摘  要：
Agricultural sustainability has benefited from the broad adoption of conservation agriculture (CA) practices for decades, in which the reduction of mechanical disturbances to soil (also known as reduced tillage, RT) is one of the most essential principles for CA implementation. Many studies have recommended the advantages of CA practices in the promotion of biodiversity, but the integrated impacts on crop productivity and biodiversity remain unclear. Since CA has been applied in rice production in the subtropical area of southern China for several years, the effects of CA, particularly the RT methods, need to be evaluated for the local and long-term adoption. In this study, we established an integrated network to illustrate how the reduction of tillage intensity influenced organisms including invertebrates (such as rice pests and their predators), pathogens and weeds, and then led to an impact on rice yield. The two-year study demonstrated that major rice pests, such as rice planthoppers, stem borers and apple snails, were effectively controlled by RT practice. Similarly, the occurrence of common diseases declined with less tillage. Compared to the conventional tillage (CT) treatment, the density of weeds in paddy fields deceased significantly in the RT treatment. In addition, the diversity and richness of pest predators increased remarkably in paddy fields where either reduced or no tillage was applied, which highlighted the significance of a CA strategy for the promotion of biodiversity in the agroecosystem. More importantly, the rice yield gradually increased after the two-year reduction of tillage. Taken together, our results suggest that the reduction of tillage intensity is beneficial for the protection of rice crops from various pests, and facilitates the sustainability of the agroecosystem and rice yield, which provides a solid basis and novel insights for the establishment of sustainable agroecosystems by CA-related practices in rice production in southern China.
