Abstract
Crop performance on degraded soil needs special management practices to overcome soil quality limitations. In a 2-year（from summer 2006 to winter 2007–2008） field trial on a moderately degraded Alfisol in Swabi District（34°7′12′′N, 72°28′20′′E）, Pakistan,the effects of three cropping patterns, cereal-cereal（CC）, cereal-legume（CL）, and cereal-cereal and legume intercrop（CLI）, were tested in main plots under four fertilization treatments in sub-plots, including no fertilization（control）, farmers’ practice(FP, 60:45 kg ha-1N:P2O5), recommended dose(RD, 120:90:60 kg ha-1N:P2O5:K2O), and integrated nutrient management(INM, 20 t ha-1 farmyard manure integrated with 50% N, 100% P, and K of recommended dose), using a split-plot randomized complete block design. The performance of CL was superior than CC in plant height, leaf area index（LAI）, cob length, grain yield, biological yield, and grain protein（8%, 26%, 8%, 5%, 10%, and 8% increases, respectively）, while CLI confirmed significant improvement only in LAI（25%） over CC. Response to nutrient inputs from all sources was in the order of INM > RD > FP > control, and the maximum net economic return by INM（23% and 2.5 times higher than RD and FP, respectively） indicated severe deficiency of both macro-and micro-nutrients in the soil as well as degraded physical properties. Increases in soil organic matter, total N, total mineral N, available P and K, total porosity, and available water-holding capacity by 6%, 34%, 24%, 50%, 13%, 5%, and 7%, respectively, and decrease in soil bulk density by 4% after four crop seasons indicated optimistic changes in soil quality as a result of the combined effects of fertilization from organic and inorganic sources and legumes within crop rotation. This study suggests that keeping the soil covered under cereal-legume rotation crops all year round and treatment with INM（50% N from organic source and 50% from inorganic source） are the best management practice for sustained production on degraded Alfisols.
