Effects on Soil Organic Carbon and Microbial Biomass Carbon of Different Tillage [PDF]
Advances in Computer Science Research, 2015 To research data of soil organic carbon content and Soil microbial biomass carbon of different tillage, the results show that less tillage measures could significantly increase the active soil organic carbon content and Soil microbial biomass carbon. In addition, the contribution to increase organic carbon and microbial biomass carbon is much higher ...
