Soybean yield was positively associated with nutrient cycling and storage
Research gap analysis derived from 4 agriculture papers in our local library.
The gap
Soybean yield was positively associated with nutrient cycling and storage, but not with nutrient supply, indicating that chemical indicators alone are insufficient to capture soil functional complexity in soils with constructed soil fertili

Further research could investigate the effects of soil and water conservation measures on soybean yield in the northeast black soil region. The impact of mechanization and chemical fertilizers and pesticides on soil quality and soybean yield could be studied in more detail. Other factors affecting soybean yield, such as climate change and socioeconomic factors, could be explored.
