Abstract
In order to deal with the global change and to reduce emission of greenhouse gas,a number of countries have strengthened studies on carbon sequestration in cropland.Carbon sequestration in cropland is not only an important component for the global carbon stock,but also is the most active part to sequestrate the carbon in soil from atmosphere.In this sense,it is of necessity and significance to strengthen the study on management of carbon sequestration in cropland.Based on the main factors affecting carbon cycle in agro-ecosystems,this paper summarizes the relevant management measures to strengthen the capacity of reducing emission of carbon and increasing the carbon sequestration in cropland,and evaluates the effects of these measures after being implemented at a regional extent.
