abstract = "Buckwheat and soybean are regarded as important crops in organic production and their production
could contribute to achieving farm sustainability. However, this significance derives
from a preceding effect, but less research is done on these crops as major crops. The aim of
this study is to examine soil properties under different mulches and bio-fertilizers in soybean
NS Kaća and buckwheat Novosadska. The experiment was set up in semiarid conditions in the
Center for organic production in Selenča with 3 types of mulches: wood chips, straw, living
mulch as well as commercial fertilizers and soil enhancers: organic NPK fertilizer, Ascophyllum
nodosum extract and microbiological stimulator. Mulches were helpful in maintaining
the physical properties of soil, but they could not preserve the chemical properties of soil.
Buckwheat manifested better chemical and physical soil properties compared to soybean. Our
results showed differences regarding mulch application in terms of impact on soil, which could
serve as a basis for improving the management of buckwheat and soybean under organic production
systems in semiarid conditions.",
