Plant growth is influenced by above‐ and belowground environmental conditions increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) concentrations enhances yield of most agricultural crops. This review covers current knowledge on the impact CO concentration root dynamics plants in terms growth, root/shoot (R/S) ratio, biomass, length, longevity, mortality, distribution, branching, quality, response these parameters to management practices including soil water nutrients. The effects R/S ratio are...
Abstract Currently, agroecosystems sustainability is mainly challenged by unsustainable agricultural practices that lead to land degradation and amplified climate change. About 25% of the World's total area has deteriorated due improper management, resulting in ~24 billion tonnes annual soil loss. Globally, erosion, caused high‐frequency tilling, crop residue removal or burning, poor pasture inefficient rotations, responsible for >40% deterioration problems. Conservation agriculture (CA)...
Abstract Soil erosion is a serious threat to agriculture and environmental sustainability in the risk‐prone rainfed Himalayan ecosystem. Hence, runoff soil loss mitigation ability of four maize‐based intensified systems; maize ( Zea mays ) + turmeric Curcuma longa ), ginger Zingiber officinale colocasia Colocasia esculenta sweet potato Ipomoea batatas were tested against sole maize. The study recorded 41 erosive events during 2020–2022 monsoon season. A principal component analysis (PCA) was...
One of the main issues influencing quality soil and agricultural productivity is land degradation. In degraded lands, crop cultivation not sustainable without adopting resource conservation practices. Agroforestry systems that incorporate canopy management practices have potential to significantly contribute restoration by preserving natural resources. We hypothesized restoring through a combination tree planting, shade-loving cultivation, management, practice could result in significant...
The soil and water assessment tool (SWAT) was employed to evaluate hydrological fluxes in the Subarnarekha river basin, a coastal tropical region India. study utilized spatially explicit approach, dividing area into discrete sub-basins (166 units) subdividing them hydrologic response units (HRUs) 1335 units, based on exclusive combinations of slope, land use, combinations. With an 26105 km2 surface elevations ranging from 0 1172 m above mean sea level (amsl), basin predominantly features...
Carbon farming refers to agricultural practices aimed at reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and enhancing carbon sequestration in soils vegetation, thus contributing climate change mitigation. Key such as agroforestry, conservation tillage, biochar application, improved crop livestock management helps sequestering both biomass soil, offering substantial potential for capturing atmospheric dioxide (CO2) storing it landscapes. Despite the considerable promise of farming, its widespread...
Butterflies play an essential role in the ecosystem, serving as pollinators, food sources, and effective indicators of environmental shifts. This study primarily concentrates on recognizing butterfly species their diversity Gaya district Bihar, India. A total 48 families butterflies were noted during survey. Of these, 102 recorded for first time from Gaya. 36 documented Nymphalidae family. The most frequently found target area included Ariadne ariadne, Danaus chrysippus, Euploea core,...
Abstract A long‐term experiment (1995–2021) was conducted on litchi ( Litchi chinensis L.) with and without conservation practices, that is, under clean cultivation (LCC) (recommended doses of fertilizers intercrops mulch) practice (LCP) (micro‐site improvement, intercrops, organic mulching) degraded lands. The study aimed to evaluate the impact litchi‐based land uses vegetative growth (plant height, canopy volume, fruit yield, litter production), soil moisture, biomass production, carbon...
Abstract Evapotranspiration (ET o ) is an important component of the hydrological cycle and reliable estimates ET are essential for assessing crop water requirements irrigation management. Direct measurement evapotranspiration both costly involves complex intricate procedures. Hence, empirical models commonly utilized to estimate using accessible meteorological data. Given that methods operate on various assumptions, it assess their performance pinpoint most suitable calculation based...
The 20-year study investigated the effects of conservation practices (CPs) and farmers' (FPs) on various soil quality parameters, yield, economics horticultural land use systems. CPs demonstrated significant improvements in organic carbon (SOC), available nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), compared to FPs. Horticultural systems exhibited higher SOC N P contents than FPs, with substantial variations among different fruit species. also enhanced index, functional diversity, culturable...
Spatial heterogeneity of a river basin increases the predicting uncertainty streamflow using hydrological models, and for such basins calibration prediction become challenge. For large low flow–producing like Pennar India, single-site may ignore spatial heterogeneity, which leads to use multiple-site approach. The present study used Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model develop real-world numerical in large, runoff–producing evaluated performance under approaches. Under approach, was...
