Beschrijving

Soils play an important role in the carbon cycle and carbon farming practices could significantly contribute to mitigating climate change by ensuring soils become C sinks. In Flanders, there is uncertainty regarding the impact of current soil management practices on the evolution of soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks in arable fields. In this presentation an approach to simulate the evolution of the SOC stocks under current management practices across all arable fields in Flanders using a Roth-C based model was presented.
