Carbon storage in the soil and its relationship with climate change
Abstract
The carbon (C) reserve of the soil is the basic component of its fertility and is considered as an indicator when evaluating the sustainability of cropping systems. Soil fertility and carbon storage are closely linked and should not be considered in isolation. The direct effects on increasing soil organic carbon (SOC) include crop productivity, soil improvement, water and air quality. Furthermore, management practices that increase SOC also tend to reduce erosion and improve soil resources.
