Soil organic carbon (SOC) pool is the largest among the terrestrial pools. The restoration of SOC pool in arable lands represents a potential sink for atmospheric CO2. The management and enhancement of SOC is important for sustainable agriculture. The cropping system and soil type influence crop biomass under different fertilization. Agriculture acts as both the sink and sources of the greenhouse gases. | Potential and importance of carbon sequestrations in agricultural soils 2017 6 2 1776-1788 International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences ISSN 2319-7706 Volume 6 Number 2 2017 pp. 1776--1788 Journal homepage http Review Article http Potential and Importance of Carbon Sequestrations in Agricultural Soils Rupa Ram Jakhar1 .

The restoration of SOC pool in arable lands represents a potential sink for Carbon sequestration atmospheric CO2. The management and enhancement of SOC is important for Conservation sustainable agriculture. The cropping system and soil type influence crop agriculture GHGs biomass under different fertilization. Agriculture acts as both the sink and Soil organic carbon SOC . sources of the greenhouse gases .Conservation agriculture play significant role in soil organic carbon sequestration by increasing soil carbon sinks reducing Article Info GHG emission and contributing biomass feed stocks for energy use. Adoption Accepted of conservation agriculture with use of crop residues mulch and no till farming 24 January 2017 helps to conserve moisture reduces soil erosion and enhances soil organic Available Online concentration. Sequestering the carbon in the soil plant system through site 10 February 2017 specific management practice may help to mitigate impact of climate change. Introduction In view of the growing world population in the ability to provide ecosystem services within two decades global demand for food is because of soil .
