Soil Physico-Chemical Properties And Carbon Credit Under Different Land Use Systems In Mirzapur District Of Uttar Pradesh
Short Introductive summary
The current investigation entitled “Soil physico-chemical properties and carbon credit under different land use systems in Mirzapur district of Uttar Pradesh.” was undertaken in the academic session of 2021-2022 at Rajiv Gandhi South Campus, BHU, Barkachha, Mirzapur, Uttar Pradesh. The study area is characterized primarily by sub-tropical to dry climate, having a problem of water scarcity with rainfall being scanty and concentrated to the monsoon season. To combat these problems, it was hypothesised that agroforestry systems consisting of dryland and rainfed crops with drought resistant horticultural trees will be beneficial to boost productivity of the farm lands as well as help them increase some profit from the increased CO2 sequestered in the systems. To test this theory, an experiment was designed using randomised block design (RBD) to implement the trial, with 12 land use systems (LUS) treatments that were replicated thrice.
