Agricultural Soils

A section of Agriculture (ISSN 2077-0472).

Section Information

The Section “Agricultural Soils” aims to present high-quality scientific contributions that provide new insights into soil management techniques that achieve a good balance between soil health and agricultural productivities, environmental qualities, and ecosystem services. We will consider land use in watersheds that that balances nature and agriculture to maximize crop production, minimize environmental load, and intensify ecosystem services in natural ecosystems, like cropland, wetland, peatland, grassland, as well as forest. We welcome the submission of articles evaluating the effects of soil management practices such as fertilization, tillage, soil amendment, irrigation, and cropping patterns on plant growth, soil fertility, and soil carbon sequestration, as well as on soil degradation such as erosion, compaction, salinization, alkalinization, acidification, leaching, and greenhouse gas emissions, including the analysis of their relationships with soil environmental factors and soil biological characteristics such as microbial communities and functions. Soil biology encompasses both soil ecology and biodiversity, as well as their interactions with other organisms and their environment. Authors are also welcome to submit studies concerning wide-range and long-term evaluations using remote sensing data and simulation models.
