Description
This book provides an in-depth analysis of the carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycles within agricultural ecosystems, focusing on their roles in enhancing soil health, crop productivity, and environmental sustainability. It explores the complex interactions between crop rotation, nitrogen sources, tillage, and soil microbial activity, emphasizing the importance of sustainable practices for managing soil organic carbon (SOC) and nitrogen mineralization. Through a comprehensive review of recent research, the book discusses how diversified crop rotations, reduced tillage, and organic inputs can improve soil fertility, water retention, and resilience, contributing to sustainable agricultural systems that mitigate climate impacts.
