Global food production faces challenges in balancing the need for increased yields with
environmental sustainability. This study presents a six-year field experiment in the North …

Soil management strategies involving the application of organic matter (OM) inputs (crop
residues, green and livestock manure, slurry, digestate, compost and biochar) can increase …

Reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from agricultural ecosystems is vital to mitigate
global warming. Conservation tillage is widely used in farmland management to improve soil …

CONTEXT Worldwide greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) reached 59 Gt of CO 2 eq in 2019
and agricultural soils are the primary source of N 2 O emissions. Life cycle assessments …

Subsoils are important reservoirs affecting soil organic carbon (SOC). However, little is
known about the factors controlling SOC pools in subsoils, and the response of SOC stability …

Rice feeds half of the world's population but faces the pressures of yield demand under
increasing environmental and climate pressures. Diversified cropping systems such as …

Diversified cropping systems, such as intercropping, have shown multifunctionality in
agronomic productivity promotion, pest control, and soil health improvement. However, the …

The practice of cover crops has gained popularity as a strategy to improve agricultural
sustainability, but its full potential is often limited by environmental trade-offs. Using meta …

Cover crops offer a potential biogas feedstock, and to enable continuous operation of the
biogas plant, ensiling can be used for biomass preservation. The aim of the present study …

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 …
