Soil Organic Carbon Dynamics in Response to Tillage Practices in the Steppe Zone of Southern Russia

Abstract: Soil organic carbon (SOC) content is a vital indicator for soil health. The use of moldboard (traditional) plowing for many years had led to a prominent decline in the SOC and soil organic matter (SOM) in Southern Russia. Application of no-tillage (NT) is a sustainable alternative to conventional tillage (CT) as it offers an advantage for SOC store. The aim of the study was to assess soil organic carbon dynamics in response to tillage practices in the steppe zone of Southern Russia. The conservation of SOC und… Show more

“…Organic carbon in soils is one of the most important fertility indicators. The intensity of the use of lands involved in agricultural use leads to a decrease in the organic soil matter reserves [20]. This leads to deterioration of the water regime, erosion resistance of the soil, and decrease in nutrients [21,22].…”

“…On the contrary, the changes in the SOC stock for the sole cassava and sole groundnut were not favourable at both the harvest of the groundnut and cassava, which shows that conventional tillage practice without residue management, could lead to the loss of SOC in the field [19].…”
