    The soil quality is measured through the use of indicators that measure or reflect the environmental status or sustainability condition of the ecosystem. Microbial attributes are classified as biological indicators. The use of these indicators in the soil analysis routine are promising. In this research, the effect of two land uses (paddy or upland field) with two different soil management (conventional system or conventional system with previous organic matter applied) on soil microbial properties was evaluated in a farmer’s field. The soil enzymatic activities (urease, glucosidase and arylsulfatase), with exception of acid phosphatase, showed sensitive and consistent responses to the effect of soil management. The results showed higher soil enzymatic activity in paddy than upland field. Total C and N were 1.3-1.8 times increased by organic amendments as well as N mineralization 1.8-2.4 times, while enzyme activities in upland soil 1.5-2.4 times, although 0.7-1.3 times in paddy soil. In both land-uses, the large amount of organic fertilizer applications in previous organic amendments contributed to improve the soil chemical properties and soil microbiological activities.

    <p>Studies have shown that humic substances in soil organic matter have various functionalities. In this study, we focused on water-soluble organic components, such as dissolved organic matter (DOM), and applied the method proposed by Tsuda et al. (2016), which has been used to analyze water-extractable humic substances (WEHS) in DOM in lakes, to soil samples for the first time to quantify WEHS in farmlands. The amount of WEHS in agricultural soils in Kanagawa Prefecture was found to be proportional to the amount of water extracted organic matter (WEOM) for the first time in this study. The amount of WEOM was generally higher in the crop layer than in the next surface layer immediately below the crop layer; the same trend was observed for WEHS. The amount of WEHS in WEOM varied greatly among various study sites. However, the percentage of WEHS showed a strong positive correlation between the cultivated and next surface layers. These results indicate that the total amount of soil organic matter influences the amount of WEOM and the amount of WEHS in WEOM. Moreover, the nitrogen in WEOM was found to be mainly present in non-WEHS and almost WEHS. The high positive correlation between the amounts of carbon and nitrogen in WEHS shows that the nitrogen compounds present in WEHS are chemical structures that are constrained to some extent.</p>

    <p>The main component of eggshells is calcium carbonate, which has been used for Ca research in rice cultivation in Japan. The effectiveness of Ca ions on rice was discovered in the 1 960 s by means of hydroponics, but the effect of Ca application on soil-grown rice has not yet been studied. The high-temperature ripening disorder of paddy rice in Japan in recent years is a sterility phenomenon caused by the failure of assimilation products produced in the leaves to be transferred to the ears. Therefore, to maintain the translocation of assimilated products produced in rice leaves, supplying Ca continuously even in small amounts is more important than increasing the Ca concentration in the plant. If research can be conducted on not only calcium carbonate, the main component of eggshells, but also the translocation rate of assimilates in paddy rice, and if high-temperature ripening disorders caused by weather conditions can be avoided, eggshells can be used as an agricultural material that contributes to food security in Japan.</p>
