  1. Oct 10, 2024 · We found that conservation agriculture improved a suite of soil properties involved in key soil functions (water infiltration and storage, carbon and nutrient cycling, and microbial activity ...

  2. 1 day ago · Good soil isn’t just dirt—it’s the foundation of sustainable farming. Without it, farmers would be as lost as a cow in a car park. Healthy soil improves crop yield, stores water like a pro, and reduces the need for artificial fertilisers and pesticides. It’s also a carbon storage champion, helping combat climate change.

  3. Sep 29, 2020 · These contrasting results attest to an important underlying factor that should be considered when using CCs to improve soil physical properties: climate. The same influence of CCs in improving soil water storage in humid and subhumid regions may be responsible for possible drainage and increased evapotranspiration in semi-arid and arid ...

  4. The international 4 per 1000 initiative aims at supporting states and non-governmental stakeholders in their efforts towards a better management of soil carbon (C) stocks. These stocks depend on soil C inputs and outputs. They are the result of fine spatial scale interconnected mechanisms, which stabilise/destabilise organic matter-borne C. Since 2016, the CarboSMS consortium federates French ...

  5. Jan 1, 2024 · The world has been actively seeking feasible solutions to improve soil health to ensure the long-term productivity. A focal point is to modulate the living ecosystem to perform the multiple functions, including carbon sequestration (Gao et al., 2018), water purification (Syafrudin et al., 2021), nutrient cycling (Yadav et al., 2021), storing and supplying nutrients to plants, and providing ...

  6. Mar 17, 2020 · The yield loss observed in the early years of CA adoption before improvements in SOC and associated structural/fertility improvements occur may also often reverse over time as soil properties and nutrient availability improve and farmers/researchers gain greater skills in managing the CA system (Araya et al., 2012; Soane et al., 2012; Brouder and Gomez-Macpherson, 2014; Pittelkow et al., 2015 ...
