Abstract

Soil tillage has a great impact on soil CO2 emissions and is one of the main agro-technical activities that is thought to reduce organic carbon stocks in the soil. For this reason, much was done to develop agricultural practices combining appropriate tillage with the application of organic soil amendments that will lead to an increase of organic matter in the soil, to improve plant development and to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from the agricultural sector. This work examines the results of studies conducted with such conventional and soil conservation practices for minimum and unconventional tillage using manure, as mulching material, in wheat cultivation, on sloping terrain, and determines their impact on soil carbon flows.
