Soil fertility and biodiversity in organic farmingPaul Mäder
Research Institute of Organic Agriculture, Ackerstrasse, CH 5070 Frick, Switzerland
Science 296:1694-7. 2002..Enhanced soil fertility and higher biodiversity found in organic plots may render these systems less dependent on external inputs...
Soil amendment with Pseudomonas fluorescens CHA0: lasting effects on soil biological properties in soils low in microbial biomass and activityAndreas Fliessbach
Research Institute of Organic Agriculture, Ackerstrasse, CH 5070 Frick, Switzerland
Microb Ecol 57:611-23. 2009..In other words, a soil-derived bacterium was more effective in a relatively poor soil than in soils that are rich in microorganisms...
Survey of organochlorine pesticides in horticultural soils and there grown CucurbitaceaeIsabel Hilber
Research Institute of Organic Agriculture, Ackerstrasse, CH 5070 Frick, Switzerland
Chemosphere 73:954-61. 2008..It is suggested, that OCP contamination is widespread in all European regions with intensive plant production and associated pesticide use, and deserves more attention with respect to save food production...
Nutrient use efficiency and arbuscular mycorrhizal root colonisation of winter wheat cultivars in different farming systems of the DOK long-term trialIsabell Hildermann
Research Institute of Organic Agriculture FiBL, Ackerstrasse, 5070 Frick, Switzerland
J Sci Food Agric 90:2027-38. 2010..We compared nutrient use efficiency (NUE) of old and modern organically and conventionally bred cultivars in organic and conventional systems and assessed AMF-root colonisation (AMF-RC) in relation to nutrient concentrations...
Enhanced top soil carbon stocks under organic farmingAndreas Gattinger
Research Institute of Organic Agriculture, 5070 Frick, Switzerland
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 109:18226-31. 2012..The data mainly cover top soil and temperate zones, whereas only few data from tropical regions and subsoil horizons exist. Summarizing, this study shows that organic farming has the potential to accumulate soil carbon...
Influence of activated charcoal amendment to contaminated soil on dieldrin and nutrient uptake by cucumbersIsabel Hilber
Research Institute of Organic Agriculture, Ackerstrasse, CH 5070 Frick, Switzerland
Environ Pollut 157:2224-30. 2009..Thus, some important prerequisites for the successful application of AC amendments to immobilize organic pollutants in agricultural soils can be considered fulfilled...
