diversification and contribute to climate change mitigation. In this research, we evaluated the short-termeffect of alley
cropping with reduced tillage on soil CO2 and N2O emissions and soil total organic carbon (TOC) in an almond orchard
under Mediterranean rainfed conditions. We compared an almond monoculture with tillage in all plot surface (MC)
with almond crop with reduced tillage and growth of Capparis spinosa (D1) and almond crop with reduced tillage and
growth of Thymus hyemalis (D2). For two years, soil CO2 and N2O were measured, with soil sampling at the start and
end of the experimental period. Results showed that CO2 emission rates followed the soil temperature pattern, while
N2O emissions were not correlated with temperature nor moisture. Soil CO2 emissions were significantly higher in
MC(87mgm\u22122 h\u22121), with no significant differences between D1 and D2 (69mgm\u22122 h\u22121). Some peaks in CO2 effluxes
were observed after tillage operations during warm days. Soil N2Oemission rateswere not significantly different among
treatments. Cumulative CO2 and CO2 equivalent (CO2e) emissions were significantly highest in MC. When CO2e emissions
were expressed on a crop production basis, D2 showed the significantly lowest values (5080 g kg\u22121) compared to
D1 (50,419 g kg\u22121) and MC (87,836 g kg\u22121), owing to the high thyme yield, additional to the almond yield. No production
was obtained for C. spinosa, since at least two more years are required. TOC did not change with time in MCneither
D1, but it significantly increased inD2 from3.85 g kg\u22121 in 2019 to 4.62 g kg\u22121 in 2021. Thus, alley cropping can contribute
to increase the agroecosystem productivity and reduce CO2 emissions. However, it is necessary to grow", "keywords": ["2.

Long-term organic farming aims to reduce synthetic fertilizer and pesticide use in order to sustainably produce and improve soil quality. To do this, there is a need for more information about the soil microbial community, which plays a key role in a sustainable agriculture. In this paper, we assessed the long-term effects of two organic and one conventional cropping systems on the soil microbial community structure using high-throughput sequencing analysis, as well as the link between these communities and the changes in the soil properties and crop yield. The results showed that the crop yield was similar among the three cropping systems. The microbial community changed according to cropping system. Organic cultivation with manure compost and compost tea (Org_C) showed a change in the bacterial community associated with an improved soil carbon and nutrient content. A linear discriminant analysis effect size showed different bacteria and fungi as key microorganisms for each of the three different cropping systems, for conventional systems (Conv), different microorganisms such as Nesterenkonia, Galbibacter, Gramella, Limnobacter, Pseudoalteromonas, Pantoe, and Sporobolomyces were associated with pesticides, while for Org_C and organic cultivation with manure (Org_M), other types of microorganisms were associated with organic amendments with different functions, which, in some cases, reduce soil borne pathogens. However, further investigations such as functional approaches or network analyses are need to better understand the mechanisms behind this behavior.

In semi-arid regions, the use of plastic mulch and pesticides in conventional agriculture is nearly ubiquitous. Although the sorption of pesticides on Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) has been previously studied, no data are available for other plastics such as Pro-oxidant Additive Containing (PAC) plastics or \uffe2\uff80\uff9cbiodegradable\uffe2\uff80\uff9d (Bio) plastics. The aim of this research was to measure the sorption pattern of active substances from pesticides on LDPE, PAC and Bio plastic mulches and to compare the decay of the active substances in the presence and absence of plastic debris.

Methods

For this purpose, 38 active substances from 17 insecticides, 15 fungicides and six herbicides commonly applied with plastic mulching in South-east Spain were incubated with a 3 \uffc3\uff97 3 cm2 piece of plastic mulch (LDPE, PAC and Bio). The incubation was done in a solution of 10% acetonitrile and 90% distilled water at 35 \uffc2\uffb0C for 15 days in the dark. The Quick Easy Cheap Effective Rugged Safe approach was adapted to extract the pesticides.

Results

The sorption behavior depended on both the pesticide and the plastic mulch type. On average, the sorption percentage was ~23% on LDPE and PAC and ~50% on Bio. The decay of active substances in the presence of plastic was ~30% lesser than the decay of active substances in solution alone. This study is the first attempt at assessing the behavior of a diversity of plastic mulches and pesticides to further define research needs.
