Updating soil organic carbon for wheat production with high yield and grain protein
Soil organic carbon (SOC) is crucial for mitigating global warming and significantly impacts crop production. While the relationship between SOC and wheat yield is well-documented, its effect on wheat grain protein content, which is essential for food security and human health, remains unclear. This study gathered management data from wheat farmers and collected plant and soil samples in the Huang-Huai winter wheat region, China’s primary wheat-growing area, from 2015 to 2022. Boundary line analysis was used to quantify the responses of wheat yield and protein content to variations in SOC. Our findings reveal that increases in SOC significantly enhance wheat yield and protein content. The highest yields, reaching up to 10,848 kg ha–1, and a maximum protein content of 17.3 % were observed in soils with SOC ranging from 7.8–18.1 g kg–1, and high-yielding, high-protein wheat exhibited higher spike numbers and grain weights and more efficient nutrient accumulation from soil or fertilizer to shoots. Optimizing SOC levels to produce high-yielding, high-protein wheat could substantially reduce nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) fertilizer use by 9.42×104, 0.70×104, and 3.66×104 Mg per year, decrease greenhouse gas emissions by 3.36 Mt CO2 eq and generate an economic benefit of 2.77 billion USD. In conclusion, our study expands the understanding of SOC’s role in crop production beyond crop yield, providing valuable insights for producing high-yielding, high-protein wheat.
