Short-Term Response of Soil Organic Carbon Indices to Different Farming Strategies and Crop Rotation Systems in a Semiarid Warm Region by Aram Gorooei, Amir Aynehband, Dominik Behrend, Sabine J. Seidel, Amit Kumar Srivastava, Afrasyab Rahnama, Thomas Gaiser

“…No statistically significant difference was found for the different crop rotation systems. Given the low impact of the common farming practices in the region, e.g., SIF_no-CR and F-W, on CPI and CMI at 24 months, our results showed that farming strategies with manure application and crop residue management and summer wheat-based rotation systems appear to be more appropriate farming strategies to improve CMI in arable land.…”
