Description

SmartSOIL focuses on arable and mixed farming systems in Europe and will develop an innovative approach using the soil Carbon (C) flow and stocks concept to assess the impact of C management on crop productivity, soil organic C (SOC) stocks and other ecosystem services. SmartSOIL will develop a decision support tool (DST) to enable farmers, advisors and policy makers to discuss and select the most appropriate and cost-effective practices for particular farming systems, soils and climates - in a smart way (SmartSOIL).
