The required SOC stock increase to offset CH4 and N2O emissions from ruminant systems varies across global regions.
“The required SOC stock increase to offset CH4 and N2O emissions from ruminant systems varies across global regions (Fig. 4a).”

South Asia has the highest total C-sequestration requirement, 34 Gt of SOC, corresponding to 563 t SOC per ha of managed grassland, which is many times higher than the current SOC stock of 28 t ha−1.
“For instance, South Asia has the highest total C-sequestration requirement (i.e., 34 Gt of SOC). This results in a requirement of 563 t SOC to be sequestered per ha of managed grassland, which is many times higher than the current SOC stock in grassland in the region (i.e., 28 t ha−1) (Fig. 4c).”

For various regions, grassland carbon stocks would need to increase by approximately 25% to 2,000% to offset regional ruminant emissions.
“For various regions, grassland carbon stocks would need to increase by approximately 25% − 2,000%, indicating that solely relying on carbon sequestration in grasslands to offset warming effect of emissions from current ruminant systems is not feasible.”

The current global soil organic carbon stock in managed grasslands used for ruminants is 78 Gt.
“Here, we based the extent of managed grasslands and their SOC stocks on the Global Soil Sequestration Potential Map40, which results in an estimated global SOC stock of 78 Gt in grasslands used for ruminants (Fig. 4b).”

In many regions such as Latin America and the Caribbean, North America, South Europe, West Europe and African regions, the required C-sequestration amount is 1.3-15 times more than current SOC stocks per hectare of managed grassland.
“Such large gaps were also found in many other regions, such as Latin America and the Caribbean, North America, South Europe, West Europe and African regions, in which the required C-sequestration amount is 1.3-15 times more than the current SOC stocks for per hectare of managed grassland (Fig. 4c).”

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.
