soil organic matter

open access: yes, 2016
Soil organic matter (SOM) benefits the soil and the health of plants. The SOM is built and maintained by retaining crop residues, growing cover/green manure crops, crop rotation, and addition of compost and farmyard manure. Addition of organic matter to soil helps in water-holding capacity, soil quality, nutrient cycling, drainage improvement, and ...
