Keen public interest in soil carbon sequestration will test the scientific community’s ability to deliver effective soil management practices and durable scientific concepts. In this seven-part webinar series we will hear diverse perspectives on key questions that inform how to go about sequestering soil carbon in working lands.

In part 5, “Cover Crops”, Dr. Shelby McClelland from the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization will discuss a meta-analysis of cover crop impacts on soil carbon stocks. Alejandro Plastina from Iowa State University will discuss economic research on impacts of cover cropping on farm profitability.

This series is sponsored by the International Soil Carbon Network in partnership with the Midwest, Northeast, and Northwest USDA Climate Hubs and AGU.
