Abstract:
Carbon dioxide (CO₂) concentrations in the atmosphere and other greenhouse gases (GHGs) may increase radiative forcing and alter the Earth's mean temperature and precipitation. Because of this considerable impact on adiative forcing, there is a rising focus on creating ways to balance anthropogenic CO₂ enrichment rates in the atmosphere. As a result, CO₂ sequestration from the atmosphere or from point sources is the emphasis. There is a lot of interest in stabilizing the atmospheric abundance of CO₂ and other GHGs to reduce the hazards of global warming. Legumes/pulses are appropriate crops for two parts of conservation agriculture: soil cover and rotation, whether as a growing crop or as residues. SOC, POC, MBC concentrations, total SOC stocks, and their sequestration rate improved when prescribed doses of N–P–K were applied to rice and wheat, either through inorganic fertilization or through inorganic fertilizer N–P–K with 50% of nitrogen substituted by FYM or crop waste or green manure. They are, nonetheless, an important complement because having more technical solutions available will make combating climate change easier. Furthermore, a combination of technologies provides lower related costs and more realistic solutions, with the technologies chosen based on local conditions.
