Soil conservation pays off: after just two growing seasons, better water management increased labile soil carbon by 19.8% with DT+GW and 50.6% with DT+GW+tile drainage, while conventional contour tillage lost 11.2%—showing that BMPs can start rebuilding soil carbon surprisingly quickly.

Only 10% of organic carbon from thawing Pleistocene permafrost in the Arctic that is buried in marine sediments ends up re-entering the active carbon cycle, according to an analysis in Nature Geoscience.

A unique study involving commercial producer fields in the Brown Chernozemic Soil Zone of Saskatchewan, Canada provided further evidence that conservation agriculture practices can increase soil organic carbon and soil total nitrogen. Learn more here: https://wp.me/pclOv9-vT

Image description: Location of the 20 commercial producer fields across the Brown Chernozem Soil Zone from the Prairie Soil Carbon Balance project with respect to the long-term agroecosystem experiment (0MC study) in Swift Current, Saskatchewan, Canada. The boundaries of the Saskatchewan map were extracted from the Canada_Provinical_boundaries_generalized polygon from the ArcGIS feature services online with ArcMap version 10.8.2. The coordinate system GCS_WGS_1984 was used for the geoprocessing of GPS soil sampling point-coordinates and the linear units was in meters. ArcMap version 10.8.2 was used to generate the map of the study area. ALT. A graphic of Saskatchewan showing the study area. The soils are labeled as Chernozems, with one area of Luvisol.

Soil supports plant growth. One way is providing a place for roots to anchor. Another way supports life is by being a resource for plant . Read this blog to learn more! https://wp.me/pclOv9-zo

Image description: This diagram shows part of a nutrient cycle. From the right: Organic residues, soil organic matter and dead microbial life undergo decomposition through biological and chemical processes. Nutrients like ammonium (NH4+) or nitrates (NO3– ) are available for uptake by plants and microorganisms. The NH4+ and NO3– used by microorganisms for protein synthesis and other metabolic functions will be released by microbial cells at the end of their lifespan. Plants will take up the nutrients through their root hairs. © Joann Whalen is licensed under a CC BY (Attribution) license.
