Recarbonizing global soils – A technical manual of recommended management practices
Author: Food and Agriculture Organization of the United NationsPublisher: Food & Agriculture Org.
ISBN: 9251348979
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 550
Book Description
During the last decades, soil organic carbon (SOC) attracted the attention of a much wider array of specialists beyond agriculture and soil science, as it was proven to be one of the most crucial components of the earth’s climate system, which has a great potential to be managed by humans. Soils as a carbon pool are one of the key factors in several Sustainable Development Goals, in particular Goal 15, “Protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss” with the SOC stock being explicitly cited in Indicator 15.3.1. This technical manual is the first attempt to gather, in a standardized format, the existing data on the impacts of the main soil management practices on SOC content in a wide array of environments, including the advantages, drawbacks and constraints. This manual presents different sustainable soil management (SSM) practices at different scales and in different contexts, supported by case studies that have been shown with quantitative data to have a positive effect on SOC stocks and successful experiences of SOC sequestration in practical field applications. Volume 4 includes 51 case studies dealing with cropland, grassland, integrated systems and farming approaches.

Tierra Fértil: Desarrollando la Agroecología de Abajo hacia Arriba
Author: Steve BresciaPublisher: Food First Books
ISBN: 0935028498
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 81
Book Description
La agroecología puede fortalecer a las comunidades marginadas, restaurar los ecosistemas y proteger las fincas de la destrucción ecológica, al mismo tiempo aporta para frenar el el cambio climático. Estas prácticas son efectivas pero todavía no se aplican en todo el mundo. El libro Tierra Fértil, editado por el director ejecutivo de Groundswell International Steve Brescia, nos presenta nueve ejemplos en los cuales los campesinos dirigen movimientos agroecológicos en sus comunidades. Su trabajo en África, Latinoamérica, el Caribe, América del Norte y Europa profundiza las prácticas agroecológicas en muchas comunidades , estas prácticas y principios los comparten con los métodos de Campesino a Campesino, y establecen estructuras organizativas que apoyan a organizaciones gubernamentales y civiles. Tierra Fértil nos muestra métodos para expandir la agroecología con comunidades rurales para que ellas se beneficien con sus propias soluciones y sabiduría.
