Natural farming combines biological inputs, soil cover and crop diversification with reduced dependence on purchased agrochemicals, but its water-conservation claims require clearer separation of mechanisms, measurements and scales. This critical narrative review examines evidence on soil-water management, rainwater ha...

Agricultural soils can contribute to climate mitigation through management that increases organic carbon inputs, limits avoidable losses and sustains favourable conditions for carbon retention. Yet higher soil carbon concentrations, larger stocks relative to conventional management and additional atmospheric carbon rem...

Soil organic carbon (SOC) is a central component of soil health and a major terrestrial carbon reservoir that influences nutrient cycling, soil structure, water retention, biological activity and crop productivity. Indian agricultural soils have experienced SOC depletion because of intensive cropping, conventional till...
