Direct seeding mulch-based cropping increases both the activity and the abundance of denitrifier communities in a tropical soil
2009
International audience; This study evaluated the impact of direct seeding mulch-based cropping (DMC), as an alternative to conventional tilling (CT), on a functional community involved in N cycling and emission of greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O). The study was carried out for annual soybean/rice crop rotation in the Highlands of Madagascar. The differences between the two soil management strategies (direct seeding with mulched crop residues versus tillage without incorporation of crop residues) were studied along a fertilization gradient (no fertilizer, organic fertilizer, organic plus mineral fertilizers). The activity and size of the denitrifier community were determined by denitrifica…
Stock de semences versus relevé de flore : comment mesurer les évolutions de la flore adventice liées à des modifications de systèmes de culture ?
2019
Le suivi des changements de la composition adventice est une préoccupation majeure lors de la mise en place de nouveaux systèmes de culture. Il se pose toutefois des questions sur la méthodologie à mettre en place pour ce type de travail. L’étude du stock de semences qui représente en théorie la flore potentielle, semble s’imposer comme la façon la plus évidente de caractériser les communautés de mauvaises herbes. Toutefois cette méthode est lourde à mettre en place et nécessite un nombre d’échantillons important. La flore adventice d’une centaine de parcelles conduites en semis direct sous couvert a été étudiée au travers de deux méthodes : un relevé de flore réalisé au printemps et un éch…
Impact of fertilization and direct seeding on activity and abundance of key denitrifier communities in a tropical soil

Affiche, résumé; The aim of this work was to investigate to which extent different practices impacted on the bacterial communities involved in N2O emission.

ENGAGED: System design of direct seedings under permanent cover crop without glyphosate
2022
Direct seeding under permanent cover crop (SDCV) corresponds to sow a crop in a multiyear vegetal cover crop(often clover) without soil perturbation. It is an emblematic technique of Conservation Agriculture whose agronomicand environmental interests are multiple because of the special attention paid to soils. However, the issue of weedcontrol and permanent cover crop control is central to SDCV culture systems. The use of non-selective herbicide suchas glyphosate is the most common technical lever for weed and cover crop management. Glyphosate is in the hotseat since the President of France announced its banning from 2023. It becomes necessary to find alternatives for thesustainability of t…
