TL;DR: In this paper, the carbon sequestration potential of CA is assessed, both in annual and perennial crops, in the different agro-climatic regions of Africa, and the potential estimate of annual CO2 sequestration in African agricultural soils through CA amounts to 143.5 Tg of C per year, that is 524 tg of CO2 per year.

TL;DR: Evaluating the possibilities of implantation and behaviour of different species of leguminous plants as a cover crop in the organic olive orchard found that Vicia ervilia was the legume that presented the best behaviour in the increase of the nitrate content in the soil.

TL;DR: In this article, a permanent grass, Brachypodium distachyon (BRA); two annual crucifers, Eruca vesicaria (ERU) and Sinapis alba (SIN); and the natural flora of the area (SPV) were studied during four seasons in a Mediterranean olive orchard.

TL;DR: In this paper, a field trial was conducted on a farm in Seville (Spain), where the authors compared conservation agriculture, including its three principles (no-tillage, permanent soil cover, and crop rotations), with conventional tillage.

TL;DR: In this paper, a field experiment was conducted during two-monitoring seasons to examine the soil nitrogen and carbon sequestration potential of three seeded cover crops [barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth), and a mixture of 65% barley and 35% vetch] and a control of spontaneous flora in irrigated almond orchards (SW Spain).
