Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of ecological soil improvement, and particularly relates to a planting method for increasing soil organic matter and carbon sink. Background Art

[0003] Different types of trees contribute differently to soil organic matter. For example, deciduous tree species usually provide rich sources of organic matter for the soil through their litter, while evergreen tree species may improve soil structure through root exudates, etc. In addition, some specific plants, such as leguminous plants, also have nitrogen-fixing effects, which can further improve soil fertility.

[0004] Forest age is one of the important factors determining the carbon storage in forest ecosystems. Due to the relatively small volume of trees in young forests, the biomass of young forests is relatively low, but the carbon absorption efficiency per unit biomass is relatively high. The tree roots in middle-aged forests are more developed, which can promote the accumulation of soil organic matter and further enhance the soil carbon sink function. The growth rate of trees in mature forests slows down, the biomass tends to be stable, and the carbon absorption rate decreases. However, through litter decomposition and root exudates, it continuously provides sources of organic matter for the soil and maintains a relatively high soil carbon sink capacity. In summary, the carbon sink capabilities at different forest age stages have their own characteristics.

[0005] A reasonable planting density can not only promote the healthy growth of trees, but also optimize the soil environment. Excessive or too low planting density will affect the competition relationship and resource allocation among trees, and thus affect the formation of soil organic matter and carbon sink capacity. Therefore, in actual operation, it is necessary to determine the appropriate planting density in combination with the specific characteristics of tree species and site conditions.

[0006] In summary, regarding how to maximize soil organic matter accumulation and enhance carbon sink effects by scientifically selecting tree species, reasonably planning forest age structure, and precisely controlling planting density, it has become a hot issue in the current research field. The present invention precisely proposes a brand-new planting method based on this background. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention proposes a planting method for increasing soil organic matter and carbon sink. By mixing planting Picea crassifolia, Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica, and Pinus tabuliformis of different forest ages, and cooperating with Caragana korshinskii, it realizes the maximization of soil organic matter accumulation and enhancement of carbon sink effects in Zhangye area, Gansu Province.

[0008] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a planting method for increasing soil organic matter and carbon sink, including the following steps:

[0009] (1) Apply compound microbial agents on the surface of the planting land;

[0010] (2) Plant arbors, and then plant Caragana korshinskii Kom. in the gaps between the planted arbors;

[0011] The composite microbial agent described in step (1) is composed of Bacillus cereus and Bacillus paralicheniformis;

[0012] The arbors described in step (2) are Picea crassifolia Kom., Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica Litv., and Pinus tabuliformis Carr.

[0013] Preferably, the application rate of the composite microbial agent described in step (1) is 8 - 10 kg / hm 2 , and the composite microbial agent described in step (1) is obtained by mixing Bacillus cereus and Bacillus paralicheniformis according to a mass ratio of 1:1.

[0014] Preferably, the planting density of the arbors described in step (2) is 1000 - 1500 plants / hm 2 .

[0015] Preferably, the specific method of planting arbors in step (2) is as follows: Carry out the intercropping method of one Picea crassifolia Kom., one Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica Litv., one Picea crassifolia Kom., and one Pinus tabuliformis Carr., with equal row and plant spacing, and set according to the planting density.

[0016] Preferably, the tree age of the Picea crassifolia Kom. described in step (2) is 20 - 30 years.

[0017] Preferably, the tree age of the Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica Litv. described in step (2) is 10 - 15 years.

[0018] Preferably, the tree age of the Pinus tabuliformis Carr. described in step (2) is 5 - 10 years.

[0019] Preferably, the tree age of the Caragana korshinskii Kom. described in step (2) is 2 - 4 years.

[0020] Preferably, the planting density of the Caragana korshinskii Kom. described in step (2) is 800 - 1200 plants / mu.

[0021] Preferably, the planting method is applied to Zhangye area, Gansu Province.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and technical effects:

[0023] The planting method for increasing soil organic matter and carbon sink of the present invention promotes plant growth, inhibits harmful bacteria, and enhances soil fertility by applying a composite bacterium agent prepared from Bacillus cereus and Bacillus paralicheniformis before planting. It promotes plant growth by producing or inducing plants to produce auxin, converts organic nitrogen and phosphorus by synthesizing substances such as siderophore and organic acid, degrades insoluble inorganic salts in the soil, and promotes the absorption of nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus by crops. By decomposing the organic matter in the soil and converting it into humus, it greatly improves soil fertility. By quickly multiplying into the dominant flora in the soil, it competes with pathogenic bacteria for space and nutrients, inhibits the growth and reproduction of harmful bacteria, and produces antibacterial substances to antagonize pathogenic bacteria, such as gramicidin and polymyxin, and secretes lytic substances such as chitinase and cellulase to dissolve the cell wall or cell membrane of pathogenic bacteria, reducing the number of harmful bacteria and effectively preventing various soil-borne diseases. The composite bacteria adopted in the present invention can grow well in both aerobic and anaerobic environments, which helps to improve the micro-ecological environment of the soil. The present invention ensures an ecological environment with a balanced cumulative biomass carbon storage that can be maintained for many years by jointly planting Picea crassifolia, Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica, and Pinus tabuliformis with different forest ages, so that the carbon storage in the ecological environment will not change greatly with the change of years and can always be maintained at a balanced value. This effect is attributed to the different changes in forest age and carbon density of different types of arbors. By reasonably selecting arbors with appropriate forest age and species and planning the planting density, soil organic matter and carbon sink can be ensured. At the same time, Caragana korshinskii is interplanted to form a multi-layered vegetation structure in the vertical direction, increasing the biomass per unit area, improving the light energy utilization rate, and realizing complementary utilization of soil resources in terms of root distribution depth, nutrient absorption mode, and water demand. The diversity of root exudates promotes the richness and activity of the soil microbial community, accelerates the decomposition and transformation process of organic matter, thereby improving the soil carbon storage capacity, ensuring the stability of the long-term carbon sink function, and reducing the surface exposure.

[0047] Experimental Example 1

[0048] In the Minle County area of Zhangye, Gansu Province, with an altitude of 2400 m, a slope of 5 - 10°, and aspects of due north, due east, and due south, implement the planting schemes described in Example 1 and Comparative Example 1. Three years after implementing the planting scheme, measure the organic matter content and carbon sink content in the soil.

[0049] Divide the test plots for the planting scheme of Example 1. Select the small plots at the four corners and the center of the test plot, and collect 5 portions of soil at a depth of 80 cm to form the sample soil of Example 1; divide the test plots for the planting scheme of Comparative Example 1. Select the small plots at the four corners and the center of the test plot, and collect 5 portions of soil at a depth of 80 cm to form the sample soil of Comparative Example 1.

[0050] Heat-treat the sample soil of Example 1 and the sample soil of Comparative Example 1 respectively, and detect the CO2 content of the corresponding sample soil. Use a total organic carbon analyzer (purchased from Huaxi Xinrui (Qingdao)) to measure the total organic carbon content of the sample soil of Example 1 and the sample soil of Comparative Example 1 respectively, and multiply by the conversion coefficient 1.723 to calculate the soil organic matter content.

[0051] To measure the soil carbon sink content, prepare a series of gradient concentration standard solutions for the determination of organic matter content (mass concentrations of 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%) with sucrose. Mix the gradient concentration standard solutions with 10 mL of 1N K2Cr2O7 respectively, then add 10 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid. After cooling, add 80 mL of distilled water, let it stand overnight, and measure at a wavelength of 600 μm to draw the standard curve.
