Biochars have potential to provide agricultural and environmental benefits such as increasing soil carbon sequestration, crop yield, fertility while reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions nitrogen leaching. However, whether these effects will sustain for the long-term is still unknown. Moreover, were observed mostly in highly weathered (sub-) tropical soils with low pH organic (SOC). The northern colder boreal regions typically higher SOC undergo continuous freeze-thaw cycles. Therefore, of biochars may be different from those other climates. only a few biochar studies been conducted regions. We aimed assess on GHG emissions, yield-normalized non-CO 2 (GHGI), N dynamics soils. For this, we collected data four existing Finnish field experiments during 2018 growing season.

Agriculture consumes more than two thirds of the total freshwater planet. This issue causes substantial conflict in allocation between agriculture and other economic sectors. Regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) is key technology because it helps to improve water use efficiency. Nonetheless, there a lack understanding mechanisms with which plants respond RDI. In particular, little known about how RDI might increase crop production while reducing amount real-world agriculture. this review, we found that largely implemented through three approaches: (1) growth stage-based irrigation, (2) partial root-zone (3) subsurface dripper irrigation. Among these, most popular effective many field crops some woody can save up 20 30 % without or minimal impact on yield. Improved efficiency mainly due following: enhanced guard cell signal transduction network decreases transpiration loss, optimized stomatal control improves photosynthesis ratio, decreased evaporative surface areas reduces soil evaporation. The involved plant response RDI-induced stress include morphological traits, e.g., increased root shoot ratio improved nutrient uptake recovery; physiological closure, leaf respiration, maintained photosynthesis; biochemical signaling molecules antioxidation enzymatic activity.

Agriculture is one of the economic sectors that affect climate change contributing to greenhouse gas emissions directly and indirectly. There a trend agricultural reduction, but any practice in this direction should not negatively farm productivity economics because would limit its implementation, due high global food feed demand competitive environment sector. Precision agriculture practices using high-tech equipment has ability reduce inputs by site-specific applications, as it better target spatial temporal needs fields, which can result lower emissions. also have positive impact on economics, provides higher or equal yields with production cost than conventional practices. In work, precision technologies potential mitigate are presented providing short description technology impacts been reported literature gases reduction associated economics. The span all practices, including variable rate sowing/planting, fertilizing, spraying, weeding irrigation.

Abstract. The global nitrogen (N) cycle at the beginning of 21st century has been shown to be strongly influenced by inputs reactive (Nr) from human activities, including combustion-related NOx, industrial and agricultural N fixation, estimated 220 Tg yr−1 in 2010, which is approximately equal sum biological fixation unmanaged terrestrial marine ecosystems.

In the light of daunting global sustainability challenges such as climate change, biodiversity loss and food security, improving our understanding complex dynamics Earth system is crucial. However, large knowledge gaps related to effects land management persist, in particular those human-induced changes terrestrial ecosystems that do not result land-cover conversions. Here, we review current state ten common activities for their biogeochemical biophysical impacts, level process data availability. Our shows ca. one-tenth ice-free surface under intense human management, half medium one-fifth extensive management. Based on review, cluster these into three groups: (i) which sets are available, a good base exists (cropland harvest irrigation); (ii) sufficient but robust lacking (forest harvest, tree species selection, grazing mowing N fertilization); (iii) practices with severe concomitant an unsatisfactory (crop artificial wetland drainage, tillage fire crop residue element harvest). Although identify multiple impediments progress, conclude status availability advance incorporating in, example, or dynamic vegetation models order provide systematic assessment role system. This contributes strategic prioritization research efforts across disciplines, including research, ecological modelling.

Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a long-lived greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming. Emissions of N2O mainly stem from agricultural soils. This review highlights the principal factors peer-reviewed literature affecting emissions soils, by grouping into three categories: environmental, management and measurement. Within these categories, each impact factor explained in detail its influence on soil summarized. It also shown how influences other factors. Process-based simulation models used for estimating are reviewed regarding their ability consider simulating N2O. The model strengths weaknesses managed soils Finally, selected process-based (Daily Century (DAYCENT), DeNitrification-DeComposition (DNDC), Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT)) discussed widely simulate cropping systems. Their evaluated describing components relevant processes representation model.

Climate change and ensuring food security for an exponentially growing global human population are the greatest challenges future agriculture. Improved soil management practices crucial to tackle these problems by enhancing agro-ecosystem productivity, fertility, carbon sequestration. To meet Paris climate treaty pledges, must address validated approaches sequestration stabilization. The present synthesis assesses a range of current potential agricultural (AMP) that have effect on organic (SOC) storage Through two strategies—increasing inputs (e.g., enhanced primary production, fertilizers) reducing SOC losses erosion, managing respiration)—AMP can either sequester, up 714 ± 404 (compost) kg C ha−1 y−1, having no distinct impact (mineral fertilization), or even reduce stocks in topsoil (bare fallow). Overall, subsoil (>40 cm) requires further investigation. Moreover, change, permanent sealing, consumer behavior dietary habits waste as well socio-economic constraints farmers information exchange, long-term economic profitability) important factors implementing new AMPs. This calls life-cycle assessments those practices.
