Effectiveness of direct application of top dressing with spent coffee grounds for soil improvement and weed control in wheat-soybean double cropping system
With increasing annual global coffee consumption, the amount of spent coffee grounds (SCGs) increases. Direct application of SCGs in large agricultural fields can potentially improve soil and control weeds in an environmentally safe manner. However, except for composting, the use of SCGs during crop...

With increasing annual global coffee consumption, the amount of spent coffee grounds (SCGs) increases. Direct application of SCGs in large agricultural fields can potentially improve soil and control weeds in an environmentally safe manner. However, except for composting, the use of SCGs during cropping has not been implemented thus far because of inhibitory effects on crop growth observed in pot-based studies. We evaluated the effect of a top dressing approach to direct SCG application on crop biomass, soil improvement, and weed control, through double cropping field experiments using wheat and soybean. The field experiments were conducted over six successive cropping seasons in an upland field converted from paddy, and crop and weed biomass as well as soil total carbon and nitrogen were investigated.
