Agricultural greenhouse gas emissions of an Indian village-Who's to blame: crops or livestock?

Charlotte Hemingway et al.

Summary: This study proposes a carbon footprint assessment method to estimate the greenhouse gas emissions from crops and livestock in an Indian village impacted by both Green and White revolutions. The results show that fertilization, irrigation, and methane from paddy fields are the main drivers of emissions at the plot level. Livestock farming systems contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions at the farm and village level.

Effects of Organic and Inorganic Fertilization on Soil Organic Carbon and Enzymatic Activities

Congzhi Zhang et al.

Summary: The overapplication of mineral nitrogen fertilizer and the inability to recycle organic manure pose a scientific problem in the North China Plain. A four-year fertilization experiment was conducted to explore the effects of substituting mineral fertilizer with organic manure. The results showed that organic manure significantly increased soil organic carbon and microbial biomass carbon, while enhancing soil enzymatic activities. Path analyses revealed that organic manure application played a positive role in promoting the sequestration of labile organic carbon and stable organic carbon. The combined application of mineral fertilizer and organic manure improved both the quantity and quality of soil organic carbon, making it a promising alternative in the North China Plain.

Greenhouse gas emissions from global production and use of nitrogen synthetic fertilisers in agriculture

Stefano Menegat et al.

Summary: The global agri-food system relies on unsustainable synthetic nitrogen fertilisers to increase crop yields. This study estimates the greenhouse gas emissions associated with the production, transportation, and use of synthetic nitrogen fertilisers, highlighting the significant contribution of the supply chain to these emissions. Reducing the overall use of synthetic nitrogen fertilisers can mitigate emissions.

Long-term integrated soil-crop management improves soil microbial community structure to reduce GHG emission and increase yield

Ningning Yu et al.

Summary: "The study findings indicate that optimized ISCM can enhance soil quality, alter soil bacterial community structure to reduce GHG emissions, and increase yield. Different crop growth stages exhibit different responses, with T4 enhancing carbon-related functional groups at the wheat jointing stage and maize mature stage, and enhancing nitrogen-related functional groups at the maize tasseling stage."
