Big win: Trees on agricultural land sink four times more carbon
Recent studies show that carbon sequestered by trees on agricultural land is not well accounted for. If it was, researchers argue in a new study: “Global Tree Cover and Biomass Carbon on Agricultural Land: The contribution of agroforestry to global and national carbon budgets,” total carbon estimate...

| Summary: | Recent studies show that carbon
sequestered by trees on agricultural
land is not well accounted for. If it was,
researchers argue in a new study: “Global
Tree Cover and Biomass Carbon on
Agricultural Land: The contribution
of agroforestry to global and national
carbon budgets,” total carbon estimates
from agricultural land could be more
than four times higher. |
