Soil functional zone management: a vehicle for enhancing production and soil ecosystem services in row-crop agroecosystems

There is increasing global demand for food, bioenergy feedstocks and a wide variety of bio-based products. In response, agriculture has advanced production, but is increasingly depleting soil regulating and supporting ecosystem services. New production systems have emerged, such as no-tillage, tha...
