Opis

The potential to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and global climate change is one factor driving agricultural policy through programs that pay farmers for practices with a high potential to sequester carbon. With chapters by economists, policy makers, farmers, land managers, en ergy company representatives, and soil scientists, Agricultural Practi ces and Policies for Carbon Sequestration in Soil explores a broad ran ge of topics. It examines topics such as the effects of soil tillage a nd mulch rate, soil monitoring and assessment, soil fertility manageme nt, policy options, and the economic issues associated with carbon seq uestration.
