Cover cropping is considered a climate-smart strategy to regenerate low-fertility soils in arid
and semi-arid regions. However, the mechanisms of soil organic carbon (SOC) storage and …

Irrigated forage production systems are intensive and highly exhaustive on nutrients.
Integration of cover crops in irrigated forage crop rotation could be a strategy to increase soil …

Abstract In North Bihar (NB), the conventional rice-wheat cropping system has led to soil,
water, and environmental degradation, alongside low profitability, threatening sustainability …

Energy and carbon (C) footprints of agricultural production practices have garnered high
attention due to rising energy costs and increasing global warming. However, the …

Cover cropping is a promising strategy to improve soil health, but it may also trigger
greenhouse gas emissions, especially nitrous oxide (N2O). Beyond nitrogen (N) availability …

Efficient water management is critical to sustainable crop production in arid and semi-arid
southwestern United States. A study was designed to evaluate the variations in soil water …

Cover crops reduce nitrate leached, but effects on nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions are
mixed. Cover crops can reduce N 2 O emissions by reducing levels of mineral nitrogen (N) …

Crop-fallow systems are common in the arid and semi-arid Southwestern USA. The long
fallow periods between crops reduce annual carbon (C) inputs and soil organic carbon …

CO 2 utilization is an urgent task for sustainable development, and one of the promising
approaches for CO 2 conversion is photocatalysis. In this work, photocatalysts based on gC …

Understanding soil organic matter (SOM) dynamics along gradients of land intensification is
critical to guide conservation goals towards improvements in soil carbon (C) and nitrogen …
