The presence - or absence - of soil organic matter (SOM) has
important implications for agricultural productivity. It could also
have significant implications for global climate due to its role as
a source/sink of carbon. Therefore, it is important to understand
the issues related to the accumulation or loss of SOM, to use what
we have learned from experiments to make sound decisions about soil
and crop management, and to test models and future concepts
concerning SOM management. A database is included with the book,
presenting tabular data for 34 sites in North America.
This report assesses the potential of U.S. cropland to sequester
carbon, concluding that properly applied soil restorative processes
and best management practices can help mitigate the greenhouse
effect by decreasing the emissions of greenhouse gases from U.S.
agricultural activities and by making U.S. cropland a major sink
for carbon sequestration.
