Conservation agriculture and ecosystem services: An overview

TL;DR: The potential and limitations of conservation agriculture for low productivity, small-scale farming systems in Sub Saharan Africa and South Asia is discussed in this article. But, the authors highlight some research priorities for ecosystem services in conservational agriculture.

Does conservation agriculture deliver climate change mitigation through soil carbon sequestration in tropical agro-ecosystems?

TL;DR: A meta-analysis of soil organic carbon (SOC) stock changes under CA practices in two tropical regions, the Indo-Gangetic Plains (IGP) and Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), to quantify this is presented in this article.

Rice management interventions to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions: a review

TL;DR: The overall global warming potential of each approach to consider the magnitude of its effects on all gases is estimated and a comprehensive assessment of suitable crop management practices for reducing GHG emissions in rice culture is provided.

No-tillage lessens soil CO 2 emissions the most under arid and sandy soil conditions: results from a meta-analysis

TL;DR: In this article, a meta-analysis was conducted using 46 peer-reviewed publications totaling 174 paired observations comparing CO2 emissions over entire seasons or years from tilled and untilled soils across different climates, crop types and soil conditions with the objective of quantifying tillage impact on CO 2 emissions and assessing the main controls.

Solutions for a cultivated planet

TL;DR: It is shown that tremendous progress could be made by halting agricultural expansion, closing ‘yield gaps’ on underperforming lands, increasing cropping efficiency, shifting diets and reducing waste, which could double food production while greatly reducing the environmental impacts of agriculture.

Soil carbon sequestration impacts on global climate change and food security.

TL;DR: In this article, the carbon sink capacity of the world’s agricultural and degraded soils is 50 to 66% of the historic carbon loss of 42 to 78 gigatons of carbon.

a Critical Examination of a Rapid Method for Determining Organic Carbon in SOILS—EFFECT of Variations in Digestion Conditions and of Inorganic Soil Constituents

Allan Walkley
- 01 Apr 1947 - 
TL;DR: WALKLEY et al. as mentioned in this paper presented a critical analysis of a method for detecting organically enriched carbon in soils, in the context of variability in digestion conditions and inorganic soil constitutions.
