Forestlands are widely distributed in the dominantly agricultural landscape western Canada, and they play important ecological functions; such forestlands (e.g., shelterbelts) accumulate soil organic matter may receive a substantial amount of nitrogen form surface subsurface runoff from adjacent croplands become significant source emissions greenhouse gases (GHGs) as CO2, N2O, CH4. Biochar nitrapyrin applications could potentially mitigate GHG emissions, but their co-application forest soils has not been studied.

Several studies have highlighted the benefit of implementing agroforestry for rural communities. From perspective socio-economic, can potentially improve smallholders’ income, increase food security, promote gender equality and stimulate cultural activities in areas. Furthermore, enhance ecosystem service through improved soil structure, increased carbon sequestration higher water retention. Despite having many advantages, adoption among communities, particularly smallholder farmers developing countries remains limited. The absence public policy causes little recognition this system to tackle climate crisis as well livelihood. This may be due to, others, a less comprehensive evidence on impacts that simultaneously touch upon social, economic environmental aspects community. review gives special emphasis current depicting characteristics adoption, its benefits potential drawbacks, challenges some countries. outcomes might help related stakeholders make appropriate decisions

Abstract Promoting and increasing the uptake of sustainable agricultural practices poses a major challenge for European policy.

This article examines state knowledge regarding agri-environmental their impact on various domains environment (climate change, soil, water biodiversity). selection was restricted to applicable German farmers. Ninety-eight literature reviews meta-analyses assessing environmental impacts in context were found systematic review academic from 2011 onwards. A total 144 management identified that contribute toward achieving certain objectives. clustered eight categories: (1) Fertilizer strategies, (2) Cultivation, (3) Planting: vegetation, landscape elements & other, (4) Grazing (5) Feeding (6) Stable management, (7) Other, (8) Combined bundles. findings this study suggest some general patterns can be observed benefits different practices.

Agroforestry systems (AFS) contribute to carbon (C) sequestration and reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from agricultural lands. However, previously understudied differences among AFS may underestimate their climate change mitigation potential. In this 3-year field study, we assessed various C stocks across two common (hedgerows shelterbelts) component land uses: perennial vegetated areas with without trees (woodland grassland, respectively), newly planted saplings adjacent annual cropland central Alberta, Canada. Between 2018 2020 (~April-October), nitrous oxide were 89% lower under vegetation relative the (0.02 0.18 g N m-2 year-1 , respectively). 2020, heterotrophic respiration woodland was 53% shelterbelts hedgerows (279 600 Within woodland, deadwood stock particularly important (35 Mg ha-1 or 7% of ecosystem C) (2 <1% C), likely affected cycling between types by enhancing soil labile microbial biomass hedgerows.
