Abstract:Context Cultivating forage crops is crucial to improve feed production, and grazing is an important utilisation method to improve soil fertility. Aim Improving soil organic carbon (SOC) content and reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emission through grazing management from a spring wheat field. Methods We compared sheep rotational grazing and control, and studied their effects on SOC and CO2 emission from a spring wheat field. Key results Sheep rotational grazing improved SOC content (by 23.5%) … Show more
