A field experiment was undertaken to evaluate the effect of conservation agriculture (CA) based management on soil biological properties, and on fungal diversity and abundance after 5 years of continuous cultivation. Treatments included four crop managements viz., conventional tillage (CT) rice-w...

Soil biological properties and fungal diversity under conservation agriculture in Indo-Gangetic Plains of India
Sequestration of soil organic carbon (SOC) is an important strategy to improve soil quality and to mitigate climate change. To investigate changes in SOC under conservation agriculture (CA), we measured SOC concentrations after seven years of rice (Oryza sativa L.)–wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) ro...

Monotonous rice-wheat cropping system with conventional management practices have resulted in declining soil
quality and biota in addition to low input factor productivity and farmer’s profitability in western Indo-Gangetic plains (IGP) of India. Conservation agriculture (CA) based sustainable in...
In recent years, increasing water and labor scarcity & production cost, decreasing farm profitability and climatechange-
induced variability are major challenges faced by the farmers of Indo-Gangetic Plains (IGP) in South Asia.
Conservation agriculture (CA) based best-bet crop management practice...

Effect of different tillage and residue management practices on crop and water productivity and economics in maize (Zea mays) based rotations
Assessment of temperature sensitivity of soil organic carbon (SOC) mineralization from soils of long-term precision conservation agriculture (CA) plots is essential to forecast soil C dynamics. Under CA, varying quantity of inorganic nutrient application had differential impact on SOC. At the sam...

Dependence of temperature sensitivity of soil organic carbon decomposition on nutrient management options under conservation agriculture in a subtropical Inceptisol
Conservation agriculture (CA), comprising minimum soil disturbance, retention of crop residues and crop diversification, is widely promoted for reducing soil degradation and improving agricultural sustainability. It is also claimed to mitigate climate change through soil carbon sequestration: we ...
