Conservation agriculture improves soil health<\/strong> and yields<\/strong> even in response to rising temperatures. This is suggested by an experiment conducted by a group of scientists including researchers from China Agricultural University<\/strong> and other international academic institutions. The research<\/a>, published in the journal Nature Communications<\/em>, analyses the effects of this cultivation method on soil properties, microbial diversity<\/strong> and crop productivity under warming conditions.<\/p>\n The investigation, the authors write, “provides insights into the potential benefits of conservation agriculture for long-term sustainable food production because improved soil health improves resilience to the effects of climate warming.”<\/p>\n
