The expansion of agroforestry could provide substantial climate change mitigation (up to
0.31 Pg C yr− 1), comparable to other prominent natural climate solutions such as …

The climate is one of the key elements impacting several cycles connected to soil and plant
systems, as well as plant production, soil quality, and environmental quality. Due to …

Increasing soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks in agricultural soils removes carbon dioxide
from the atmosphere and contributes towards achieving carbon neutrality. For farmers …

Agroecology (AE) has been proposed as a transformative approach to climate change
mitigation and adaptation that reduces climate risk while supporting long-term productivity …

Intensively managed open croplands are highly productive but often have deleterious
environmental impacts. Temperate agroforestry potentially improves ecosystem functions …

Clearing natural vegetation to establish arable agriculture (cropland) almost invariably
causes a loss of soil organic carbon (SOC). Is it possible to restore soil that continues in …

Modern temperate alley-cropping systems combine rows of trees with rows of crops
(agroforestry), which allows for diverse interspecific interactions such as the complementary …

Microbial necromass carbon (MNC) and glomalin-related soil protein (GRSP) are stable
microbe-derived sources of carbon (C) in soils. MNC constitutes a considerable portion of …

Contemporary synthetic biology-based biotechnologies are generating tools and strategies
for reprogramming genomes for specific purposes, including improvement and/or creation of …

Organic fertilizer substitution (OFS) technology effectively mitigates the adverse effects of
excessive synthetic fertilizer application while promoting soil organic carbon (SOC) …
