DOES BURNING OF HARVESTING RESIDUES INCREASE SOIL CARBON STORAGE?

The influence of 31 years of stubble burning on the carbon storage as well of chemical composition of soil organic matter (SOM) was studied in agricultural soil of a long-term field experiment. Additionally, the potential of black carbon (BC) produced by burning of harvesting residues, to be lost by...
