Soil nutrients and enzyme activities based on millet continuous cropping obstacles

In order to evaluate the effects of continuous cropping of millet on soil nutrients and soil enzyme activities, the present study was based on four treatments of 2 years of continuous cropping (T1), 3 years of continuous cropping (T2), 4 years of continuous cropping (T3) and rotational cropping (CK), based on 4 years of no fertilizer positioning experiments, and the soil nutrients, soil enzyme activities and millets yields were determined, respectively. The results showed that with the increase of continuous cropping years, the millet yield decreased and was significantly lower than that of rotating with legume crops, and compared with CK, the yields of T1, T2 and T3 treatments were reduced by 8.92%, 13.73% and 37.60%, respectively; the soil nitrogen and phosphorus contents were reduced, the quick-acting potassium content did not change obviously, and the soil pH was increased; Soil urease, alkaline phosphatase, sucrase and catalase activities generally showed a decreasing trend and the decrease was more significant with the increase in the number of years of continuous cropping. Therefore, in order to maintain the soil fertility and increase the millet yield, it is necessary to practice crop rotation and stubble reversal between millets and leguminous crops such as kidney beans, and to apply certain fertilizers.
