effects of tillage, fertilizer application and crop rotation onSOCin an agricultural area of southern Norway, where a soil fertility and crop rotation experiment was initiated in 1953 and a second experiment on tillage practices was initiated in 1983. The first experiment comprised 6￢ﾀﾐyr crop rotations with cereals only and 2￢ﾀﾐyr cereal and 4￢ﾀﾐyr grass rotations with recommended (base) and more than the recommended (above base) fertilizer application rates; the second experiment dealt with autumn￢ﾀﾐploughed (conventional￢ﾀﾐtill) plots and direct￢ﾀﾐdrilled plots (no￢ﾀﾐtill). Soil samples at 0￢ﾀﾓ10 and 10￢ﾀﾓ30ￂﾠcm depths were collected in autumn 2009 and analysed for their C and N contents. The quality ofSOMin the top layer was determined by13C solid￢ﾀﾐstateNMRspectroscopy. TheSOCstock did not differ significantly because of rotation or fertilizer application types, even after 56ￂﾠyr. However, the no￢ﾀﾐtill system showed a significantly higherSOCstock than the conventional￢ﾀﾐtill system at the 0￢ﾀﾓ10ￂﾠcm depth after the 26ￂﾠyr of experiment, but it was not significantly different at the 10￢ﾀﾓ30ￂﾠcm depth. In terms of quality,SOMwas found to differ by tillage type, rate of fertilizer application and crop rotation. The no￢ﾀﾐtill system showed an abundance of O￢ﾀﾐalkyl C, while conventional￢ﾀﾐtill system indicated an apparently indirect enrichment in alkyl C, suggesting a more advanced stage ofSOMdecomposition. The long￢ﾀﾐterm quantitative and qualitative effects onSOMsuggest that adopting a no￢ﾀﾐtillage system and including grass in crop rotation and farmyard manure in fertilizer application may contribute to preserve soil fertility and mitigate climate change.</p> Fertilizer application 2.
