This invention discloses the application and method of
green manure return to the field in the remediation of
cadmium pollution in
red soil, belonging to the field of agricultural heavy
metal pollution remediation technology. This method addresses the problems of high cost, potential secondary
pollution, and difficulty in coordinating with agricultural production associated with chemical passivating agents in the remediation of
cadmium-contaminated farmland in
red soil. It utilizes a
crop rotation system combining continuous planting and incorporation of milkvetch with rice planting and fertilization to simultaneously regulate and significantly increase soil microbial
biomass carbon and amorphous
iron oxide content, synergistically driving the transformation of
soil cadmium from a highly active, weakly acidic extractable state to a more stable iron-
manganese oxide-bound and organically
bound state. This method achieves long-term, stable reduction of
soil cadmium bioavailability without the need for additional chemical passivating agents, realizing a green, low-cost, and in-situ synergistic approach to
cadmium pollution remediation and agricultural production, and has significant application value.
