Abstract
Carbon sequestration is a process of capturing atmospheric carbon dioxide in the soil, reducing its concentration in the atmosphere. Therefore, agricultural methods for improving soil organic carbon can help mitigate climate change. Converting natural forests into croplands, monoculture farming, and tillage are causing the disruption of soil quality and reducing its ability to store carbon. Carbon sequestration depends on the turnover time of soil organic matter and physical and chemical protection against microorganisms. Organic carbon in soils is stabilized through the mechanisms of physical protection, chemical, and biochemical stabilization. Agroforestry offers great potential for carbon sequestration, as trees enable carbon stabilization in deeper layers of the soil. Conservational agricultural practices which can rebuild soil organic carbon include reduced tillage, no-till, cover crops, crop rotations, rotational grazing and perennial cropping systems.
Abstract (croatian)
Sekvestracija ugljika je proces koji se odnosi na prenošenje atmosferskog ugljičnog dioksida u tlo, smanjujući njegovu koncentraciju u atmosferi. Poljoprivredne metode koje povećavaju količine organskog ugljika u tlu mogu pomoći u ublažavanju klimatskih promjena. Pretvaranje prirodnih šuma u oranice, monokulturna poljoprivreda i obrada tla uzrokuju poremećaj kvalitete tla i smanjuju njegovu sposobnost skladištenja ugljika. Sekvestracija ugljika ovisi o vremenu razgradnje organske tvari tla te fizikalnoj i kemijskoj zaštiti od mikroorganizama. Organski ugljik u tlu stabilizira se mehanizmima fizičke zaštite, kemijske i biokemijske stabilizacije. Agrošumarstvo nudi veliki potencijal za sekvestraciju ugljika jer drveće omogućuje njegovu stabilizaciju u dubljim slojevima tla. Konzervacijske poljoprivredne prakse koje obnavljaju organski ugljik u tlu uključuju smanjenu obradu tla, no-till (gospodarenje bez obrade), pokrovne usjeve, plodorede, rotacijsku ispašu i sustave višegodišnjih usjeva.
