Abstract

This poster introduces the SANREM CRSP's Soil Quality and Carbon Sequestration Cross-Cutting Research Activity (CCRA) for Phase IV. The objectives of this research activity are to "quantify SOC in host country project sites before and after CAPS implementation, identify CAPS cropping systems or biophysical elements that improve soil fertility, and relate increased soil fertility to site-specific socioeconomic environments."
