A farming System Approach to Sequester Carbon and Reduce GHG Emissions

摘要：

The environmental performance of Australian agriculture has improved greatly over the past 20 years, largely as a result of reduced soil disturbance by tillage, but productivity is still dependent on heavy, high-capacity machinery which compacts 20 — 30％ of total paddock area in most operations. When we use the same soil for machinery traffic and for crop production, we cause soil degradation, massive inefficiency and major environmental damage. This can be eliminated by the precise and permanent placement of infield wheel traffic, often termed Controlled Traffic Farming (CTF).
