The efficiency of agricultural management-induced practises, which leads to adjusted biomass carbon (C) inputs to the soil and ultimately adjusted soil organic carbon content (SOC) in soil, has an impact on increasing biomass production and soil carbon content. Thus, under appropriate management approaches, the dynamics of soil organic carbon (SOC) represent a healthy balance between carbon input and output. Carbon sequestration is the process by which plants remove CO₂ from the atmosphere and store it in soil-based long-lived carbon pools. Therefore, carbon sequestration generally takes place when the input exceeds the output. SOC in soil can also grow by improving biomass production through management strategies such crop management, conservation farming, soil and nutrient management. Additionally, the breakdown of soil organic matter substantially differs with and without enough addition and/or the presence of organic matter (OM) in soil which relatively dominates the microbial community and activities. The greater OM decomposition by the microbial activities and the greater stabilize C production.
