Conservation agriculture (CA) changes soil properties and processes compared to
conventional agriculture. These changes can, in turn, affect the delivery of ecosystem …

Tillage is one of the agricultural management practices that significantly impacts
agroecosystems, crop production, and the environment. Conventional tillage (CT) practices …

Adoption of no-till management on croplands has become a controversial approach for
storing carbon in soil due to conflicting findings. Yet, no-till is still promoted as a …

Intensive forest management practices, such as fertilization, tillage, and understory removal,
could markedly change the soil organic carbon (SOC) stock and labile organic carbon (C) …

Nitrogen (N) and precipitation are the main limiting factors in food production under rain-fed
cropping systems in arid and semiarid regions. A long-term field experiment was conducted …

There is a strong need to identify the combination of tillage and N fertilization practices that
reduce the amount of nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions while maintaining crop productivity in …

Irrigation as well as soil tillage management are considered two possible strategies to
reduce carbon dioxide (CO 2) and methane (CH 4) emissions from the soil in Mediterranean …

Advances in Agronomy continues to be recognized as a leading reference and a first-rate
source for the latest research in agronomy. As always, the subjects covered are varied and …

Inorganic fertilizers are widely used for crop production, but their long‐term impacts on soil
organic carbon (SOC) pools and soil physical attributes are not fully understood. We studied …

Conservation tillage systems (no-tillage, NT; and minimum tillage, MT) are being adopted in
rainfed agroecosystems of the Mediterranean basin where water availability is the main …
