Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Agroforestry systems are integrated combinations of trees, shrubs, agricultural crops and/or animals in the same area, simultaneously or sequentially, that seek to optimize the aggregation of socioeconomic, cultural and environmental values. These arrangements have potential for the sustainable development and use of natural resources. In this complex system, the soil and plant compartments are interconnected, so soil monitoring and management in Agroforestry is a condition for knowledge of soil health and, consequently, a strategy for maintaining carbon stocks and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This Special Issue aims to compile works on the theme “Agroforestry Soil Fertility Monitoring and Management” that contribute to global science.
