Soil Organic Carbon Sequestration Rates by Tillage and Crop Rotation: A Global Data Analysis
Abstract
Changes in agricultural management can potentially increase the accumulation rate of soil organic C (SOC), thereby sequestering CO 2 from the atmosphere. This study was conducted to quantify potential soil C sequestration rates for different crops in response to decreasing tillage intensity or enhancing rotation complexity, and to estimate the duration of time over which sequestration may occur. Analyses of C sequestration rates were completed using a global database of 67 long‐term agricultural experiments, consisting of 276 paired treatments. Results indicate, on average, that a change from conventional tillage (CT) to no‐till (NT) can sequester 57 ± 14 g C m −2 yr −1 , excluding wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.)‐fallow systems which may not result in SOC accumulation with a change from CT to NT. Enhancing rotation complexity can sequester an average 20 ± 12 g C m −2 yr −1 , excluding a change from continuous corn ( Zea mays L.) to corn‐soybean ( Glycine max L.) which may not result in a significant accumulation of SOC. Carbon sequestration rates, with a change from CT to NT, can be expected to peak in 5 to 10 yr with SOC reaching a new equilibrium in 15 to 20 yr. Following initiation of an enhancement in rotation complexity, SOC may reach a new equilibrium in approximately 40 to 60 yr. Carbon sequestration rates, estimated for a number of individual crops and crop rotations in this study, can be used in spatial modeling analyses to more accurately predict regional, national, and global C sequestration potentials.

“Conversely, reduced tillage results in soil C sequestration (e.g., West & Post, 2002;Bernacchi et al., 2005;Grandy & Robertson, 2007), and SOC accumulation under perennial grasses grown on former cropland may be partially attributable to the cessation of tillage.”

“A decrease in residue decomposition due to reduced soil tillage (Paustian et al. 2000, West and Post 2002) and reduced quality of crop residues (Heal et al. 1997) also increases SOC.”

In the citing paper
“Monoculture corn has been observed to have higher SOC than corn-soybean rotation (Havlin et al. 1990, Studdert and Echeverria 2000, West and Post 2002) since soybean provides less residue input to the soil than corn.”

In the citing paper
“Although management practices, such as conservation tillage, can increase soil organic carbon content in both extensive and intensive systems ([15](#r15), [16](#r16)), we do not assume any such gains in the AW scenarios between 1961 and 2005.”

In the citing paper
“Ploughing releases SOC and, in a similar vein, no-till agriculture (that may also be used with perennial crops) assists carbon sequestration and decreases soil erosion (e.g.Paustian et al., 2000;West and Post, 2002;Sainju et al., 2003;Lal et al., 2004;Bernacchi et al., 2005;Amado et al., 2006;Montgomery, 2007;Huggins and Reganold, 2008;Villamil et al., 2008;Lo ´pez-Bellido et al., 2010)”

“Examples of such practices include: using improved crop varieties; extending crop rotations, notably those with perennial crops which allocate more C below-ground; and avoiding or reducing use of bare (unplanted) fallow (West & Post 2002; Lal 2003, 2004a; Freibauer et al. 2004; Smith 2004a,b).”

“No-tillage and minimum tillage (MT) systems often exhibit increased C storage compared with CT (Ogle et al., 2003; Six et al., 2002; West and Post, 2002); however, this difference disappears with the use of fallow rotations (Peterson et al.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
