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.
Topics include:

Describe the greenhouse processes and global tends in emissions as well as the three principal components of anthropogenic global warming potential

Present data on U.S. emissions and agriculture's related...
