Reducing of soil organic matter loss caused by water erosion in inter-rows of hop gardens

Original language description

Currently, when cultivating Humulus lupulus, there is no systematic farming reducing soil erosion in the Czech Republic. As a result, annually irreversible soil and organic matter losses due to intense rains occur on soils of hop gardens threatened by erosion. One of the possibilities how to reduce water erosion in hop gardens and thereby to decrease the amount of organic matter wash-out is using the conservation effect of suitably selected catch crops in inter-rows. Two catch crops were selected to verify: Phacelia tanacetifolia and grass-legume mixture. Organic matter in the soil is a key factor to maintain stable soil environment and our results show that the amount of washed organic matter was reduced by more than half compared to conventional farming (60% - naturally moisture soil, 54.5% - soil already saturated). The research took place between the years 2016 and 2017 close to a village called Solopysky. Soil loss was investigated using rainfall simulator from which the organic matter wash-out was consequently determined. Rainfall simulator is a device enabling the measurement of not only soil loss due to water erosion but also the size of surface run-off, infiltration etc. From the outcomes of measurements carried out by rainfall simulator, it is apparent that these technologies do have a significant soil conservation potential in hop gardens.
