Soil fertility improvement through Enset-based farming systems in central Ethiopia

Key Points

This research aims to evaluate the impact of Enset-based farming systems on soil fertility and carbon stocks.
Integrated Enset-based farming systems were analyzed alongside traditional croplands.
Focus on soil organic carbon stocks and fertility enhancement through perennial crop incorporation.
Enset-based systems significantly enhance soil fertility compared to traditional practices.
Soil organic carbon stocks in Enset systems did not significantly differ from those in croplands.

Abstract

, respectively). However, soil organic carbon stocks in Enset-dominated systems did not vary significantly from those in croplands. We conclude that integrated Enset-based farming systems, particularly those incorporating perennial crops, substantially enhance soil fertility and carbon sequestration. These findings support policy integration of Enset-based farming systems as climate-smart agricultural practices for sustainable land management in the Ethiopian highlands.
