Soil carbon and microbial processes in agriculture ecosystem.

As global warming progresses, concerns also arise regarding the decline in agricultural productivity and soil degradation. On the other hand, the demand for food is increasing as the population grows, and the maintenance and enhancement of soil productivity to support this demand are becoming important global issues. Soil carbon (C), in particular, plays a crucial role not only in maintaining soil fertility but also as a global C sink. Soil C is a complex product resulting from various biological, physical, and chemical processes, and it is a fragile entity that is vulnerable to inappropriate human activity and global climate change. Soil microbes with efficient C use help reduce C losses and increase C storage. In this context, it is essential to understand the dynamic nature of soil C and microbial processes in agricultural ecosystems.
