Abstract: Long-term effects of inorganic and corn stalks organic nutrient sources on yield, soil organic carbon(SOC) and the relationship between crop yield and SOC were investigated in Dry-Land Farming Institute of Hebei Academy of Agricultural and Forestry Sciences, Hengshui, Hebei Province, China from 1981 to 2005. Hengshui is a part the North China Plain and the dominant cropping systems are Winter wheat-maize rotations. Recently the use of organic manure with grain crops has almost disappeared. This could reduce soil fertility and crop productivity in the long run. There were sixteen treatments applied to both wheat and maize seasons: Inorganic fertilizers as main plots and corn stalks as subplots and the main plot and subplot all have four levels expressed A and B respectively. So there are sixteen treatments with three replicates were set (A1,A2,A3,A4)*(B1,B2,B3,B4). After more than 20 years crop yield and SOC decreased in treatment of without fertilizers and only applicate corn stalks just sustain it. Combine application of inorganic fertilizers and corn stalks increase SOC and crop yield very strongly. For crop yield the more fertlizers the more increase. But the SOC will decrease as the more inorganiac fertlizer application and increase with the increase of corn stalks.

Abstract: A Reversed-Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatographic method was developed for determining free Amino Acids in Burley Tobacco. The test was done by OPA/3-mercaptopropionic Acid as the pre-column derivatising reagent. Chromatographic column was Elitte C₁₈ column (4.6mm×250mm i.d., 5um). Mobile phase A was 18mmol/L NaAc (PH=7.2) including 0.002% (v/v) triethylamine and 0.3% (v/v) furanidine. Mobile phase B was 100 mmol/L NaAc (PH=7.2) -Acetonitrile- methanol (v/v=1:2:2). The column temperature was 40°C and the flow rate was 1.0ml/min. The fluorescence detector was used with 350nm excitation wave length and 450nm emission wave length. The average recoveries of the method ranged 95.3% to 100.7% with the relative standard deviation of 2.32%~9.24%. The method is simple, accurate and has good repeatability. The results of the determination of seventeen kinds of free amino acids in burley leaves which were produced by way of different ratio of cake fertilizer and inorganic fertilizer. The results show that aspartic acid has the highest content however ratio of cake fertilizer and inorganic fertilizer. The most contents of free amino acids are increased and then gradually decreased with the increase of organic manure. The most contents of free amino acids are very close at the ratio of 15%:85% ratio and 30%:70% between cake fertilizer and inorganic fertilizer. The total content of free amino acids is the highest at the ratio of 30%: 70% between cake fertilizer and inorganic fertilizer. Considering comprehensively, the quality of burley leaves is the best at the ratio of 30%:70% between cake fertilizer and inorganic fertilizer.
