Forms of Nitrogen in the Soil
In addition to nitrogen occurring as atmospheric dinitrogen gas in soil pore spaces, nitrogen occurs in both organic and inorganic forms in the soil.
Organic Nitrogen
Several organic compounds (compounds containing carbon) compose the organic fraction of nitrogen in soil. Soil organic matter exists as decomposing plant and animal residues, relatively stable products of decomposition-resistant compounds and humus. Nitrogen has accumulated in these various organic fractions during soil development.
Organic matter formation and stability is largely related to long-term moisture and temperature trends. With higher average temperatures, soil organic matter decreases. As moisture increases, soil organic matter increases. Higher temperatures lead to more rapid and complete organic matter decomposition to soluble products which can leach from soil. Increasing moisture causes more plant growth, resulting in more organic residue as you move south and east in the Great Plains
Answer:
Mineralization is the process through which the organic nutrients get converted into inorganic nutrients by the action of decomposers.
Explanation:
Mineralization is a naturally occurring process through which the organic matter get decomposed and converted into inorganic matter by the action of microbes. These microbes uses saprophytic mode of nutrition and decomposes the organic matter and the decomposed organic matter is then mixed in soil and gets converted into inorganic form. This process helps in soil replenishment and it increases the soil fertility and therefore it is widely used in agricultural practices to increase the yield of crops by increasing nutrient supply.
