Recognizing and Overcoming Difficult Site Conditions for Afforestation of Bottomland Hardwoods
SEPTEMBER 2004 183 In the last decade, about 370,000 acres (150,000 ha) of economically marginal farmland in the Lower Mississippi Alluvial Valley (LMAV) have been restored to bottomland hardwood forests (Stanturf and others 1998, King and Keeland 1999, Schoenholtz and others 2001). Planting of this considerable acreage is due to several federal programs, such as the Wetlands Reserve Program (W...
متن کاملThe Accumulation of Organic Carbon in Mineral Soils by Afforestation of Abandoned Farmland
The afforestation of abandoned farmland significantly influences soil organic carbon (OC). However, the dynamics between OC inputs after afforestation and the original OC are not well understood. To learn more about soil OC dynamics after afforestation of farmland, we measured the soil OC content in paired forest and farmland plots in Shaanxi Province, China. The forest plots had been establish...
متن کاملHigh Nature Value Farmland: Assessment of Soil Organic Carbon in Europe
High Nature Value Farmland (HNVF) is commonly associated with low intensity agricultural systems. HNVFs cover ∼32% of the agricultural land in Europe and are of strategic importance for the European Union policy since they are reservoirs of biodiversity and provide several ecosystem services. Carbon sequestration is an important service that can be supplied by HNVFs as addressed in this study. ...

15 صفحه اولSignificance and value of non-traded ecosystem services on farmland
Background. Ecosystem services (ES) generated within agricultural landscapes, including field boundaries, are vital for the sustainable supply of food and fibre. However, the value of ES in agriculture has not been quantified experimentally and then extrapolated globally. Methods. We quantified the economic value of two key but contrasting ES (biological control of pests and nitrogen mineralisa...
