Conventional farming practices can lead to soil degradation and a decline in productivity.
Regenerative agriculture (RA) is purported by advocates as a solution to these issues that …

Soil carbon sequestration (SCS) refers to the uptake of carbon (C) containing substances
from the atmosphere and its storage in soil C pools. Soil microbial community (SMC) play a …

In saline-alkaline soil, soil structural stability and phosphorus (P) availability are the limiting
factors for crop yield. Organic amendments are proved to play a key role in soil quality, P …

Our 1988 paper, describing the effects of cultivation on microbial biomass and activity in
different aggregate size classes, brought together the 'aggregate hierarchy theory'and the …

The continuous cropping (CC) of major agricultural, horticultural, and industrial crops is an
established practice worldwide, though it has significant soil health-related concerns …

Soil aggregate size significantly impacts microbial communities and soil respiration. Soil
total porosity and pH can regulate the distribution of soil bacteria and fungal communities …

Tillage can strongly affect the long-term productivity of an agricultural system by altering the
composition and spatial distribution of nutrients and microbial communities. The impact of …

This paper was primarily devoted to reveal the stock of soil organic carbon (C) as well as its
lability and to compare their differences existing among tillage and residue practices, aiming …

To evaluate the effects of organic amendments on soil aggregate stability and aggregation-
associated soil characteristics, a study was initiated in agricultural soils after 4 years of …

Increasing soil carbon (C) stocks and improving soil structure are critical challenges in semi-
arid agroecosystems. Conservation tillage has been widely applied to promote aggregate …
