摘要： One of the most important problems in the Loess Plateau of China affecting sustainable agriculture is inefficient nutrient use. Field experiments were conducted to study the effects of different soil management practices on the nitrogen (N) dynamics and winter wheat yield on a loess soil in Luoyang, Henan province, China. The results showed that subsoiling with mulch (SS) consistently increased the yield of winter wheat primarily by better water harvest compared with conventional tillage (CT). The influence on yield of no till with mulch (NT) depended on the amount of precipitation. TC (2 crops per year) lowered the winter wheat yield mainly due to the unfavourable soil moisture conditions after growing peanut in summer; however, the harvested peanut gained an extra profit for the local farmer. N uptake by grain and straw and N export was highest for SS. Changes in frequency and intensity of tillage practice altered soil total N content and its distribution along the slope. SS and NT increased the N content of the surface layer (0-0.20 m) compared with CT, but there was no significant effect in deeper soil layers. Considerable amounts of nitrate-N were left in the profile 0-1.60 cm just after harvest under all treatments. The cumulative nitrate-N content to a depth of 1.60 m on average was 282 kg/ha, of which 56 kg/ha was in the layer 1.20-1.60 m, which is an indication of considerable nitrate leaching. From data of 7 consecutive years between 1999 and 2006, it could be concluded that SS resulted in the highest yield and total N content in the surface layer, and is the most sustainable tillage option for the circumstances of the study area.
