Conventional and micro-morphological methods were used to study the effects of planting grain and cotton crops on soil properties in Gaotang County,Shandong Province. The results showed that long-term cultivation of grain and cotton crops has a significant impact on soil micro-structure. The top soil( 0-10 cm) of wheat-maize field has higher organic matter content,uniform aggregate size,high separation,and strong packing void connectivity,forming a type micro-structure that is conducive to agricultural production. The characteristics of soil matrix are mainly inherited from soil parent materials,and the impact of crop cultivation on soil matrix is very weak. The amount of formations in the soil is less,and only Fe nodules,Mn nodules and excrement are observed.展开更多
