Abstract

After soil reclamation in cold regions, the basic fertility, tillage, and biological activity of creatures all decrease. As a waste of edible fungus medium, the mushroom substrate contains quite a lot of nutrients that are beneficial to the growth of crops, which are capable of soil improvement and cultivation and make a promotion to yields. Therefore, it is of great significance to research the application of mushroom substrate to improve the physicochemical and biological characteristics of soil in a cold region. The experiment was implemented in 2016 as a randomized block design with micro plots. The soil hardness of 0 - 20 cm horizon, the ratio of three phases, field capacity, soil nutrients content, microbe amounts, soil enzymatic activity, and the influence of yield are discussed. In these tests, the writer added black mushroom substrate into plowing horizon soil at different rates: 0 kg m -2 (CK), 2.5 kg m -2 (T1), 5 kg m -2 (T2), 7.5 kg m -2 (T3), and 10 kg m -2 (T4). The results show that the addition of mushroom substrate can decrease the penetration resistance of soil, improve soil three-phase, increase soil fertility and activate the activity of soil microorganisms, earthworms, and soil enzymes, and thus increase crop yield. Compared with CK, the potato production correspondingly increased by 12.82% (T1), 27.90% (T2), 50.74% (T3), and 63.41% (T4). The treatments with the mushroom substrate at 7.5 kg m -2, and 10 kg m -2 stand out in improving soil physicochemical properties and activating the activity of soil microorganisms.
