Overview

Observational analysis shows soil carbon stocks differ in forest, grazing, and cultivated lands, indicating land use impact on soil quality.

Key Points

  • Soil carbon stock was significantly higher in forest land, demonstrating the importance of land use on carbon storage.
  • Physical and chemical properties of soil, including bulk density and nutrient availability, varied across land use types.
  • Depth affected soil carbon stock, with decreases observed in all land uses as depth increased.
  • Integrated soil management practices are essential to prevent soil degradation and maintain soil health.
