Summary
Agricultural use of soil influences the content of soil organic carbon (SOC). Arable farming will reduce SOC compared with permanent grass. The crop rotation has a major influence on SOC, a high frequency of annual cash crops giving rise to a reduction compared with forage cropping including grass leys
