Labile fractions of soil organic matter (SOM) have been used as indicators for land use induced changes in soil quality. Differences in soil C pools under row crop production and uncultivated soils may provide information about soil C sequestration. The impact of agroforestry consisting of poplar with wheat, rice-wheat, maize-wheat and sugarcane agro-ecosystems on total organic carbon (TOC) and labile pools, viz. water-extractable (WEOC), hot water-soluble (HWC), KMnO4-oxidizable, microbial biomass and mineralizable C; and organic C fractions of different oxidizability was studied at 22-sites for each land use. Cultivation resulted in decrease in TOC (21-36%) and dehydrogenase activity (by 2.8-3A mg kg(-1) soil h(-1)) compared to uncultivated soils. Labile C pools, except WEOC, were correlated (P < 0.05), though the amount extracted by different methods varied considerably suggesting that each method enumerated different fractions of TOC. Agroforestry and sugarcane systems were characterized by very labile C compared with uncultivated soils and the soils under rice-wheat and maize-wheat systems. Conversely, uncultivated soils and the soils under maize-wheat and rice-wheat held greater proportion of organic C in recalcitrant fractions. Results suggest that soil organic C (SOC) pools in agro-forestiy and sugarcane systems could be decomposed under land use alterations. However, no single soil C pool alone was suitable as a sensitive indicator for land use induced changes in SOM. A composite of soil indicators encompassing labile C, KMnO4-oxidizable C, non-labile and recalcitrant C, mineralizable C, basal soil respiration, and dehydrogenase activity could distinguish different land use systems.
