4 Introduction Under Mediterranean conditions, high maize productivities largely depend on irrigation supply, large amounts of N fertilizer and intensive tillage practices Soil tillage and irrigation system may have a significant impact on soil physical properties, affecting soil water content and on the O 2 availability Impact N 2 O + Microbial communities Red Sirena 4 Madrid 07 November 2018

5 Objetive The objective of this work was to assess the impact of tillage and irrigation management on soil nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions and on the microbial communities in a 3-year maize (Zea mays L.) monoculture in a Mediterranean agroecosystem Red Sirena 5 Madrid 07 November 2018
