Early effects of conservation agriculture on soil organic carbon dynamics...
Cambodia has faced drastic agrarian changes over the last twenty years with a rapid and massive transformation of the uplands from forest into arable land. Soil quality... -
Diachronic assessment of soil organic C and N dynamics under long-term...
No-till (NT) cropping systems have been proposed as a strategy to combat soil degradation by storing soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (TN). We quantified the impacts... -

The research brief highlights the impacts of Conservation Agriculture (CA) on soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Cambodia’s upland... -
Impacts of long-term cassava-based conservation agriculture systems on soil...
Although cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is regarded as an important food and energy crop, the effects of its cultivation on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions remain poorly... -
Multicriteria Assessment of Implemented Conservation Agriculture Cropping...
In Cambodia’s maize crop, conservation agriculture delivers clear gains in soil health, an improved yield resilience and emerging economic benefits over a short (2-year)... -
Multicriteria assessment of recently implemented conservation agriculture...
Soil fertility depletion is a major challenge for annual rainfed cropping systems in the northwestern region of Cambodia which has recently undergone rapid agrarian changes. On-... -
