where soil loses the physical, chemical, or biological qualities that support life, is a natural process but it is being accelerated by human activity. Pollution kills microbial life in the soil ...

The diversity of soil microbial communities exceeds that of ... strategies for metagenomic soil libraries are based either on activities of the library clones or on sequence similarities with ...

Researchers found that NT farming increases soil carbon storage, enhances microbial activity, and prevents degradation, making it a promising tool for sustainable agriculture. With the changing ...

"When we conducted global data analyses, we found how biochar as a stable carbon influences soil features, particularly microbial activities leading to changes in microbial carbon," Ren says.

carbon levels in the soil are also rapidly depleted from the decomposition of SOM. The decomposition of SOM is due to the activity of the microbial decomposer community in the absence of continual ...

In reshaping how we think about soil chemistry, Calcium Ammonium Nitrate is helping redefine the role of fertilizers in an ...

Crop rotations have many benefits, including increased soil microbial activity, which may increase nutrient availability, including phosphorus. When crops are rotated, yields are usually 10 to 15% ...
