Application of Conservation Tillage in China: A Method to Improve Climate Resilience

In the context of climate change, agricultural cultivation, as one most vulnerable sectors, is under threat. Extreme weather and conditions have caused a series problems, such yield loss, more serious pests diseases, declining biodiversity. Conservation tillage considered potential method to improve resilience, yet intrinsic mechanism how conservation functions resilience agriculture uncertain. Here, we performed document analysis explore stabilizes increases crop reduces greenhouse gases. We reviewed definition proposed practice tillage. Our research found that has improving soil health reducing gases enhance resilience. Although there some evidence demonstrating negative impact on gases, still advocate adoption according local conditions. suggest choosing proper practices, rotation, use cover crops, holistic grazing, when used along with tillage, can maximize benefits alleviate possible effects this practice.
