Evaluating soil quality is crucial for ensuring the sustainable use of agricultural lands. This
review examines the definition, evaluation methods, indicator selection, and relevant case …

As the global population grows, the demand for food increases and puts a strain on food
production systems and agricultural productivity, causing soil degradation. Soil quality …

Mollisols contain high amounts of soil organic carbon (SOC), which is highly susceptible to
climate change; thus, climate change could indirectly influence soil aggregate stability, but …

The soil quality is the inherent capacity of soils to function in an ecosystem, which depend
on soil properties and change under the influence of landscape patterns. This study aimed …

This study aimed to model the spatial variability of soil quality in a semi-arid climate. The
principal component analysis (PCA) and IDW interpolation method were used to determine …

A precise evaluation of soil quality (SQ) is important for sustainable land use planning. This
study was conducted to assess soil quality using multivariate approaches. An assessment of …

Fertilization practices change soil organic carbon content and distribution, which is relevant
to crop rotation and soil aggregates. However, how fertilization management under corn …

The return of straw is a widely used agricultural practice for increasing the soil organic
carbon (SOC) content and improving soil structure in Mollisols, owing to the decline caused …

Mollisols contain a high amount of soil organic carbon (SOC) that is highly susceptible to
tillage practices. Conservation tillage (CT) could improve soil aggregate stability, but the …

Mollisols include an abundance of soil organic carbon (SOC) which is easily influenced by
fertilization management. Manure addition could enhance soil aggregate stability; however …
