Introduction Regenerative agriculture commonly aims to increase soil carbon sequestration, with potential benefits for human and ecosystem health, climate mitigation, biodiversity. However, the effectiveness of various regenerative practices at increasing sequestration is unclear. Methods This study identified quantified yearly rate in arable cropland vineyard ecosystems through a literature review. We examined N =345 measures across seven – agroforestry, cover cropping, legume animal integration, non-chemical fertilizer, pest management, no tillage. Results Our findings indicate that all effectively increased rate. There were statistically significant differences among practices. Combining these may further enhance sequestration. Discussion propose sequence farmers can adopt, balancing ease implementation effectiveness. To address under-studied practices, we recommend research, including long-term monitoring studies randomized controlled trials perennial systems. recommendations aim while mitigating current challenge limited sample sizes quantifying

Agricultural expansion and intensification worldwide has caused a reduction in ecological infrastructures for insects, herbaceous plants, vertebrate insectivores, among other organisms. Agriculture is recognized as one of the key influences biodiversity decline, initiatives such European Green Deal highlight need to reduce ecosystem degradation. Among fruit crops, grapes are considered most intensive agricultural systems with greatest economic relevance. This study presents compilation management practices enhance performance, which applies generally sector and, particular, viticulture, concerning diversity semi-natural habitats, soil management, chemical control strategies pesticides used cultivation. Through critical review, this identifies set recommendations performance their corresponding effects, contributing dissemination options boost performance. The results opportunities future investigations determining needed conditions ensure both enhancement productive gains, understanding long-term effects innovative biodiversity-friendly approaches.

Abstract No‐tillage (NT) (or zero‐tillage) has been widely used to mitigate the adverse effects caused by intensive tillage. However, long‐term effectiveness of NT is highly dependent on agriculture field management, soil type, and climatic conditions. under different condition fluctuations conditions not also considered adequately in Asia. Furthermore, high demand for food production Asia requires a deeper understanding impact properties crop production. Therefore, this meta‐analysis was conducted using 64 peer‐reviewed articles evaluate organic carbon (SOC), storage, mean weight diameter (MWD), bulk density, water‐stable aggregates, water content, other chemical properties, yield responses. Our results showed that significantly increased SOC content overall than conventional tillage (CT). Likewise, as observed at 0–10 cm depth, 77.0% compared CT. Alternatively, although overall, favoured accumulation C 53.2% CT, difference even more impressive layer Moreover, MWD, available P, >2 mm aggregates In contrast, though did decrease smaller 0.25 CT layer, exchangeable K 81.0% Results while had no significant yield, slightly soybean wheat rice maize NT.

Abstract Besides its carbon sequestration potential, biochar application generally improves soil physical properties, but the magnitude of impact and underlying mechanisms remain debated depend on type, rate, age. The objective was therefore to determine effect rate age properties agricultural soils in a temperate climate. On silt loam sandy soils, we compared fresh (1% 2% w/w) or century‐old (0.5%–1% w/w; 19th‐century kiln sites)‐enriched samples with biochar‐free samples. Biochar pore network characteristics were determined using helium pycnometry, mercury intrusion porosimetry, scanning electron microscopy observation, dispersive X‐ray spectrometry, whereas location particles within structure analyzed optical observations. Fresh decreased bulk density by 16.8% increased saturated water content 16.0% macroporosity 78.8%. These effects attributed improvement rather than porosity. Soil type had limited impact. In long‐term, mostly nonsignificant, which might result from fairly low sites clogging internal porosity clay particles. thus able improve some short‐term, these could no longer be detected very long‐term. Further investigating time change over several decades following additions would seem particularly relevant.
