Estrées-Mons
Introduction
The Estrées-Mons platform is dedicated to field crops. This site assesses the effect of agricultural practices and their interactions on carbon and nitrogen cycles in the soil-plant-water-atmosphere system. Nitrate leaching, changes in soil organic matter and greenhouse gas emissions (CO2, N2O) are monitored according to the level of nitrogen intensification, export of crop residues, tillage, pulse frequency and nature of rotation. The key question is to understand how the high variability of carbon and nitrogen inputs affects their cycles in more or less intensified systems.
To learn more about the Estrée-Mons platform and its involvement in the ACBB (Agroecosystems, Biogeochemical Cycles and Biodiversity) system, watch the presentation video.
