Abstract Subsurface tile drainage is used globally in agroecosystems to lower water tables and improve soil conditions for crop production. Although drainage impacts on nutrient cycling and water quality are well documented, its influence on soil carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) stocks in mineral soils remains poorly understood. We evaluated C and N storage
