Rapid improvement in soil health following the conversion of abandoned farm fields to annual or perennial agroecosystems
Incorporating perennial crops into agroecosystems has been shown to mitigate soil degradation and improve soil health by enhancing soil aggregation and soil organic carbon (SOC) accrual. However, our understanding of the ability and timeframe for perennial crop systems to build soil health within th...
